To be carefree for the day

IMG_2752   IMG_2755

Now and then, we resort to our favorite
observation point

to clarify the thoughts that tend to
scatter away like petals in the wind

Today, we even forgot why we were here,
enchanted by the song of the pastel clouds

might as well be a carefree soul for the day.

prairie evening charm

like an obedient dog
waiting for his master
an old mailbox
waits for
its owner

Who hasn’t been inspired, one time or another, by countryside evening?
Even dingy, roadside prairie offers some poetic charm. Driving by the
countryside one evening, I was attracted by this weathered mailbox
whispered to me, “How’s it going, lady?” And I said, “Not too bad,
dude. Tomorrow will be better.” The last word lifted my somber mood,
and I found myself humming the rest way home.

One day in April!

In Wyoming we have snow storm even in April.
I’ve lived in the state for nearly three decades, and still I’m
struggling to get used to the weather! Lots of wind and long
winter. I like dry and clean air here though. There is no
perfect place, they say, which I agree. So, I’m stuck here and
love it.
