Gary Jackson: Fire When Ready Pottery
A Chicago potter’s somewhat slanted view of clay & play
Categories: bike, friends, sunrise

As you may have noticed… I like to bike. I like sunrises.
So part of my “morning addiction” is an invigorating bicycle ride
along the Chicago lakefront taking pictures of the sunrise along the way.
And then sharing them with family & friends. Some of the photos make it here onto the blog…
but there are many more as it’s practically a daily “addiction.” If you’d like to get on the
e-mail list of the “daily pictures” just e-mail me and let me know. You’ll get a LOT more photos
than what you see here! E-mail me at:  gary@firewhenreadypottery.com

One such daily photo “admirer” is my friend Rick Halstead…
who decided to share his poetic wordsmithing with the rest of us.

During sunshine and rain
Wind and fog.
What kind of day
It will prologue.

A striking view
For all to see.
How many viewers
Are just like me?

We see the day
In spring and fall.
Rich with color
We see them all.

Reds and blues
A tranquil mix.
What would life be
Without Gary’s pics?
