Busy to-do list
A chance to wear many hats
Hour by hour.

Bye February
With your snow and sleet, long walks
Peaceful in the woods.

Delayed Dreams February 25, 2015
Time specializes
In alterations of dreams
It is not too late.
Art Prescription: As I went about helping to prepare the farm for a winter storm, I had a thought of wishing this love had of occurred earlier in my life. Then I realized it’s just PERFECT.

Winter Trees February 24, 2015
Winter trees rise up
Bare branches sculpted with snow
Winter wonderland.

Farm Chores February 22, 2015
Hair salted with hay
Muddy hand-prints adorn pants
Makings of happy!
Art Prescription: I love being out at the farm in the morning with the horses. They greet me close to the gait waiting for their breakfast. Fresh hay is very exciting. The cardinals are singing and the clouds break into sunshine.

This Town February 20, 2015
Been hanging round this
Town for so, so long, walk paths
Just like yesterday.
Art Prescription: As I walked to the bus, lunch in hand, I cornered the UNC School of Nursing. Been hanging around this town for a long time. This, it occurs to me, is my life…
Pet sitting for my favorite neighbor cat…watercolor sketching her while visiting.
