WINTER SOLACE

 WINTER SOLACE? 

The White Stag in lower right appears.


Planets and stars print a stellar skyscape.   Whitecaps of clouds and snows are possible~ "perhaps."

WONDERLAND

Winter Wonderland~ not quite snowy here yet....thinking back early fun romping with my gold and white Collie, Laddie.  Powdery white of winter snow and black trunks of trees, sticking up sharply like a real life pen and ink drawings~ come into my memory.

Lad scooped up the snow with his long nose and ran like the wind, bounding with joy, his coat dusted with snowflakes~ He shook them off vigorously. 

Wonderworld

Here we are, a bit before winter~

Wanderworld:  There I go, a- wanderin' again....

EMOTIONAL CHAMELEON

* Back Through the Years I Go Wandering Again," Coat of Many Colors, song by Dolly Parton.






"Back through the endless picture files I GROW, wandering again...."  It's fun to wander around in pictures, through the years and eons of time and timeless....


** EXO~ When I came across the above photo, I thought of XO (blog post Sept. 2020)!  My imaginary EXO planet....emitting rays of lights and mist, in the blue-green frequency....or sometimes in the electric blue-violet spectrum...ever changing, having no fixed 'home" or location in the cosmos, a wandering photonic light and color experience.

XO story was fun to write....several friends wrote to tell me they had "invented" their own EXO Planet/Moon/ Star System. YEA!  Use the powers of imagination.  One person told me that her XO friend would be filled with plants, trees, vines, and lushness of all kinds, a "pathless woods" fun to explore and be called "Serenity,"  a haven to peace for the mind and spirit.


Someone else said that "I choose the moon!"  

"Why?"

"Because it is quiet and I can be alone there."


I glanced up at the silver full moon a few days later and chuckled, it looks like the charcoal grey smudge of a profile of a horse's face, nose and forehead pointing to your right as you view. The mane flowing out to the left.  You can tell~ horses are on my mind a lot~


*** One morning I tried some French music by Edith Piaf, La Vie En Rose, just to give a bit of energy.  Surprise, I found myself humming along!  My work went smoother and easier.  Music has a lovely power all its own.  Every tune different...every interpretation expansive. 




**** "Nature Brings to Every Time and Season, a Beauty of Its Own,"  William Wordsworth, Poet


I saw Orion rise the other evening, winter is on the horizon. 

It is good to see the stars again, clear and bright. Old Friends~
