Happy April!


I've got friends near and far
I've got springtime in a Mason jar!
I've got hope, I've got love
I've got everything I could dream of
I've got faith, strong and true
I've got springtime in a jar for you!

"Strange Image": Echoes of William Morris' "November"


I meant to take a picture of this pumpkin, then realized I accidentally took a self-portrait :)
Here's my "face in the woods" creation (can you spot another laughing pumpkin in the lower left corner, and a somewhat stern looking creature to the right of me, leaning in and looking straight into the camera?):


"Yea, I have looked, and seen November there;
The changeless seal of change it seemed to be,
Fair death of things that, living once, were fair;
Bright sign of loneliness too great for me,
Strange image of the dread eternity,
In whose void patience how can these have part,
These outstretched feverish hands, this restless heart?"

--  William Morris, November

"All is vanity..."


"All is vanity, all falsehood, except that infinite sky."

"Bless the flowers..."


My son's trying his hand at poetry:

Bless the flowers,
Bless the bees,
Bless the kids with the dirty knees.

Little Gosling's Rhymes

 
The grass is green
The rain is wet
The world is big
My feet—not yet
Someday I’ll be
A real big bird
I’ll grow, you’ll see
You mark my word
I’ll honk like Pa
I’ll have big feet
And walk my Ma
Across the street

Wishing all mothers a wonderful Sunday, May 8th.

Raindrops on my window


Puffs, pearls, diamonds...what do you see?






"It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to, the feeling for the things themselves, for reality is more important than the feeling for pictures."
