This Home Has a New Sparkle, A Secret View to be Shared
So what does this do? I wanted to share with you what it looks like inside…It’s been mostly small ways of decorating. There’d been a question from myself to myself: Why am I not really sitting or outside on the balcony on beautiful days? —I realized I just wanted a small pillow for the back […]

“Another Water”
by Jade Nicole Beals (first written Jul. 9, ‘22) Could stop you as if with a kiss. You said you’d seen your heart like ice— I’d found it like sweet ice, essentially fruit, melting into renewed strength. I’ve thought of you as pure onyx, an emerald afire, glowing the whole sunset hour, cooling in the […]

“The Pinnacle”
There was a plea from you to forget the scales as the music fell from all around you, and little cue notes drifted into my sleep, like windows in my dreams looking out, and you smiling through you as you know you are the dream come true, the scales returning to the music and world, […]

Poetry Books: Goldenrod and The Book of Love, and More
The title poem of Goldenrod by Maggie Smith reminds me of my time as a very novice student of nature last year. And I’m not purposely or only picking gold-colored things for the blog :), but I won’t outright deny a gold-colored thing for variety either. My brief reflection of the book: Goldenrod by Maggie Smith (2021): […]

A Pair of Leaves in the Rain
back inside, the lamplight showed the page in a warm light I wasn’t planning to sketch or even paint today, but the fire-alarms were going to be tested today, and began, so I grabbed my purse, pocket sketchbook, a book to read, pencil, and sharpener that were on my side table. I was going outside […]

Good Morning! : Miss May’s Flower Art
I completed this flower art today I’d made for author and poet, Miss May Ziadeh. I’d collected flowers over the seasons, a couple fallen onto my path outside, and pressed them in a book for her… and then I’d made her a celebration memorium at my home where I’d read Miss May (as she was […]

Like the Japanese cherry blossoms wedded to the soil’s palm by Luther Hughes
by Luther Hughes Like the Japanese cherry blossoms wedded to the soil’s palm planted in front of the train station; or the yellow-black dance of the tiger swallowtail’s wings as it flees; or the echoes that follow after I thunder loud against the kitchen cabinets; or the summer fire hitched to the air we breathe—the […]

Morning Sketch from a Field Afternoon: treasures
I drew this sketch this morning, with my morning tea, from a few first sketches I’d drawn yesterday—(it was still a heatwave, so I’d gone back in after a little while even with my water canteen.) I drew with pencil, eraser, and pocket-book in a little spot in nature where I could kneel beneath this […]

Wildflower Field with Fragrance and Dance— I Love Like This
^ I love: like this…Love: like this. (my photo of a wildflower field tonight) I worked on my still life painting today. It’s midway in progress (maybe)…It’s an imaginary room and arrangement that came to my mind. The room appears with my brush, the flowers, too; it is funny how I can’t tell if I’m […]

One of the Very Rare Hymns I May Love to Hear
A cup and saucer combination that feels complete, neither just new, just newly combined—The book on table is It’s a Scottish Custom, I’ve liked reading about the seas and islands—“above all there was a sense of space,” ‘water meets air,’ and the brilliance of colors ‘as if seen through a glaze.’ It has been quiet […]
