I lay still While my loved one, Sleeps. His warm hand In my hand,
Soft gray clouds pass slowly by, Soon they will release a gift of r… Trees are shedding their leaves As they turn red, orange and yello… Signaling the squirrels to collect…
What inspires me... Hummingbirds buzzing as they land, on nearby flowers. Their amazing wings

Cool breeze rustles through the tr… drifting into my open door and leads me to the window to see leaves falling with abandon. Highlights of red and gold lace
The red cardinal high in a tree, caught my attention with his melodious chirp on my daily walk.
