Moon light chill factor

Murder of crows call from trees.

Sunrise orange sky.

Early day today. I wish I would see every sunrise and sunset, but alas, I generally do not like getting out of bed while it’s dark out.

Art Prescription: Try something new! Get up and get your coffee brewed while it’s still dark out. Open your blinds or curtains towards the east. Now, with a cuddly blanket wrapped around your shoulders and a steaming cup of java warming your hands, watch the sun as it becomes a faint glow. Stay and wait until the sky is awash with color.

It’s not what you are

So much as what you are not

At this time in space.

Art Prescription: Sometimes it’s helpful to think about all the things we put into our lives that we really don’t enjoy. We do it for a variety of reasons, our own expectations or trying to please others.  What if for some period of time we could just be who we are, authentic and real? Write a poem or haiku about this. I’d love to hear your haiku!! send them to me at http://www.bev@beverlydyer.com or post here.
