MAY 17: Lowcountry miscellany


 S



Ken Burns, documentary film-maker
 at a press conference (public invited)
on his imminent release "The American Revolution"



a local shrimp-boat captain;
       recently installed lifelike replica 


a liquor-store giraffe


rental kayaks at rest


cool oldster at a public dance,
Marine Park, Mt Pleasant
 (under the Cooper River Bridge)


a loaded cargo ship proceeds up the darkening Cooper River.


a majestic great egret



TODAY'S HAIKU POEM # 1


Barber's "Adagio" --

string orchestra or quartet

courts the infinite.

Giorgio Coniglio



TODAY'S HAIKU POEM #2

a remote visit

phone-call from Chania:

our peripatetic son

works, plays and prospers.

Giorgio Coniglio



You can find an illustrated 10-line poem about the town of Chania, Crete, in a blogpost on May 26, 2021.
