June blooms, Queen Ann’s Lace

A short season of spotlight

And then go to seed.

Art Prescription:  I find many metaphors in the garden. We are each here to bloom and shine as best as we know how. So, what are you waiting for?!!!

A deer clears the fence

Horses lift their heads from grass

Blackberries galore.

Art Prescription:  Went out to see Finn this afternoon. So serene in the pasture. A single deer comes bolting out of no where and jumps over the fence. Stellar athelete! Meanwhile there are ripening blackberries all along the woods.

Supine on the couch

My “adventures” have caught up

Nature reassures.

Art Prescription:  After such a stressful couple of weeks, I think today I caved into the exhaustion. I’m not one to be down, but the forces as of late seem to be gravity at it’s best. I did wander out into my garden late afternoon to pick some flowers…simple things bring me the most joy!

Glad is in the heart

On their sturdy dark-green stalks

Gladiolas beam.

Art Prescription:  Visited a dear friend to talk about life as we know it. Beside her porch is a lush garden of tall gladiolas. Glad to have good friends!!
