Joy finds me


Sitting outside eating cheese-curls
staring at the moon
I feel content.


A cloud draws yellow circles around the moon.
A cheese-curl laughs at its reflection.


A wolfdog runs past a wheelbarrow of orange pumpkins.


The moonlight and dark blue dusk surround us.

Is this a real place? It seems magical & enchanted & all that fairy-tale stuff. I was sure that first picture wasn't really real until I saw the wolfdog next to the pumpkins. And what a sky - I felt more & more peaceful as I continued on. Absolutley wonderful!

I love the picture of the wheelbarrow filled with pumpkins, although I confess: I thought at first they were pomengranates.
Your words always paint a dream scape for me - I love that!
