Watching Clara play
soccer — light touches from her
size 10 cleat-clad feet.

Blue, blue, blue — three eggs
in the robin’s nest so far.
Industrious bird.

Took Clara to Bard.
She starts the next phase of life
at a lovely place.

Night call from Clara.
She wanted to share Denver
sky and stars with me.

Early airport run —
Clara’s off to Denver with
her guitar in hand.

A birthday shared by
Clara and Shakespeare. My girl’s
in good company.

Last night, heard my girls
sing in a bar. I sat, drank
beer, and was amazed.

First, memorial
service, now to the Commons
to hear the girls sing.

Some Big Red soccer —
Cornell women v. Colgate.
Please, please, please, please win.
