thoughts for a Tuesday

time slipping by
moments to remember
moments to let go
moments to celebrate
moments to mourn

so much to share
so much to record
prepare to share
when the next moments
come slipping by

too much to remember
too much to share
choosing
to embrace
the moment
embrace it until the next

greening
of my world
babies
birds
blossoms
colour
bursting
breathing
beauty

embraces
yet again more
embraces
endings
beginnings
always prayer
so much pain
so much joy

always prayer
for our world
for our friends
for mere stranger
for selves
for friends

robins growing
doves cooing
black birds squawking
pedestrian crossing
duck crossing
robin baby
crossing

time slipping by
always prayer

as spring blows through

I am embarking on new adventures
attempting to share my creations
in a more local
face to face way

opportunities have appeared
I have acted to affirm
my interest


this weekend presents 
a chance to show in Regina
at tHe art of the Matter
with friends
 in support of those 
who have had ovarian cancer
and their supporters

hoping you will be with us also
to share art
and friendship

if it is impossible 

for you to be in Regina on Saturday

I will be presenting numerous 

new creations 

in my shop at Etsy 

as I have joined a new team

Angels be with you dear friends

subtle spring

sometimes spring can be very subtle
as it enters our world

sometimes the world seems almost silent when suddenly the leaves burst forth
one sees the robins gathering worms
sitting softly midst the grass
sometimes the first crocuses peek through

the dry hillside without any announcement

sometimes spring can be very subtle

tomorrow

a new day

a day to rejoice

in whatever peace

we may find

within our hearts

within our lives

a day to rejoice

for living

in a democratic land

where choices

are very available

at least 

to most of us

though not all

a new day

tomorrow
