Happy Fathers Day to a Wonderful Dad!

Yes. Thanks for the rich years of love, laughter and inspiration! Many people join with me here to thank you for your many valuable contributions to this world of ours; your light, your love and your prevailing good humour through many trials not the least. We love you. We cherish you and everything "Stanley Burke."





Summer’s First Morning Awakens

A play of words

A play of light

The longest day

The shortest night

Let the madness of the world fall away today

and you and I dance around the sun



Summer’s first morning awakens

like a precious child

a daisy ring

a four-leaf clover of hope

the full familiar fragrance

that I yearn for has arrived



We stand balanced for a moment

at our height our peak

in the sweet stillness of truth

beyond the pendulum of light and dark



H Burke June 21 2014/15

Friends, Fans and Family of Stanley Burke! It's Stanley Day!

February 8th. Stanley Burke's birthday! He is 92 years young today. As I reached for the phone to call him on Amherst Island, I glanced out my window and was delighted by the sight of a rainbow hanging in the air, right off my balcony by Stanley Park. Clearly this is Da's birthday rainbow. I was excited to share it with him and he sounded ebullient on the phone, and loved my version of "Ode to Joy"played on the piano (mixed in with Charlie Brown.)

Miles of smiles...
Here's to a  remarkable human. We are so lucky he's still with us. We can still laugh together, still share the experience of life together.

He and Peggie will soon travel around the horn on a cruise ship and up the coast of Brazil,
for their next adventure.

Thanks for your comments. All are welcome.

Sitting with Stanley on the shores of Lake Ontario

This beautiful June day I have the great pleasure of sitting with Stanley, in his house
on the shores of Lake Ontario...we're been going over his blog, re-reading things that he wrote years back and he's really delighted to see/hear his own work again. His profound concepts are expressed with resonant imagery.

We also looked at comments together.  He's delighted to know that people still remember him.

Thank you for reading and commenting.
