Through brush and bramble
Along ten feet tall corn stalks
My solid, brave steed.
Art Prescription: I love the way the summer hot sun makes everything so bright.

New Horse at Barn July 9, 2016
Just off the trailer
He takes a breath, and decides
The grass is green here.
Art Prescription: A new horse arrived at the farm today…Space…a registered Paint. Cool as a cucumber, he gets off the trailer and proceeds to enter his new home with enthusiasm. Just amazing these creatures who live totally in the moment.

Beloved foot stool
For reaching up, cabinets
So…decorated.

No Censor July 5, 2016
Young innocent minds
Full of imagination
And without censor.
Art Prescription: Watching children do art is magical. They face the blank page without fear, applying color at random as their little soul’s desire. So different too…each and every one of them.
Index card with watercolor and colored pencil:
Wise July 4, 2016
Independence Day
Red, white, and blue flare, fireworks
Owls watch, curious.
Art Prescription: Me too?
Solace July 3, 2016
I lean on your strong
Full of feed and hay, sleepy
All I hear is doves.
Art Prescription: After all the horses have full bellies, they stand about in a sleepy stupor. I sat with Finn and admired him. So quiet, except for the doves…existential moment.
