Sunshine picture of my backyard
Morning light is magical and so so good
Brisk out there

sun
peace full beauty
a mourning dove landed on the backyard deck
I spied her through the window and said, “Good morning, beautiful”
the sun is shining
the sky is blue
welcome sights
yesterday’s dusting of snow lingers
the air is blustery cold
a bird from The Lord
for me, a widow
peace be with you

moon shine
how does the moon shine
she reflects his light
la lune and le soleil
shine on
shine bright
full moon tomorrow night

shake it off
caught on the sidewalk
in pouring rain
like a mini monsoon
from gray cloud warning
to bucketfuls falling
once home
inside and dried off
sky faucet stops
sun resumes
me and the dog
are still sopping

sky light
I love the way the sun can rise and light the sky as both a fireball of gold and serene pastels at the same time. Blue and I took our favorite park walk this morning. Just a heavy frost on the ground. No snow. No ice. No rain puddles. The air was brisk but the wind was still. Heard songbirds sing and geese honk as they flew. No cars. Another woman was walking alone. She smiled as she overheard me say with a tug, “Come on, Blue. Let’s walk.” We did, as the sun rose and painted the sky both behind and before me. Now home. Good morning.

seasonal observations
The sky is blue
The sun is shining
The snow is glistening
The birds are singing
It is 24*F
Yet all of the above
Makes me dream of spring
The lilacs are budding too
Oh
Lilacs
They are coming soooooon

Saturday morning email excerpt
8:46am
fairy tale light
as the sun rose
this morning
over the sidewalk
woman shoveling
dog chewing
on thorny stalks
the Peace rose
now dormant
long ago planted
by the front door
serene woman
wild and crazy dog
they snow play
after the work
she throws the ball
for him to chase
children sleeping in
it is Saturday
thankful for home
for Heaven above
the woman and dog
were there
under the sky
as the crescent moon
tucked into bed
and the sun rose
washing the earth
in fairy tale light

first quiet stillness
on a moonlit morn
and then…
THIS
lavender sky
clouds lit orange
from below
as the sun rises
along the horizon
looking out
o’er my backyard
intensity of color fading
softer now
as the sky brightens
so fleeting
it’d be easy to miss it
glad I didn’t
though this time
my feet are in socks
I’m warm indoors
leaning on the doorjamb
opening the sliding glass door
just enough to take photos
*snap*
using my feet to block the dog
who is curious
like a cat
my turquoise wind chimes
catch the wind
such a melodious sound
the sky is bright
the sun is awake
it is officially morning
breakfast and coffee await

My front porch view.
Better in person.
This’ll do.
