Angel Between
Twin Spirits
Playing more with layers today, and a bunch of new brushes I created out of old rubber stamps that I carved back in the day that I discovered I could make them out of erasers. Wow! That was a day of discovery. Discovering that I could create my own brushes in Photoshop was a day like that too. Today was just a moment of play (not to downplay the value of that).
Restaurant for Birds
I took this photo through the window, while sitting at my computer working. The tree was just cluttered with birdes of all kinds. It was exciting. Then, they seemed to all get their fill at the same time, and the back yard was suddenly silent except for the squirrel doing acrobatics. Perhaps there was the neighbors cat nosing about.
Slow and Steady
Slow and steady works best
when slogging through
the mud of Life
(Unless, one has perfected
tiptoeing across the top…)
Muddled and cuddled
by squishy earth and water
the stuff of dreams or nightmares
And, great for the skin
with other immediate benefits
even as it sucks you in
Just when I thought
I was too deep in mud
The water softened
revealing rocks beneath
And, sun above, cheering
cleared my way
slow and steady
And tenacity arrived
at a brighter day

Bring Out the Sun
To bring out the sun:
Sing, sing
with all your heart
Whether it be silent
on the tongue
or roaring from
your soul’s center
Let your joyousness
wreak havoc
on the dismal weather
of mind
Cloud Ponies
Sun came romping out
so it must be tomorrow
Let’s once again lean back
and zap scuttling clouds
With thoughts of rabbits
and galloping horses
(the child’s game for serious adults)
• • •
Like islands in the sky
equines cavorting in the wind
let’s ride our ponies
Our hearts beating
like hooves of our steeds
on misty ground
over wild and untold heights

Circle Woman
Dancing Heart
Sensing something different
she held perfectly still
as perfectly as she could
While her dancing heart
contemplated this new
experience of transition
Intrepid dreamer
awakening to a fresh day
doe eyes drifting into focus
Riding on the hem
of vision’s misty cloak
