Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.

Dragonfly
When the heat of the summer
Made drowsy the land,
A dragon-fly came
And sat on my hand.
~Eleanor Farjeo
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
I couldn’t decide which one I liked best, so you get them both.
The male Sumatran tiger at the Tacoma zoo.
When Wood and Grass Embrace
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.

Desert Scenes
I lived in Utah for 25 years. I used to love to out into the flat desert and take photos. I found some random ones I hope you will enjoy.
“The desert, when the sun comes up…I couldn’t tell where heaven stopped and the Earth began.”

“You don’t need to be the tide to rise and fall, you don’t have to be a wave to touch the shore;
just be a little sand-grain and feel them all”

Sleigh Ride, Leavenworth Washington
There are multiple places that host horse drawn sleigh rides in the city of Leavenworth. It’s enjoyable enough to be added to anyone’s bucket list. The scenery was quite lovely and I took my work team out with me so it was great fun.

Hope is The Thing With Feathers
“Hope” is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops – at all
And sweetest – in the Gale – is heard
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm
I’ve heard it in the chillest land
And on the strangest Sea
Yet – never – in Extremity,
It asked a crumb – of me.
