August?





Our little town has a new makeshift wildlife sanctuary.
Although many people are complaining about the situation,
I am enjoying it on a daily basis.
Snowy Egrets, (snowy egrets!),
Heron,
Kingfishers,Turtles, Ducks, 
by the droves. 
So fantastic! 
I’m a Heron addict! 
Enjoy the last days of Summer.
With love and hugs.

Summer!


Leaving the house,
I went out to see

the frog, for example,
In her shiny green skin;

and her eggs
like a slippery veil;

and her eyes
with their golden rims;

and the pond 
with its risen lilies;

and it’s warmed shores 
dotted with pink flowers;

and the long, windless afternoon;
and the white heron

like a dropped cloud,
taking one step

then standing awhile then taking
another, writing

her own soft footed poem
through the still waters.

June



I just happened to take a look at my blog today.
Wow. May 2nd.
30 days since my last post.
I was hoping to be more conscious of my 
little digital scrapbook,
but life gets in the way.
So here we are in June.
I love the month.
It’s light, it’s roses, it’s flowers galore.
Cool nights, warm, sunny days.
This peony was in a client’s yard 
and she called to me.
And I’m so glad to share.
Happy June!
With love and hugs.

They’re Back!


Return of the Snowdrops! 
Have a nice weekend.

Just Friday


Winter is slowly but surely waving good bye.
Buds are beginning to burst
their way through the soil.
Days are longer.
It’s time to plant your peas!
Happy Friday! 
With love and hugs.

It’s been a long four months.

But Spring is tapping

Girl’s Weekend


We have company for the weekend.
Taylor made her 1st airplane ride to NJ,
accompanied by Tiff.
They packed up and boarded a 6AM flight!
Our hearts are overflowing 
just having her in our home.
We’re headed to my niece’s bridal shower today,
where Taylor will be meeting a few family members
for the first time.
Of course, we miss big sister, Harper.
Enjoy the weekend! 
Love and hugs.

I’m So Martha


Public Service Announcement!
Don’t ignore those dormant Forsythia branches
in your gardens.
Next time you’re passing by, clip a few stems,
bring them indoors,
put them in a nice vessel of water,
and, 
In a few days.....
Boom! 
It’s Spring!

Love And Tenderness


So where does love come from?
Is it in your veins? 
Does everyone find love? 
Where does it live? 
How does it grow?
How do you know when you’re in love? 
What does it mean to be in love? 
How do you show true love? 
Is love always fun? 
Is it real? Will it die? 
Can you fake love? 
Can you share love? 
Can you know love? 
Yes. 
Just follow your heart,
and you will 
Love. 
❤️
