Old Towne Orange California USA, where my people have lived since 1914 and in this house since 1943.
I Live Slowly
I live quite close to where the Angels play And also very close to Disneyland A home run might break my window someday Or some sparkling stars from the fireworks land On my lawn like fairies and then be gone
I live near Chapman University And hope their fresh ideas will hasten dawn I live in the Antique Capital of California in a haunted house But the ghosts are kind and only bring love
I have a cat who would not hurt a mouse He and I share life simply and meekly In the Plaza Square by the fountain there I have written six books of poetry And I like to read the OC Weekly
Come visit and go to Starbucks with me And I will show you an alternative To the America some of you know Which goes so fast and thinks that I am slow I live slowly in a nice place to live
This reminds me of when my family (ex wife and kids) visited Disneyland a few years ago. It was quite an unforgettable experience (in a good way). Thanks for stirring up great memories, Stevie; and for sharing you life. And there is wisdom in "living slowly." I should learn how. Love and peace to you.
