A Tangled Web


I tip my hat
to the many soldiers
who live their lives
in the tangled web
called war.
Peace.

A Wren and Orchids








We welcome
our little
perennial
house guests.
A pair of tiny wrens
with a song
as sweet
as sugar.
And I visit a local greenhouse
with flowers
that will melt
your heart!
Enjoy a beautiful day!

Wanna' Come Over For A.... Beer?






I mean...a bear!
I woke up
to this little creature
who was stretched out
on our deck
trying to navigate
drinking water
from the pool cover.
I quickly grabbed
my camera and shot
from behind the sliders
in our Family Room.
The pictures are blurry
from the glass
and my excitement,
but I think you get the idea!
Yikes.
Wild Friday!

Monday Morning


Remember
that everyone
you meet
is afraid
of something,
loves something
and has
lost something.

Intuition


"The intuitive mind
is a sacred gift
and the rational mind
is a faithful servant.
We have created a society
that honors the servant
and has forgotten
the gift."

Color


"The soul
becomes dyed
with the color
of it's thoughts."
Marcus Aurelius

I wonder if these flowers
inspired the designers
behind the colorwheel
at Harley Davidson? :)
Happy Thursday!

Luck affects everything.
Let your hook always be cast;
in the stream
where you least expect it
there will be
a fish.

Happy Mother's Day


I love
being a mother.
A mother
Is a poet.
A giver
A taker….
In the darkest hours
Of the night
When the whole world sleeps.
She is awake.
With her child. Alone.
And
they lock eyes.
They listen.
To each other’s hearts.
To each other's breath.
No words need be spoken.
Soul to a soul.
Heart to a heart.
And…,
Every woman
deserves
a child.
To hold.
To feel.
To cuddle.
To touch.
To teach.
To help.
To love.
Alone. in the dark.
Two hearts.
A Mother and a Child.
Happy Mother's Day
Thank You, Mom xo

Wild and Blue


“If the sight of the blue skies fills you with joy, if a blade of grass springing up in the fields has power to move you, if the simple things in nature have a message you understand, Rejoice, for your soul is alive.”

A Rare Find


In my lawn ...
and in my life.
I met some fine people.
I sold them a house.
Years and years ago.
They bought me lunch.
Many times.
And they still do.
And today
we celebrate Richard.
Who's fished the wildest rivers.
Who digs an ungarnished
Martini.
Who's eyes
swell with devotion
to his Priscilla,
and his girls.
and his grandbabies.
So Happy Birthday, Rich!
A rare friend in my garden!
