summer's here

Photo Blend Overlay from Cottage Arts


sprinklers,
and farmer's markets,
lawnmowers,
and green grass carpets,

singing birds,
and buzzing bees,
lots of shade,
from leafy trees,

fireworks,
and fireflies,
watermelon,
ice cream pies,

summer's here,
loud and clear,
put on your flip flops,
grab your gear.

head to the beach,
for the summer scene,
don't forget,
to wear sunscreen.

sit on your porch,
and eat a peach,
it's summer's bliss,
within your reach.

fireflies




if stella hadn't disappeared,
around the house last night,
i would have missed the fireflies,
twinkling so bright.

i could have gotten mad at her,
and just gone back inside,
instead i followed curiously,
and was happily surprised.

when things are out of our control,
just smile and let them go,
though something might seem negative,
we never really know.

sometimes when things go wrong,
other things go right,
and bring you happy gifts,
like fireflies at night.

beauty true

photo overlay from Cottage Arts

outer beauty fades,
while inner beauty grows,
it's not enhanced by makeup,
or covered up by clothes.

it's not recognized in passing,
it's not seen from afar,
you will only truly see it,
by knowing someone's heart.

to see another's beauty,
you must know her soul,
that's where you will discover,
her beauty true, doth grow.

The Furminator - First brushing. Troy's on the left, Stella's on the right. Second brushing I got that much more out of Troy and about half out of Stella.

i would


if you had a blog, i would read it each day,

if you had a website, in my favorites you'd stay,

if you wrote a column, or published a book,

i'd tell all my friends, where to take a look.

if you were on facebook, i'd be your friend,

if you sold things online, my money i'd spend,

for all of these things, connect me to you,

you're a part of my heart, and i love what you do.
