Haiku September 8, 2013 Alone, but not Lonely

Glad the birds don’t leave

As summer’s heat fades, my friends

With wings stay around!

Art Prescription:  If you follow my blog, you know I’m having trouble letting summer go…the sun, the blooms, the abundance of flowers! I will adjust. I also love fall and the rainbow of color that explodes on trees! Does the season change invoke the explorer in you?

Haiku August 30, 2013 Courage To Change

Dog barks in distance

Low August sun warms shoulders

Pull rock from my shoe.

Art Prescription:  How long have I walked with that rock in my shoe? Feeling one-sided, out of balance, slightly annoyed. I heard the constant click as my foot hit the path, but didn’t really stop to see what was there. Like most of life, we have to make a conscious decision to pay attention.

Ah, the decision cascade: If this, then that, and what if? And we limp along.

What if it was really as simple as taking the rock from your shoe and moving on one step at a time!!

ps. the rock will be fine, rocks have their place, that’s how they became rocks…you my friend have become water, dynamic and flowing!
