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.

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.

Warm May breeze stirs leaves

Tree frogs trill, dragonflies dart

Late afternoon gifts.

Art Prescription: Late day walk at Mason Farm. No day is alike. Always pleases me so…

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.

Art Prescription: Knowing where you belong is a gift to the soul.

A field of white blooms

Penstemon digitalis

Blue Indigos sing.

Art Prescription: Mason Farm hike. Saw Scarlet Tanagers, Blue Indigo Buntings, Chickadees, Titmouse, Eastern Towhee, and heard a couple of Barred Owls hooting.

To raise today’s youth

Takes a lot of nurture and

A fresh worm or two.

Art Prescription: Fledgling birds everywhere peeping for food.

Honeysuckle May 17, 2015

Wild woodsy perfume

Yellow honeysuckle vines

Unruly tangle.

Art Prescription: Walked Mason Farm. The woods are heady with the scent of honeysuckle. This invasive vine winds itself around anything standing. Maybe we dismissed it’s misbehavior because it’s so fragrant.
