“Live your life like a lighthouse…”
Father Sky sketched a wondrous winter blue sky this morning. No clouds, just a lone turkey buzzard climbing the circular stairway in the windy sky. My yard was full of birds filling their little bellies with sunflower seeds. All the birds sitting on the power lines had their feathers fluffed, insulating themselves against the cold.…

God has given us butterfly wings of faith…
Father Sky sketched a beautiful vanilla overcast sky today, lot of colors caught up in his clouds, cigar smoke grays, purples and blues. Mr. North Wind blew the bamboo around in a dancing congo line. He had a bite in his wind today, nipping my ears and fingers, showing us who’s the boss before Mother…

“The journey can be more important than the destination…”
Sitting my reading chair in the lady den watching the birds on their feeders, eating the last remnants of Chex mix leftovers from my grandson’s Eagle Scout ceremony, wondering about buying some snow snacks. I need some boiled peanuts, some chips and dip, and some black rind hoop cheese and crackers to survive the up…

“Birds always start the new day with a song…”
I’ve been sitting in my purple yard chair watching all the birds happily flittering around, singing their thankful songs for the beautiful winter day and feeders full of fresh sunflower seeds. The wind chimes were adding their bell sounding pings to the yard symphony. Penelope and Kat were soaking up the warm sunshine sitting near…

Today’s sky was sketched with huge angel wing feathers floating on a crystal blue canvas, so beautiful! When I first walked Penelope the sky was full of jet contrails that were spreading and morphing into large clouds shaped like huge bird feathers. Almost fell down watching the sky while walking. I love gazing at the…

Never stop gathering your acorns of faith…
Father Sky sketched a wondrous winter blue sky today and filled it full of white fluffy mackerel scale clouds. I sat in the sunshine in my purple yard chair this afternoon after I filled all the bird feeders. My birds have enjoyed this beautiful day with its warm sunshine and so have I. Mother Nature…

Life is a beautiful journey…
I’m pondering on the porch. It’s late afternoon, cold but not uncomfortable. I can still see snow on the shaded roof across the street. The flock of cardinals are enjoying the feeders, drinking from the bird baths. A small bevy of doves, bobbing their heads under one feeder, are eating the seeds that drop from…

“Goodness will shine on you like the rising sun…”
Walking Penelope today “I saw the moon and the moon saw me.” I love that verse from the children’s nursery rhyme about the moon. Mr. Waxing moon was perched right behind my house this afternoon in that beautiful dark blue winter sky. I thought he was fully dressed but research on today’s moon says he’s…
