Books that fill the sky with color

*** by Adriana

Some books fill the sky with color. Some authors leave a distinct hue, their indelible mark in the space beyond the clouds. When Maya Angelou passed on May 28 in 2014, I watched a gorgeous sky take shape at sunset in Salinas, Ecuador. The clouds stretched across the sky and shades of pink lingered before giving way to gold then yellow then orange. It was her sky that evening, a majestic tribute in her honor. That evening I began a Maya Angelou reading […]

*** by Adriana

I have an imaginary pair of wings. Each time I move through certain yoga poses such as the various warriors, I attempt to expand beyond the limits of my fingertips. One day I hope to take off and fly.

Postcard greetings from Galapagos

*** by Adriana

When I arrived at Post Office Bay, which is located on the Galapagos island Floreana, I had my postcard all ready to go. The issue was whether it would go anywhere at all. Without a stamp or an official mail carrier, I had no idea whether my postcard would ever leave the confines of the small wooden barrel I had left it in. If I had been a sailor during the late 1800s, then I may have stopped by Floreana […]
