Unchanging, Endless, Evening Shadows —- Monday, December 20, 2021

The beauty echoes in the heart

The voice of the earth, the sky: old, watchful

A very ancient strength

Immortal power;  the undercurrent of the lifeforce we live in.

From my world to your heart,

Linda

 

This is Lawrence of Arabia, Called Larry for Short — Sunday, December 19, 2021

He is a talkie-box

Always humming, chirping, singing

Letting his girls ‘know’ where good things are to eat

To run in hide, if something strange comes around

He’s a good boy.  He doesn’t chase, attack humans or try to harm people.

Larry…you are a good bird!

Okay.

There is nothing to really do when it’s terribly cold.

They scare me so much I growl at them and run to the house!

MOM!!!!

I’m ready to come in.

Come Fly, Upon the Golden Currents of the Sky — Thursday, December 16, 2021

The earth is full of amazing energy

it is everywhere,

sometimes you can see it golden

and flowing over the land,

in the sky,

around all things

The world is alive

And there for us to see

if we will just look.

Now to Start the Winter’s Work — Wednesday, December 15, 2021

The memory of green is all we have now

Terry and I have been fixing the fence;

putting up the electric fence, strengthening the five-strand, making sure everything will be ready for when the cows come.

And fixing the road

The start of all the ‘little’ stuff.

Which catches up last seasons work, and gets the farm ready for March, when Spring work begins.

Little Round Holes in My Garden Path —- Tuesday, December 14, 2021

I have been noticing, for some time now, soft, little round holes in my herb garden.  Wondering what they were, I decided I had better start paying attention, not wanting some creature or bug taking hold of the soil.

So there I was, two days ago, raking some more leaves out of the carport, when I noticed

A tiny bird in one of the holes.  Taking great care to not move quickly, yet get a photo or two

I was able to see, just ‘who’ makes the holes with such intent!

For a few precious seconds, I got to be part of a wonderful little experience–a connection, so to speak.

I thanked the Universe for such a beautiful experience!

From my world to your heart,

Linda

 

The Life Force of Our Earth — Monday, December 13, 2021

Go quietly, please, step softly outside

And experience with me— the Life Force of our Earth.

Stand still, empty your mind, and just feel.

It is there everywhere, in every plant, every creature, in the wind, the water,

Everywhere.

Please.  I promise you, you won’t be sorry.

From my world to your heart,

Linda

 

COLD! Very Nasty and COLD — December 12, 2021

Not much snow, but Oh! My! Cold is the word.  Lots of wind and a nasty wind chill.

WINTER has Arrived!

(Terry and I are so grateful we got the corn out before this hit.  Sadly there are still farmers trying to harvest and can’t right now. The farmer on one side of us, and the one behind us, for sure.  We sure hope this passes so they can get back into their fields. :()
