    Time and Again/#1LinerWednesday

      Adrift on a sea of velvet dreams- soft, pink memories that fade in the harsh light of reality. I wander through the hallows of the forgotten, where moments sharp as cut diamonds tempt my hopeful heart, whisper my name- beckoning, taunting, haunting, cruel, heartless passion! Tis a lonely journey, wheel of life an endless round,…

  • Kiss me Quick!

    Kiss me Quick!

    Kiss me quick! I’m feeling sick. Waves of desire                                  burn like fire! Singe my soul and make me whole. Kiss me quick!   Twinkle, twinkle little star how bright and beautiful you are against your universe of green, a…

    After the rain…

    The itsy bitsy spider…. 😳 Is a monster in macro!  😱 After weeks and weeks of rain and fickle temperatures, we finally saw a beautiful, mild, sunny day-and just in time for Easter. Everything is flourishing and blooming, both outside… And in!     And they were tasty too! White cake with Orange Cream Cheese…

    In the Garden #SoCS

    When the noise of existing becomes so loud that the cry of my soul is muted and the tears I shed wash over my heart as the anchor of despair pulls me  beneath a sea of dark sorrow, I remember why I came to this spinning orb, Wonderland of diversity- the challenge of survival a…

    The Soul of Spring #SoCS

    In these very troubled days for our world, life has become a roller coaster of emotions for many people, even those who perhaps don’t acknowledge such things. Depression, mood swings, panic attacks and listlessness are all signs of discomfort of the heart, mind and soul.  This prolonged Winter, along with its erratic weather patterns and anomolies,…

    Stretching her stiff, numb fingers towards the pale, new light   Spring stretches and yawns     lovingly lifts her paintbrush,   and brings the canvas to life once more.     (We forgive you for oversleeping. 😉)    

  • Celebration! #SoCS

      My soul soars with childlike glee while every bush and sleeping tree yawns with fresh humility before the light that magically wipes away gray dormancy transforming with pure ecstasy, its palette filled abundantly with Spring’s unique majesty. I hold my breath!   Lest jealous Death- Old Man Winter’s anarchist- arrange a final chilling tryst,…

    Nature’s Face/Photography/Poetry

    At times I trudge through my life, sometimes with steps as light as air,  yet often as though pulling lead balls chained to my ankles; still,  I find constant comfort in the face of Nature.  We have had a dreary sort of Winter, although the holidays were bright and full. The unrest in the world…

  • Once Upon a Time in Paradise

    Once Upon a Time in Paradise

    It’s sad to think it has been nearly four years now since we made the move back from Costa Rica. Since that time we have planned and been unable to revisit our second home on two separate occasions, both due to natural disasters. In the past few days I have been going through photo files…

    From Flower to Flour/#SoCS

    I love this prompt! God knows I love flowers. And bees on flowers. And butterflies on flowers. And now I am using mostly ancient grain flours for cooking, but I still love a squishy homemade roll or burger bun. So, thanks Linda Hill for making it ‘real’ for me this time around. Last weekend was full of…
