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.

Start Your Engines

In the company of the Muse
and a troupe of her affiliates
(or is it her initiates?)

the air vibrates with enthusiasm
creative epiphanies sparking
in the air like mini-lightning

---

One session -  a jolt from the starter
revved up for a daytrip of ideas

---

Regular gatherings
keep the engines running
on a symbiotic think fuel
and maintained by heart mechanics
