Poem: Bucket List

Bucket List

Words by Steven Joseph McCrystal

Jump start the day with a quick defibrillator pulse.
Choose a life to live. A life to love.
Choose big wheels; dips and peaks
from coaster screams.
Go awesome - epic - with silk chute in tow

as you glide in peace for a while;
descending as you go.
Climb, climb, climb: to a mountain top,
and watch the clouds beneath your feet
create marshmallow skies.

A tango, a rhumba, flamenco then twist
to music that makes you shudder with bliss.
Embrace the essence of art in all of its forms:
A sculptured renaissance; a lover’s kiss
captured forever in the sands of time.
Only a moment in an hourglass mind.
Make love everywhere
Make love to the world
Make love
before a ghost train yanks you back on track before your time.

How to Setup Solar

Step 1. Create a Homepage

Even if you already have a home page, you'll need to create a new one since Solar needs a blank page to automatically pull and display your blog posts in the magazine layout. You can create a new homepage by going to "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Standard" page.

Step 2. Apply "solar" Page Layout

Once you create a new homepage, apply the "solar" page layout to the new homepage. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, select the homepage on the left, and under "HEADER TYPE", select "solar".

Step 3. Create A Blog

If your site doesn't have a Weebly "Blog" page, then create a new "Blog" page. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Blog Page".

Step 4. Setup Blog Automation

Come back to this screen and fill in the input boxes with the URL of your "Blog" page and 3 category URLs from that blog.
