Wood you?

drumming a beat,

a small band plays

on the tree

beside

me.

I am grateful for the rhythm of life.

Wood you join me!

Where did you come from?

Suddenly, a skink is on the fabric, watching me sew…..

I wonder what he is doing?

Does he wonder what I am doing?

Perhaps,

but I doubt he wonders where I or he came from…..

at the moment,

 

          it is not really important.

Watching

Angels watch us from angles unknown.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We are unaware they care.

Yet, we are called to care for them.

Listen.

Saving

Squirrel something away, they say.

Who are they anyway?

This is a beautiful day,

go out on a limb and enjoy it.

AH Shih Tzuuuuu?

Bless you!

Now can I have that cookie?

It’s the moon you say,

no way, it’s so close, closer than Texas!

All is love.

Pat

In her sleep, she reached out and gave her friend a pat on the head.

and the nightmare stopped.

Comfort is touching.

After the storm.

The yard is flooded.

A visitor arrives

and dries his wings,

before flying on.

 

 

We are blessed.

Dogs & Trucks PSA 1

Driving down the highway,

I see joy and trouble ahead.

How happy she looks.

Like she could jump for joy.

My heart leaps.

I pray she doesn’t.

For I am the car behind her and she is in the back of a pick up truck.

I wish I could follow her and keep her safe.  I can not.  In my vehicles everyone wears a seat belt.  How ’bout you?

Touch

You touch my heart as I touch your head.

Fur and flesh,

together

we are healed.
