The sky greeted me and Penelope this morning with an overcast canopy of melancholy white. I sat in the swing and she sat in her little pen and we watched the sun try to burn the cloud cover away. Ever so often the sky would peek its blue self through the cloud cover. It’s amazing…

Today was a pale blue sky day with a pale white cloud cover. The sky turned overcast in the afternoon and was marbled with gray clouds and blue sky peeks. The birds were enjoying the bird baths and the feeders this morning. The yard was so quiet I could hear the bird bath fountains bubbling.…

“I see the moon and the moon sees me, down through the leaves of the old oak tree!” Thought about this children’s poem by Meredith Wilson when I was walking Penelope this morning. I was watching a swarm of fall oak leaves floating gracefully to the ground and when I looked up I could see,…

Been sleeping with the windows open and last night the crickets sang the most beautiful soft choral. The train whistle’s lonely echoes answered each other, the steel wheels of the trains kept time with the music, their clicks and clacks pounding a beat, as the train traveled through the darkness.

Today was a azure blue Monday. The sky stayed dark blue all day and the crisp clouds, starched white, floated alone all by themselves, never holding hands and making a group. Every time I looked up it was blue sky and white clouds, made me think of the pictures of the sky in a child’s…

Father Sky painted a glorious azure blue sky, added lots of white fluffy clouds, sun kissed on their crowns, to float around on the canvas and add dimension.

The morning was just perfect when I walked out on the porch to walk Penelope. Father Sky had painted his sky canvas a deep azure blue, cloudless and clear in the bright sunshine. I…

Ever had a day so wonderful you wished you had video taped the whole afternoon so you could relive the day over and over again. I had one of those special afternoons today. I’ll always be grateful for the memory of this visit with my mother’s dearest friend. She texted me on my phone and…

Ate my breakfast, toast with cherry jam and bacon, perched in the swing this morning, my hot coffee resting in a cup a holder fastened on the red swing slats. The sky is overcast with dark gray clouds hiding the blue sky canvas. Two squirrels are playing chase around the trunk of a large oak…
