Tide of Life

Bits, pieces, and whole

The tide brings in all of life

Each day with sunrise.

Art Prescription: No matter where we are in life, the sun rises. We must face the day with our good times and in times of loss.

Time heals our losses, and hope moves us forward.

Hibiscus

Pure power from seed

This plant has a will, success

Her only mission.

Art Prescription: Again I turn to the power of nature. She has no sorrow, regrets, blames no one for her being, and just gets out there and works to bloom her very best. The sun looks down and says well done my little flower.

Home Sweet Home

Hi guys!!

I’m home from the beach and our house had spotty reception. Not a bad thing for vacation I suppose.

I did post daily on Instagram.

This morning I did a grandson and grandmother (social distancing) art class in my backyard. What fun!

Hope you all are staying healthy and creative as our changed world moves forward.

Cheers,

Bev

Everything I Need

Just outside my door

Is everything I need

Backyard paradise.

Art Prescription: I know some of you have really suffered with Covid. I feel so fortunate to be such a home-body.

Beach Time

Jimmy Buffet song

Coffee over-looking sea

Palms wave in the breeze.

Art Prescription: Summer vacations this year may be different for many.

That doesn’t stop you from going to the beach in your mind.

Tangled

Are you in tangles?

The more you pull, tighter knot

What if you let go?

Art Prescription: Relationships are complicated. Sometimes we find ourselves tangled up in someone else’s story.

Then the more involved we get the tighter the boundary lines are drawn.

What if we are willing to let go? Quit trying so hard to please!

Heart Felt

Steady heartfelt good

Showing up day after day

Motives deep in veins.

Art Prescription: We are mostly lucky in life if we have our health, to choose where we spend our time and energy.

Collecting Memories

We have the right now

And we have past memories

Construct, who we are.

Art Prescription: I do seek to live in the present. I seek gratitude for each day.

At night my dreams dig up the past and make me aware that life has many layers.
