Most every work day for more than 11 years, Dena wrote a love note, poem or other thought, on a napkin - and tucked it in Marshal's lunch - a ritual of the heart. At the beginning of 2009, Marshal started typing them up. It became our practice to share the Daily Napkin with you, OUR ritual of the heart. Then, in October 2015, Marshal retired, so the whole dynamic changed. Dena took several months to re-evaluate and decide what she was going to do. Since she is also simplifying, she is in the process of incorporating all 8 (including this one) websites into one. With that in mind, the poetry of the napkin is now joined with her art and/or photography images. May you enjoy them. May they feed your spirit.

Twirling Into Light (Daily Napkin)

She danced awake the stars
lifting her veil with panache
 
Dramatic undertones apparent
to even the passerby
 
As she twirled into light
the fiber of her universe
 
Colored past lines
of false limitations
 
Yet grounded in reality
of impossible made likely
in the flash of her jewels
at 9:59 AM
