Cape Ann Granite Rocks and My favorites ~ Dandelions ~  for Monday Mellow Yellows 




Cape Ann MA red boat for Ruby Tuesday2


Hope your Mother's Day was special and that your weekend was filled with love. I have learned that in order to love others I need to love myself with all the fragility of being 'a human being of light'. To me, we are all connected and 'it' is all Mother Earth's energy that provides that connection. So I send out love to you all wherever you may be and whatever you may be doing creatively.

We are sharing today with these creative bloggers:

Wishing you the best in each day. xxooo

    You have a rainbow of colors here, Carol! I especially like the little blue flowers (whose name I probably know, but can't call to mind at the moment!).

    You visited one of my blogs and commented on my Tarot Strength haiku. I am glad you did, because I found your blog and am enjoying looking around. I would love to follow it, but am not sure how I do that since I use wordpress and you use blogger. I am quite new to the blogosphere. When my son and I went on a college trip to Boston some years ago, we made a side trip to Cape Ann. Did a whale watching trip, visited Rocky Neck Art Colony, and went to Rockport and Halibut Point State Park. Such a lovely area. You are lucky to be there.

    I do love dandelions even though many consider them to be weeds. Great haiku to go with the shells. :-)

    Such beautiful sea shells! Now I miss to go by the sea shore and pick up some shells.. :)

    Spring is lovely with its flowers and all sprouting up now.. It's a real joy! :)

    In my country we have mother's day on the second Sunday of February, each year.

    We must take care for our mother earth as well.. I think the earth needs that.

    peace & love :)
