Twilight, forest wakes

Frogs rib-it, birds lullabye

Owls begin to prowl.

Art Prescription: Watching the sun go down and listening to the night-time creatures awaken is musical!

Spring pear-tree blossoms

Swirl to the ground like snow flakes

Blown about by March.

Art Prescription: The white-tops of spring blooming trees reminds me of snow.

Rainy day nature

Sharp wind blows umbrella up!

Peaceful, creek babbles.

Art Prescription: Even on a grey, windy, rainy, cold, day, I need to get out and convene with nature! Nature walking in the rain is actually quiet soothing. Droplets pitter-patter your umbrella, everything smells fresh, and the sounds of water running downstream is musical.

Gentleness of spring

Warmth and care like summer breeze

Share it with people.

Art Prescription: A day at my nursing job always reminds me of how much I have to be thankful for! Knowing there are many things I cannot change, my hope is to deliver a moment of kindness and warmth. What do you want to be remembered for? What brings you pride and serenity?

Haiku March 20, 2013 Huntress Owl

A night-time huntress.

A riot of wildflowers.

The owl glides silent.

Art Prescription: The magical unexpected sighting of an owl on my morning walk stayed with me all day. Usually nocturnal, this time of year owls are doing a bit of extra hunting for their brood. Owls have long been thought of as a symbol for wisdom. The Native American practice of Animal Medicine says Owl may be asking you to go deep within and know your own truths.

Inches from the ground

Spring ephemerals flower

Some think they are weeds.

Art Prescription: There is no such thing as a weed! Until man started trying to have lawns…

Haiku March 18, 2013 Embrace Love

March 18, 2013 / beverlydyer / 1 Comment

Sleepy-eyed I fall

Into my lover’s embrace

Grey morning, warm hug.

Art Prescription: On the edge of sleep when you haven’t fully connected with the busy world is a perfect time to embrace your loves. Spouses, partners, children, pets, spirit! Embrace connecting with them.
