A lost art, writing?

By horse-back or air.

Field of Horses June 3, 2015
Watching us watch them
The horses assess auras
A rainbow I’m sure.
Art Prescription: Horses fascinate me. Their body language, the shift of an ear.

Two Mares May 31, 2015
Side by side they share
A flake of freshly baled hay
Sunday at the farm.
Art Prescription: Beautiful morning to be out feeding the herd. It fills my senses. Back to studio to work with Sumi-ink.

In the Woods May 28, 2015
Warm May breeze stirs leaves
Tree frogs trill, dragonflies dart
Late afternoon gifts.

Late Spring May 27, 2015
Itty-bit bunny
Sits still in tall grass late spring
You cannot see me.
Art Prescription: Seems my backyard is full of “off-spring.” To those of you who follow me…the little robin from yesterday earned his flying wings!

My heart forever
It’s the place, the smell, it’s home
And there’s no other.

A field of white blooms
Penstemon digitalis
Blue Indigos sing.

Waiting on a Horse May 22, 2015
We drank Prosecco
At the barn, as we waited
For the horse trailer.
Art Prescription: A new horse arrived at the farm today. A beautiful “flea bitten” mare, which means she is white and dappled in grey. The hauler was late due to Memorial Day traffic, but this little beauty got off the trailer calm as could be. She ate grass while the geldings stood at attention in a cloud of excited dust.

Nurture May 21, 2015
To raise today’s youth
Takes a lot of nurture and
A fresh worm or two.
Art Prescription: Fledgling birds everywhere peeping for food.
