Traveling
On the road, Sitting in traffic Behind a trailer Containing a small Florida cracker steer standing, gazing about, alert and relaxed… We seemed to catch each other’s eye… Where are you going this solstice night? He moved aside, Revealing a … Continue reading

the moon rises over the waves. soft pink clouds meet the fading blues, lavender teases the edges of everything and white lace foam rises up to greet my feet. Dogs run, and a pair of birds flies off together. again.

Once in a Blue Moon
the wind blows. the moon is full. the chimes ring, and hope appears, full of songs to be sung. who are you to argue with the song? SING!
