this is our state capitol in montpelier, a few days back a little one, maybe 6 years old, and her mama were standing in the grass and she said, oh mama it's so pretty, is that where president obama lives?
on it's tomb-top stands the goddess of agriculture, grain and bread; her name is demeter. her roman name is ceres.
i am always pleased to witness this golden lady up there keeping her eye on things.
this spring though not particularly warm has been wildly green...and abundant.

a little writing to share with you xo

her chest houses the solar system..
elongations,
oppositions,
flare-ups and stars.
her name could be aurora,
or lunar,
or halley.

from the greek wanderer came planets.
from under my feet shooting stars and fireflies.

i tried to stay up all night, like them, but my eyes wouldn't let me.
now the birds are telling a different story
as i watch the light lay itself across the damp grasses.

it's a story that rises and falls,
it's the rhythm of my breath.


be well xo

this spring time has been glorious.

it's been full of lilacs, wind, rain, sunshine, and the greens are so brilliant and varied every day is a show...lovely.

i have been writing and i joined a group of woman who are working to create for ourselves a deck of soul collage cards. (a bit like a tarot deck).

larry and i have taken to walking much further and faster.

mr. man; birken, who we miss ever so much, had allowed us to slow down and smell and witness the closer neighborhood, so now we are venturing beyond a bit.

i am adding this photo to share as a reminder that beauty is anywhere

and everywhere...

this a reflection on the hood of someone's car.

where did you find something to be thankful today?
