A Day In The Life, And Mind, Of Me

Mariah Loves Earth,  What a Day, What a Life , 2025 So I press the up button on the stove timer and set it to nine minutes. It will be nine minutes until my fiorelli will be done and then I will mix it all up with my homemade sun dried tomato pesto where I accidentally initially grated the Pecorino Romano instead of the Parmigiano Reggiano, so it was a bit saltier than expected, but I balanced it out with more Parmigiano Reggiano. I have about a dozen halved cherry tomatoes baking in the oven at a randomly chosen temperature—something like 375 degrees Fahrenheit because that makes the most sense—and I don't have a time set because I figure they will be perfect once I remove my pasta from the pot in nine minutes.  As I am waiting, I am sipping on my Greenhouse Canada  " Gatsby" organic cold-pressed juice.

An Ode for Distant Lovebirds

Mariah Loves Earth, Species Pigeon/Emotion Love, 2024


Stars that shimmer and gleam

Bring to me a single dream.

A face not seen for quite some time

Shines bright in my yearning mind.


Beloved hearts that once were one

Unravel like a bow undone.

Two satin ends a yard apart,

Are from one ribbon,

That led to one start.


My beloved’s stare my heart doth seek

But at that thought I do grow weak.

A whimper, a quiver, a thought, a dream

A lonely tear to remain with me

My heart has flown to a distant land

And there it remains in my beloved’s hand.

  1. Mariah, your emotional prose evokes a deep longing and a sense of separation. It seems you're yearning for someone dear to you, someone whose absence leaves a void in your heart. The imagery of stars and dreams adds a touch of wistful beauty to your emotions and language. If you'd like to share more or discuss further, feel free.

  2. This is amazing.

    Some feeling guided me to this. If this is Whom I think it is.. if MRU and hammocks ring any bells.. It would be meaningful for me to have the opportunity to discuss something with you that is really rather important to me.
