PAPERWING MAGICAL Origami butterflies, tiny papers folded with care, just yesterday created, each magical paperwing. And into my imagination’s garden I release my butterflies, their colorful folded paper wings fashioned with love just yesterday. And within my special garden, they find the perfect flowers, planted for them each one. And they waltz among the flowers, […]
SUMMER GOLDEN As far as the eye can see flowers of golden dance in the breeze, displaying their magic within muted heather and meadows of green. Just yesterday dark clouds threatened their joy and their jubilant dance; but today vibrant and joyful in the warmth of this summer day, their blooms dancing again […]
BUSWAYS AND BYWAYS Wandering and rambling along well-worn paths, some traveled before and new ones I’ve found, through meadows and gardens and forests I’m led; upon ocean waves and airways and railways and busways and byways I’m bound; each day an adventure and loving each step of these wanderings and ponderings that I so […]
LOST IN THE PAGES Connecticut Yankees and knights brave and bold, I’m in King Arthur’s Court and in wonder of it all. The armor, the horses, the thrill of the fight, castles and maidens, a childhood delight as I’m lost in the pages of my imagination once more adventuring down the Mighty Miss with Huck […]

WOODLAND MAGICAL On this morning as the sun begins to rise up over and beyond the ridge, I come to this place where silence speaks as I hear it through the wind. I hear it within the mountain expanses as possibilities abound, eloquent as I listen in the quiet of this place and the rustling […]
TREASURED STILL I found them in that special drawer reserved for most precious things, miniature canvases of paper and silk, folded and woven with love and with care, white-linen and pleated stories unfolding one by one. And as I opened up the fans, and read each treasured word I marveled once again at the pictures […]
FROM THE SOURCE I’ve heard the voice of wisdom as it’s been passed down to me; I’ve heard it through the wind as it’s rustled through the trees. I’ve heard it through the ocean’s waves and whispered in the breeze. And I’ve heard it from those who knew for they have listened well as it […]
TAKE THAT CHANCE BY BARBARA K A CHERYL’S PALS COLLAB Let your heart spin, turn your emotions to a song and sing them all, such sweet release as straight from the heart and completely unrehearsed, past and future don’t exist except in the moment of the song in carpe diem’s name. They say you can’t […]
