rules to live by this day

 always pick up the feather lying in your path  

 rise early to embrace a brilliant sun

 keep a broken necklace for a special card  .. or two

 happy to say that

Kate and Kim will be receiving

  this simple bird from my slow season

. g a t h e r i n g .

at the beach . to breath  . embrace the surf . bare feet freedom . feel the spray . celebrate summer

slow season

... 

...

it is the season for moving slow

noticing smooth bark and heavy clouds 

i would love to send this simple bird to you

i will  draw a name or two later this week . no hurry

a stop

a season for fresh peaches
found along a dusty texas farm road

 he picked out a bucket of sweet summer fruit

 while the simple vines climbing the fences beckoned to me

 light through each leaf  in curve and vein
strength in the curls reaching . holding
a simple stop on the road of life
