The Awful Necessary Dance of Life — Monday, May 31, 2021

Posted on May 31, 2021 by Dayphoto

The day is full of such amazing, unexpected, delightful sights

Little sightings, fluttering softly on the edge of our every day

Elusive, searching, trotting here and there

A bright golden/red spot moving along — just over there

Sometimes running in a quick and fast tightly wound sprint

A blur of spun gold with a lush bushy tail.

Time is always spent in the pursuit of food

The minutes the seconds, the hours

The pause…so still…the birds are silent

Food.

One life-giving up living for another.

Right after the water was set in the morning

Two days in a row

One field down…two to go!

HAYING SEASON HAS BEGUN!

When the World Truly Glimmers — Thursday, May 27, 2021

The most glorious time of night

(For me anyway)

Is always any time —

When I can see the moon.

In all of its glory.

From my world to your heart,

When the Wind Tears the Earth to Shreds —- Wednesday, May 26, 2021

The is an UpSide to the wind—Sorta

It helps the sap rise up out of the roots of the trees, so the leaves can gather light and we can have shade

It can bring in a storm…it can, not always, but it could

But the biggest thing it does (on human terms)

is it keeps the bugs

At bay. 🙂

Thankfully! Thank You Ever so Much, for your Prayers, Tuesday, May 25, 2021

Terry is starting to feel so much better now. It’s been a huge long-haul, but we are making it.

Six Doctors, four trips to the emergency room, a three-day stay in the hospital, then an operation for gallbladder, plus thyroid medication, plus finally being able to eat again…(he lost 20 pounds) the corner to health is being turned.

What a huge marvelous blessing!

I am so grateful for all your prayers, good wishes, hand-holding across the internet, and hugs both near and far.

You are all such wonderful caring people!

From my heart to your heart,

Linda

YAY! Thank you! Thank you!! Thank You !!! Monday, May 24, 2021

We were driving into town this evening to pick up the motorbike which had been repaired, and there was a really huge bow, probably several miles wide. You couldn’t see the top, it was in the clouds, but I’m sending you the left and right sides of it.

I think it was sent for you. You all need it more than I do right now 🙂

Hugs,
