BEST-LAID PLANS

5/3/2020

passage from the poem 'To a Mouse', by Robert Burns, 1786
The best laid schemes o' mice an' men
Gang aft a-gley,
An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain,
​For promised joy


Best-Laid Plans are not immune to COV-19.  What might have happened...

Joshua Wright, owner of Pop's Market on Grace, posts a limited menu one day a week on Facebook.  Patrons order via email.  Joshua's mother bags and brings the orders to the table.  My favorite place in the neighborhood.  Tonight it's Creamy Pesto Sauce Pasta with mushrooms, Roma tomatoes, cannellini beans, herbs and Parmesan cheese, plus a freshly baked baguette with LemonThyme Cannellini Bean Hummus.

​The Town of Hill  by Donald Hall
Back of the dam, under
a flat pad

​ of water, church
bells ring
in the ears of lilies,
a child’s swing
curls in the current
of a yard, horned
pout sleep
in a green
mailbox, and
a boy walks
from a screened
porch beneath
the man-shaped
leaves of an oak
down the street looking
at the town
of Hill that water
covered forty
years ago,
and the screen
door shuts
under dream water.
reminiscent of homes, farms and towns that existed on north fork of the Cowlitz River before the construction of the Mayfield (1963) and Mossyrock (1968) dams by Tacoma City Light - memories of vacant land with tree stumps waiting to be covered by water
