Consists of:
Black-Eyed Susans in a blue glass;

fish biting my metallic pink polished toes;

loons calling softly across the water;



old houses, barns, and farms both abandoned and habited;

reading and games on the kitchen porch each night as a family;


kayaking out to see dawn from the middle of the lake when the moon and sun both share the sky;

wandering upon a simple outdoor chapel;

watching Venus rise after each sunset;

warming toes by an outdoor fire at night;

a picnic lunch up on a mountain;

drinking tea on the kitchen porch by candle light, pen in hand;

waking to the full moon just before sunrise, casting a glow over the shore;


the echo of the yips and howls of a pack of coyots, some twenty strong, at midnight;

neon blue dragonflies mating over the shallow water by the pines...

To put simply. this week was surrounded by beauty.
