magical forest

blurry monday

interwoven

poetry

take this poem

buttercup

petals velvet, simple

face up to the sun

curved to hold rain--

look in, all's clear--

wheel of lacy yellow dust

the green exclamations.

-Mary Dalton

northern sky

I never felt magic crazy as this
I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea

I never held emotion in the palm of my hand
Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree

But now you’re here

Brighten my northern sky...

{lyrics by Nick Drake}

secret names

"After he was quiet a long time, words began to come to him in dreams & told him their secret names & this was the way he learned the true nature of the world." -Story People

in my garden...

"In my garden there is a large place for sentiment. My garden of flowers is also my garden of thoughts and dreams. The thoughts grow as freely as the flowers, and the dreams are as beautiful." -Abram L. Urban

everywhere, for a moment

"Lilacs in dooryards

Holding quiet conversations with an early moon;

Lilacs watching a deserted house

Settling sideways into the grass of an old road;

Lilacs, wind-beaten, staggering under a lopsided shock of bloom

Above a cellar dug into a hill.

You are everywhere."

-Amy Lowell

what dreams are made of

Soft lilac, aqua blue, sparkly mason jars, unlimited amounts of polaroid film (i WISH!)... ;o)

PS: Has anyone seen the new cotton commercial with Zooey Deschanel? I just saw it for the first time tonight. Love her!

patience

"Our patience will achieve more than our force." -Edmund Burke

More experimentation with my Polaroid SX-70. Look at those clouds!! The sunsets have been incredible the past few days...
