I meant to do my work today,
But a brown bird sang in the apple tree,
And a butterfly flitted across the field,
And all the leaves were calling me.
And the wind went sighing over the land,
Tossing the grasses to and fro,
And a rainbow held out its shining hand,
So what could I do but laugh and go?

You have a beautiful blog. It is a delight to read!
this is exactly how i've been feeling the last couple days ~ now you're not only an inspiration, you're also a mind reader. ;o)

butterflies....

Thank you all for your kind compliments. I would say, "You don't know how much they mean to me." but I suspect that you know exactly. Again, I thank you. Happy day to you all.
When it's said in poetry it sounds like a wonderful thing to do. So why do I sometimes feel guilty when I take the time to just be in the world?
Thanks for your lovely blog.
Love your blog. I stumbled on it because I was looking for images to incorporate into a quilt. I love the poem and thought is would be perfect for a summer themed wall hanging. Thanks for sharing your work.
