“Oh, I love bumblebees. They’re the teddy bears of the insect world.”

(Nick Chase overheard a woman in Rockridge garden say the above, published in Public Eavesdropping, San Francisco Chronicle.)

Even as a kid I've said it doesn't matter if I live to be 150: this life will be the blink of an eye. Poet, author, visual artist, photographer, educator and lover of life (though still working on the hard parts like Covid, violence, inequity), I'm completing a memoir inspired by and largely about dogs and people.

  1. e, first time in probably 40 years, I got stung by a bumble bee! and on the tip of my index finger. Now that’s gratitude for all the times I’ve saved their little lives!!!
