He perches and looks
Hops to get an inside view
Spring real-estate hunt.
Art Prescription: This time of year the male blue-bird begins to hunt for the perfect nesting box. Once he finds one he likes, he will perch above it and flirtatiously call for the female. You know women are picky…If she likes it she will build a nest (typical), and he will help feed the fledgelings until they fly the coop! If you have a place for it put a blue-bird box up. Marvel at their jewel-tone cobalt blue!
Mouth full of dried leaves
She scampers up the tree trunk
To pad her soft nest.
Art Prescription: Look up! and see what’s happening in the trees!
Farmer’s market fresh
Produce, grown locally is
Worthy of a feast.
Art Prescription: During a cold, cloudy, misty day, dreaming of a farmer’s market scene rich with fresh produce of all colors of the rainbow is delectable. Even though the day is gray you still have your imagination!! Draw it, paint it!
Thirty-six degrees
Cedar waxwings and robins
Flock from tree to tree.
Art Prescription: Watching the path of birds flying in unison is one of natures phenomenons. “Such movements are a prime example of emergent behavior: the behavior is not a property of any individual bird, but rather emerges as a property of the group itself. There is no leader, no overall control; instead the flock’s movements are determined by the moment-by-moment decisions of individual birds, following simple rules in response to interactions with their neighbors in the flock.”
Meet you at the milk
She said to him in the isle
The isle of long life.
Art Prescription: Actually coconut milk! Trying a new recipe Thai Coconut Milk Vegetables. Try some creativity in the kitchen!
Lemon verbena
Bergamot mint essential
Oil, poppy seed soap!
Art Prescription: Never under-
estimate the power of soap to wash the day away!
Twenty-nine degrees
At sunrise, time to catch the
Crowded bus to work.
Art Prescription: Even in the chill of a winter morning I relish the calls of the crows in tree tops. Take a moment to notice everything…
Tail wagging hello
Exuberant to see you
Vicarious dogs.
Art Prescription: Take in the warm friendships of the dogs you run in to on your walks!!
Ivy clings while pine
Trees sway back and forth with wind
Final leaves float down.
Colors in my head
Paint, drip, spatter, spread, fling, blow,
Until you see art.
Art Prescription: Start a painting with chaos. Love it as is or develop it further.
