Hurricane September 7, 2017
The Atlantic churns
America together
We love thy neighbor.
Art Prescription: Instead of the differences that have been in the news in the last months, lately I’ve seen Americans coming together to help one-another. People from all backgrounds pulling together, working as teams, spreading love.
This is the country I’m proud of.
Here in North Carolina we are in danger of being in the path of Irma. Be well my neighbor.

Angels August 2, 2017
Hummingbirds whorl by
Feathers are dropped lovingly
Angels even swim.
