I made this card many years ago
yes, those are egg shells
there are times when
like an egg shell
on a hard boiled egg
a moment lived, just feels cracked
try as you may
the egg simply won’t peel
in just the right way
it is, what it is
no more, no less
BUT
when life is an art
we find and do it our way

garden sprite tell me true
what will the morning bring
when the sun shines high in the azure sky
bathing the world in a light so bright
will I find my love come night
silly child how will you find
something you have not lost
you need only look
deep into your heart
to see and feel the love
that constantly beats
with each pitter patter of your heart
je t’aime, je t’aime
true love has no beginning and no end

PL Precept # 11 Always be with God
Good morning everyone!!!! I love it here…. I love Canada and the four seasons, it is a photographer/writer’s dream. Something new everyday, today the buds are breaking through the bark, little heads are peaking through. Excitement is in the air.
I don’t think there would have been room for a go-cart in the parking lot at the golf course I passed yesterday. The driving range was the same. Of course, now is also the time that everyone wants to throw open the doors, and get at the spring cleaning,
The enthusiasm is there, maybe not the same glee, but the passion and desire to get at it, and have it done is there. This desire to be out in the sunshine and spring showers seems to be everywhere,
There is no great mystery about life, it simply is an every changing world, that like the nature that we are part of, we all have seasons of our own. Learning to embrace change and to allow our creativity to flow (adapting to changes and challenges), is one of the best skills we can have and hone.
Say YES today, be happy whatever you set your mind to doing. No matter the weather, it doesnt’ matter if it rains or shines, whether you are happy or not … is determined by YOUR state of mind.
You own the day.
Pass it around..

There are moments when I am caught up in what I see. We were in a drive through, when suddenly an ordinary moment became one of dimension and depth.
I was drawn into another world, each blade, each stem took on personality of its own. I wanted to capture that moment, and I did. It all took place in probably less than a minute.
PL Precept #19
Begin Once you Perceive
Even now, hours later, when I look at that moment in time, these pictures, speak volumes to me. I want to experience every blade. each leaf, and discover the marvel of the textures in the bark
How awesome. Simplicity, I was inspired, I took action, and I’m blessed now with the happy feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction… Life is good.I so love being part of it. Thank you for sharing the journey with me. =^_^=

There is such beauty and grace
when a horse and rider
take flight and together
mount the challenge
and conquer the moment
the moment didn’t just happen
the rider and the horse
trained and trained
both were ready for the challenge
they both faced
and when the time came
they flew as one
that moment shared
that bond, that connection
once forged
is like the nature that surrounds us
it will flow and ebb
but it will never end
faith,
when one believes
new experiences
always open up
begin each day with faith
that all your experiences in life
will carry you through
whatever comes your way

Pl Precept # 18 Each Moment is a Turning Point
location, Perth Ontario
2 good cafe’s to try Fieldhouse Bakery
Crossroads Tea Room
some rooms are very small and confining
and if one could
they would keep you in that room
allowing only the essentials
not out of cruelty
but under the false illusion
they are protecting you
It is true that a door can shut out elements
restrict freedom
and bring with it the clouds of gray
like on a cold winters day
The beauty of a door
is that it is meant to open and close
one needs only to believe
they hold they key
and trust in me
we all do (hold the key)
appreciate the beauty of the door
understand that its presence
is not a menace
simply a challenge in that moment
tomorrow
tomorrow is guaranteed to come
and when it does
it is a brand new day
stay or walk away
for YOU
hold the key (you really do)
to your destiny

St. Andrew, Ontario.Canada
I found my thrill
check out the grill
Bonus, the owner when he got this vehicle
got a second cab for it..
I was over the moon
To wander and discover
all there was to see that afternoon
would have been impossible to do
what time I did have
amongst the rusted tarnished metal
was pure and simple joy
each piece told a story
each shade of rust and weathered paint
presented me with a genuine
connection that I found intoxicating
my encounter with
the treasures
was not sophisticated art
but it animated
my heart

found near Bennett Lake, Ontario
worn weary browns, with shades of
faded mustard and golden rod
wait for the warmth of spring
to revitalize and invigorate
for now
the landscape, waits.

PL Precept #16 All things Progress and Develop
taken old Hwy 17 towards Montreal
Jessup’s Falls conservation area
drawn like a moth to a flame
your silence called out to me
I knew, I needed a closer look
unlike in the books
my heart didn’t race
in fact, of emotion there was little trace
just the desire to get closer
my steps were sure as if
as if, somehow I knew
we had met before
the years had aged you
your tenants not always kind
there was not a blind
to hide your scarred and broken
parts inside.
you did your best,
you really did
sometimes, it really doesn’t matter
for life moves on
and you are left
not bare, but silent
the memories of what was
still visible on your face
you’ve left the door open
for what will be, will be
you’ve come this far
at night under the stars
you’ll sleep the gentle sleep
of one who has loved
knowing, love will always be
the sound of silence
is a living memory
love is never lost
love IS
Q
Namaste – Oyashikiri
PL Precept # 11 Always be with God
a glove got lost
that glove was found
and left to wait
should it be returned to its mate
some other day
meanwhile there it sits
out of harms way
a solitary reminder
that in some cases
it’s not that we don’t care
that we are no longer there
but life got in the way
too busy with other things
we missed realizing
that a part of us
fell away
& got left behind
this happens
when we are not
in tune with our mind
and
caught by surprise
when we find
that
one of two
is gone
leaving only
one
incomplete
For to be a perfect ONE ( pair)
it takes
2 to be 1
Yesterday was a day of sun and cloud, being a work day, this boat launch area was quiet, in the summer months when we dive by, it would be difficult to even find a place to park. We stopped here to let the dogs have some outdoor fun.
This was the colour of the day, yes sunshine is nice, but I love the rather subdued and subtle shades of an over cast day, if every day was sunny, we wouldn’t get to see the full palette of Mother’s Nature’s diverse and endless inventory of wonders.
Here is another Found? or Lost? for you….
While visiting a Tim Hortons (on the American side of the border, I came across the above dime and penny, laid out just as you see them … I didn’t touch them.. I looked and found it interesting that someone would just leave them on the vanity, especially sitting there so neatly. Were they in hand, and just laid down while hands were being washed… Maybe a child had them, and left them when they were being tended to by a parent.. I didn’t know… but I wasn’t going to disturb them, so, I took a picture.
Life is interesting, fun and intriguing, how we accept our daily challenges and adventures is up to us.. Accepting, enjoying and letting go of moments.. is a life long challenge, sometimes it is easy sometimes it is not…. knowing that whatever it is, it is OUR life. Yours and mine… I’m just so happy knowing that you are part of my world, In loving, sharing, caring, the exchange of ideas, thoughts,sights and sounds,.. WOW… what gifts.
