Queen of the Woods

The Queen of the Woods 

Must gather flowers for home, 

Some for a bouquet and 

Some for a crown.

A Church in the Woods

Love this little church in the woods. I wrote a poem about it called, "The Prayer."

The Prayer

The narrow door opens wide
Just room enough for one

To step inside the damp stone walls

And say a prayer to God

 The air falls quiet all is still

No bird is heard, no sound at all

Neath the hushed and silent trees

This sacred place begs bended knee

Words are offered to the sky

With gratitude and humble heart
Spoken softly though they are 

They carry up to heaven

Stirring from the quiet place

Stepping out to all I see

The feeling of the prayer goes on

In stones and earth and tree

A Path I'd Love To Take

I'm considering buying this piece of art to add to my walls. Pretty patina and a path I'd love to take. You could just step right up into that frame and start walking. I love to scour the internet for vintage art because they are one-of-a-kind snapshots from time. You can just imagine the artist all set up and painting outside as they try to capture the beauty and do it justice. Hoping that it comes out all right.

Visiting the Woods

Visiting the woods is the thing I love most and when that happens in the fall, it's even better. Some of the best photographs happen by pure accident. It's finding the beauty that is all around us and framing it in just the right way. I think this photo captures the beauty beautifully. Nature is always ready to perform for the camera. She's a show off for sure.

Magical

"Ophelia" by John Williams Waterhouse hangs in my living room as the centerpiece of everything else. The rug and decor are based upon it, that's how important it is. When you find the painting you love that captures the world you love, it is magical.
