Hello from St.Paul, MN this 206th day of the year. The percent of the year in the past continues its upward march and is now at 56.28 %. Sunrise is at 5:50 am and sunset at 8:48 pm giving us 14h 57m 51s of daylight. It is National Cousins Day.

Today's quote. In response to a 2015 National Poetry Month Request from the Academy of American Poetry for his favorite lines of poetry, Congressman John Lewis chose these.

"Beauty is truth, truth beauty, --that is all
Ye know on eath, and all ye need to know."
--John Keats, Ode on a Grecian Urn.


Today's poem is by Faith Shearin.
