Magpie Tales #235 Gravitational Pull

Dark Harbor, 1943, N.C. Wyeth

The ocean sighs as the tide comes in

Dawn's sky fills with cries of gulls

A boat overflows with silvery bounty

Enough to share so all will feast    

The ocean sighs as the tide goes out

And the fishermen return to the sea

Lucy in her window

August 29, 2014

Lucy would really like to be

outdoors.....and the coyote would too.

That's why she's an indoor only cat!

Two days ago I observed a coyote

just outside our dining room window

stealthily stalking a squirrel.***

Then the coyote saw me watching 

and left in a huff.

Magpie Tales # 234 Painful Perfection

Starry Night by Alex Ruiz

Perfection

Once seen

Never forgotten
Once seen
Has to be painted

.......

Enraged losing friends
Losing friends who loved 
Who loved him despite 
Despite his madness 
Madness driving him
Driving him to slashing
Slashing lines and colors
Colors from that night
That starry starry night
~~~~~~
Thanks to Tess Kincaid for Magpie Tales
Have a great week!
