Meanwhile, back at the ranch…

music, poetry, musings, photography and philosophy from a woman who found her way back home and wants you to come over for a hike and a cocktail.

Please get here soon…

Crawl in slow
the warmth
the sun

ice to slush
water to dust

my skepticism into trust

that you are on your way
and somewhere under white
and gray
flowers hold on tight
and wait to bloom

please get here soon

Oh dear, dear, ND. I think Mother Nature is as strong-willed as the people who inhabit her territory. Thus, us Dakotans suffer the most of her wrath. But she sure makes up for it during the rest of the year, doesn’t she? 🙂

Beautiful photos and words!

Beautiful! This post reminds me of my dad once telling me that the first spring birds must have a strong faith. 🙂 I sure hope sunshine, budding trees, mud, and all things Spring arrive there soon!

  Oh, I love that one linnea. I have thought the same thing, but he put it so well.
  Prayin’ for some mud, I imagine you have it there already… Enjoy!

Wonderful poem and photos, as usual, but where is the fifth pony?

  Ha ha, Arletta, you’re so observant…I think the fifth pony was a little shy, trying to stay out of my shot…

Good thought. Love the blue jays. We hear them, but never see them.
