Trio

 3 is my favorite number.

while looking in a drawer for something (as so often happens) I found something else. 3 little mesh bags. I no longer remember their source. but obviously I put them aside knowing I'd some day use them for art. & that day arr'd.

over a 3 day period I found other saved items to put into them.

here are the contents:

tokens from 150th anniversary of Elyria OH (1967)

John Steinbeck 15 cent stamp (1979)

marbles written abt in my poem "Washing Marbles" which is collectd in On the Blue Swing (1998)

Santa Fe Trails senior daily bus pass (2010)

The Poet's Bench   Poems-for-All (2020)

bangels from "Bowl of Bangels" -- source for my "Circles" series   (2021)

pennies found on Mission St in Carmel on my 80th birthday (2023)
