blue bird lane

pretty little cottages
all in a row
Geese white as cotton
happily chase bugs amongst the field flowers

blue birds dart from branch to branch
singing their pretty song
as I pass by down the lane

put together quilt as you go 

Take a picture

Not so easy to take a picture
when the cats want to play

just take the pictures
anyway

It is the basket quilt
to be

Chickens

Last night I dreamed of chickens,
there were chickens everywhere,
they were standing on my stomach,
they were nesting in my hair,
they were pecking at my pillow,
they were hopping on my head,
they were ruffling up their feathers
as they raced about my bed.

They were on the chairs and tables,
they were on the chandeliers,
they were roosting in the corners,
they were clucking in my ears,
there were chickens, chickens, chickens
for as far as I could see...
when I woke today, I noticed
there were eggs on top of me.

Monday

A cold monday morning
A bit of snow
sliding in to the new week

Smile

It was late last night
There he was, home again

A bit shaken and hungry
and I was very happy

I do not understand

one cat is home save
one cat is gone

fire works all day long
and not old year yet

poor kitty,s poor dogs
poor birds  poor animals

Poor Earth

when will we learn

Blue Bird

I had a dream of bluebirds flying in the sky
singing songs of love as they were flying by
flying all in unison singing all in tune
my heart began to melt as they began to croon

 with there bright blue feathers flying high above
singing all together there lovely song of love
i wont forget the dream or the bluebirds that i saw
i hope that they return in to my dreams once more

Follow your dreams

what is Home

Today  I moved my Mother in what I hope
To be here last home

I hope for her she will have some time
in rest and peace

and a bit of joy an happiness
but some love and warm care
that is what she needs

And what is Home 

love to you all

Early to bed

Early to bed and early to rise:

If that would make me wealthy and wise

I’d rise at daybreak, cold or hot,

And go back to bed at once. Why not?

 

 

so bad

feeling so bad

A nice way to quilt

Christmas 2015

It is a full moon this christmas
Hope you all have peace in your hart 

Mother

She's trapped inside the prison walls
That used to be her mind.
The woman that she used to be,
Has long been left behind....

Most of the time it's difficult,
To see our Mom that way.
All we can do is love her now,
As we take life day by day.

About flowers and some stitching

In my garden
almost in bloom
In december

 Have you ever heard
of a flower that never needs
Water ,soil, or sunshine

A flower that stays in full bloom
Through summer and winter
Through good times and bad

 I have one of those.
I call it Love.

day 20 sunday

A house is made of walls and beams
a home is built with love and dreams

Let,s stay
HOME
Have a lazy day

and watch  
the tree,s

How they
come to
Live

Have nice and lazy sunday

Gift

Christmas full of thought,
thoughtfulness in giving things,
rather than the gift.

No Sleep

I cannot get to sleep tonight.
I toss and turn and flop.
I try to count some fluffy sheep
while o'er a fence they hop.
I try to think of pleasant dreams
of places really cool.
I don't know why I cannot sleep -

Spring in December

Birds sing springtime
Diminished in cold
Climate changing

have a nice day
