Trill of wetland frogs
Music fills the lush creekside
Water reflects sky.
Art Prescription: Frog medicine is a call for rain, cleansing. Our forecast is for temperatures to drop into the teens overnight…brrrr. Take cover frog!!

Suit wet from last swim
Brisk walk into indoor pool.
Ah, the rhythm now.
Art Prescription: Indoor swimming in the winter is meditation. Stroke by stroke my mind wanders…Spring by the river!!

Silhouette in clear cold sky
Flock of geese fly, honk!

Haiku January 17, 2013 Snow Day
Chance of snow flurries
Stirs fun childhood memories
A day off! to start!!
Art Prescription: The excitement of a winter storm warning here in North Carolina permeates the air. Bet the grocery shelves are stripped clean of milk and bread!! Kind-of funny, kind of real! Confession…I find myself looking out the window…is it snowing yet!!
Haiku January 16, 2013 Rx for Rainy Day
Another grey day
Crawl in bed pull covers up?
Or paint a rainbow!!
Art Prescription: Human nature, grey-rainy days equals hibernation. The pull of warm covers and a hubby taking a nap….noooooooooo! So I went to swim!! Came home energized! Another “Stripe” painting. Turned it sideways for a little sunrise surprise!

Haiku January 8, 2013 All we need
Love is all we need
Right there in front of our face

Haiku December 6, 2013 Winter Woods
Around golden bend
Lies a field of pods, grasses
Home for small creatures.
Art Prescription: Hiked our favorite place, Mason Farm! The grey winter days create wonderful contrast on the golds and browns.
Haiku December 5, 2012 Attitude
Her breath touched my cheek
Felt a wisp of hair, rose scent
My secret sister.
Art Prescription: We have three cats, two boys and one girl, who is their mother. We fostered the whole gang intending to keep two kittens. The mother cat won our hearts immediately! Her name is Maya and she is phenomenal! This is a fun sketchbook idea. Draw a line or series of lines. Now what do you see!
