Waging the

Sky Watch Friday: Look Up




Before Sky Watch, I barely noticed the sky and fully appreciated the beauty of nature around me. Well, I am happy to share a few photos and enjoy the other sky watchers. It has been sunnier and more humid. Finally, a little slice of summer.


Look up
To the sky
And fly
Till your cares
Dissipate
In the atmosphere

Writing Hiatus

Hi readers and bloggers. Given outside demands and writing pursuits, it has been difficult to keep up with all the posts and writing prompts. While the site has been fun, it also takes up time and there are some nights when I cannot write and update on a regular. So I will be taking a break and writing when I have time and the inspiration to write. I will do my best to continue to check out your sites but it may not always be possible. Thank you to everyone who has supported my site.

Best wishes to your blogs and your endeavors.

Sky Watch Friday: Rays of Glory





These shots were taken out of a car window. The weather has been promising lately.


Rays of glory
Smile infinitely
Beyond the borders
Of consciousness

Drops of God

Drops of God
Brush against my windowpane
Golden is the sun
Expanding across the great blue
Wind enveloping the atmosphere
Sweeping like His breath
Clouds part and the heavenly heights
Bloom in enraptured glory
Mysteries of creation
Reveal themselves subtlety
On the wings of a dove
Snow covered mountains
Rolling on blades of grass
Trembling on tree limbs
Rippling in child's laughter
Folding in loving arms
Caressing eyelids in sleep

Simply Snickers Challenge


This week's Simply Snickers Challenge uses the words line, look, and lush. The accompanying painting is Camille Pissarro's Woman Hanging Laundry (1887).



Linens blowing against the line
Cool breezes whistling summertime
Fragrant blossoms dips in air
Lush gardens beckons unique flair

Chorus of children catching wind
Lingering on pastel skies
Mother looks upon her babe
Contently laying in the grass
Patiently awaiting mama's tickles

Red, white, and blue
Rousing like the morning dew
Coloring the skies
Patriotic highes
