Running down a dream
We chase money, fame, fortune
Chance to simply bloom.
Art Prescription: To be at peace with yourself is to be at peace with others…What are we chasing? A flower plans a whole year just to bloom, if only for one day…

Birds Watch January 25, 2015
Birds watch the sunset
High atop forest, beaks turn
And the moon joins them.

Subtle in January
Blooms, blue-birds, robins.

Low, soft voice of hers

Finding “It” January 11, 2015
Makes you feel alive
Your senses on edge, it’s real
Spend a day…a life.

Deer January 10, 2015
Six brown eyes on us
They stand like statues in grass
Deer at Mason Farm!

Outside Looking In January 8, 2015
Warm glow from windows
Folks settle, evening time
January chill.
Art Prescription: As I walk in the dusk and see all the warmly lit homes, it reminds me of how fortunate we all are. I’m so grateful that at the flip of a switch I can get warmer. Simple daily pleasures. Wish all mankind and creatures warmth…
