Pine Cone People


Pine cone people beneath the tree,
Pine cone faces smile up at me,
In this lonely meadow
standing up so tall
beneath your sagging branches
the pine cone people fall.

  4. Bonnie, what a nice thing to say! I'm just tickled to know my art and writing can provide a little pleasure and relaxation in your day!

    Sandy, Thank you! I am trying to revive my imagination. It's been sleeping for awhile. OSI inspires me and gives me a goal to work towards. Between this blog and Sycamore Canyon, I don't watch TV much anymore. That is a good thing.

  9. Garden path, Westfield is so small, I'm surprised it shows up anywhere! No, I haven't published this book anywhere but here, yet. I would sure love to do that though. This is just a snippet. There is so much more to tell.
