Hey puddle and Edwin, that gray cat down on the bottom shelf is meant to represent Rudi. The white one laying down next to him is my girl cat Mirri, one blue and one green eye.
The other cats are pretty much generic. The other two readable titles are "God's Politics" by Jim Wallis and Lakoff's book. There's a picture of the postcard Renee and Demetrius made of themselves and a picture of Howard Dean. The yellow lab bookends are in honor of Larkin. And I left a towel sticking out of the bottom drawer so Renee will always know where her towel is. ;o)
Water gathering
most days I wait
through blue and sun
till dusk
or even later
and the rose has faded
to lavender, to gray
some days, the sleet
has started
and the leaves underfoot
are slick with ice
somehow I'm never sorry
and never learn
one night I waited
till the stars were out
dropped the bucket into
sound, only felt the weight
of it filling
and the night full of stars
and the river full of stars
and the bucket full of stars
come morning, the coffee
is also full of stars

Oh, and the quilt square at the bottom is the Ohio Star pattern in the Amish style...both indiginous to Ohio.
