California Kiss

Giardelli, Kong Pow, Chinatown bliss
I've been kissed
by a City.
A City with a rock
and a bridge
and too much history in between
California Kiss

Snowflake
Slowly reaches to the ground
White dust all around
Chilled to the bone
Now longing to go home.....home...home.....

January 2008 Norther Minnesota

What can I say about Northern Minnesota.... cold & cold & cold of course COLD....I am trying to be original here. Well it sure was neat to see crazy people out in the freezing cold doing weird things like snoshoeing, skiing, dogsledding. Oh wait, I was one of those crazy folks. Regardless it was awesome. I felt most ALIVE when flying down a hill on a dogsled. I LOVED the beautiful quiet scenic views of the Northshore of Lake Superior and the white tipped forestry surrounding. I LEARNT to never take your hat off while out in that furry white stuff...DOH!!! Homer Simpson moment. The snow settles on your hair & is just like rain....ouch...moisture on black girls hair....big problem. Nothing a curling iron & little weave cant fix.....I gotta think of what Im gonna do this year when I go on even more adventurous type trips...maybe go bald? short boy cut? forget about the primarys . vote for what alicia should do with her hair...HIGH priority. :)
