Right before dawn from my back window. Mars, PA March, 2019
Right Before Dawn.
The trees stretch their branches
and wiggle their trunks
and spread their roots
right before dawn
as if to say,
“Wake up!
It’s a wonderful new day!”
I sip my coffee
and stretch my arms
and wiggle my toes
and gaze outside
wondering how I earned
this undeserved privilege
to be right here right now.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
Daybreak – Mars, PA – October, 2018
The Light of Dawn.
They say it is always darkest
just before dawn.
It gives me hope.
It fuels my dreams.
I will not let the darkness
limit my heart and mind
from seeking and seeing
the light of dawn
and the promise of hope
that comes just before dawn.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
A Fawn at Dawn Watercolor 6×10 140lb Saunders Cold Press
A fawn
I named John
was on the lawn
at dawn.
I yawned,
turned the lights on,
and like a phenomenon,
he was gone.
The beauty of nature
and new life
never ceases to
amaze me
no matter how often
I witness it.
Morning memories…
Cherishing the moments…
at life in between.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
Just a quick little fun splashing some paint on Saturday afternoon in the sunshine after awaking that morning to the sight of two fawns on our front lawn.
At one of my favorite places in the whole wide world…
mostly because I am with some of my favorite people in the entire universe…
I arose at the break of dawn…
to bask in the beauty…
and to cherish the moments.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
the creative life in between
