Dear Zazie, Here is today’s Lovers’ Chronicle from Mac Tag. Rhett
The Lovers’ Chronicle
Dear Muse,
time sweepin’ back and forth
lyin’ with, hoped
you would emerge
and you did
and everything fell into place
the moonlight through the window,
the sound of your breathin’,
the smell of your perfume,
the feel of your skin…
you sweeepin’ across
my life into your place
beside me

how to know
turns out this way
passin’ through
the names
and faces
the missed chances
the sacrifice
that had to be made
the lyin’ without
worth all the grief
to be standin’ here
worth doin’
all over again
if that is the price
to not be another

time sweepin’ back and forth
across the subconscious
lyin’ without
knowin’ that any moment
you will emerge,
slip into your place beside me
and everything will fall into place
the moonlight through the window,
the sound of your breathin’,
the smell of your perfume,
the feel of your skin…
lyin’ without
you sweepin’ across
my mind
knowin’ that soon
the shadows will emerge

Today is the birthday of Cornelius David Krieghoff (Amsterdam; June 19, 1815 – April 8, 1872 Chicago); painter of the 19th century. Krieghoff is most famous for his paintings of Canadian landscapes and Canadian life outdoors. He is particularly famous for his winter scenes, some of which he painted in a number of variants (e.g. Running the Toll).Krieghoff traveled to Paris in 1844, where he copied masterpieces at the Louvre under the direction of Michel Martin Drolling (1789–1851).
Together with his wife Émilie Gauthier, he moved to Montreal around 1846; he participated in the Montreal Society of Artists in 1847. While in Montreal, he befriended the Mohawks living on the Kahnawake Indian Reservation and made many sketches of them from which he later produced oil paintings.
