Author Notes
Light Play
Nebulous - vague, cloudy, foggy
Xanadu - was the summer capital of Kublai Khan's Yuan Dynasty in China, before he decided to move the seat of his dynasty to the Jin Dynasty. The Venetian explorer Marco Polo is widely believed to have visited Xanadu in about 1275. His glowing description of it, created a romantic image that burned in the minds of future explorers and writers.
Zaniness - crazy, funny, erratic
This is an Alphabet Poem that I devised the format of, where every single word starts with a letter of the alphabet in alphabetical sequence. It's like an Abcedarian Poem except that, instead of sentences or lines of poetry, you can only use one word or letter of the alphabet, it is not an ABC Poem that only requires 4 lines to follow the Alphabet, it is truly a word/brain exercise. This book contains 10 of them.
This is a Night Photo that I took along the Mississippi River one evening of the Security Light of the St. Paul Yacht Club.
