Spoken word dangles
A bit of fodder for mind
You don’t take the bate.
Art Prescription: have you ever been tested!? When you know someone is trying to get you to take the bate?
Do you realize when others cross boundaries due to their issues?
Relationships are challenging. I really just want to cruise down the middle lane….
I found a rainbow
When I looked into the eyes
Sweet mare, Frosty Girl.
Art Prescription: Joy is what you find at the end of a rainbow!
Index card with colored pencil:
Sketching in the bed
My pen trails off into sleep
Next day, add color.
Art Prescription: I did this pen and ink sketch last night in a sleepy state. Today I went back in and added colored pencil. Some folks read to sleep…I draw!
8 1/2 x 11 pen and ink and colored pencil
Just off the trailer
He takes a breath, and decides
The grass is green here.
Art Prescription: A new horse arrived at the farm today…Space…a registered Paint. Cool as a cucumber, he gets off the trailer and proceeds to enter his new home with enthusiasm. Just amazing these creatures who live totally in the moment.
Index card sketch:
Different seating
You on a plane, me saddle
My ride takes me home.
Art Prescription: There’s no place like home. What a beautiful day to take my boy Finn out on the trail. He takes such good care of me…sound, soft, reliable.
Reinventing self
A life long evolution
Become authentic.
Art Prescription: There are times when you realize you are doing exactly what the universe intended all along…and that my dears is authenticity. Colored pencil and pen and ink on an envelope.
Quiet on the farm
Horses graze, content, focus
Ears perks, my presence.
Art Prescription: I love walking out into a herd of horses. I watch them notice me with curiosity. Their ears perk as their awareness shifts. Herd behavior has deep roots for these prey animals. To have them accept me and allow me to enter their space is an honor.
Through long green grass fields
Into the woods, by cows, geese,
Trail ride perfection!
Art Prescription: Spring experienced on the back of a horse is bliss. Look down and see wildflowers at their feet. Watch their ears and eyes as they take it all in. You are on their back and they carry you with each step, mutual trust!
Sunlight warms the stall
Sweet oats, leather and hay
Fill contented nose.
Art Prescription: Pinto gets a snack after a cold morning ride. He was such a good boy today. Everything about being on this farm with fresh air and horses feeds my senses.
Compassion: to walk
A brief time in other’s shoes
Give of time and heart.
Art Prescription: The holiday season brings out extremes in feelings. At any given point in life you or I may respond differently to a world where “everyone else seems normal.” No matter what holiday you celebrate, there is bound to be some roller-coaster of emotions. The perfect gift, time and heart!
