Coronetta

My neighbor and I were admiring my calla lily. She said it's a coronetta (?) in Spanish, blew an imaginary trumpet. I can see the palace guards blowing Calla Lily trumpets as Cinderella emerges from her pumpkin coach.

Alas, my lilies have not returned after gravel was put down.

Interesting things happen late at night. Giant pears, a potted plant and a glass dish start to dance. Color pencil on charcoal paper.

Midtown Sacramento, near the state capitol, has neighborhoods of Victorian homes, some Queen Anne, streets with old Sycamore and Oak trees, so large, they form a leafy canopy that provides much needed shade during the hot hot months.
