Happy, healthy, Blessed Beltaine everyone!
I share with you this wonderful day, the lyrics to my favorite cross-religions song. It works for all of ‘em!

He’d noticed before that she did not use the concrete paths that crisscrossed the green expanse between the trees – she always walked on the grass, with her sandals in her hand. Barefoot, she’d make her way from the office building on the next block, to the park, where she’d sit on a bench near the pond and eat her lunch.
She always brought an extra slice of bread to feed the swans.

David Montoya of Magus Press has a contest running too! I don’t know why I’m bothering to tell you all, because frankly – I’m going to win.
Well anyway, the contest involves Magus Press’ first anthology, “Other Things…Other Places“. I snipped this from a post David made:

The person who finds the …
