Petite Painting ~ liquid acrylics
(intuitive style painting)






haiku

~1~

body, slow healing
yet another head cold hitting
what might message be?

~2~

sun in hiding sky
gray days nurturing the earth
much needed growing.

~3~

rocky coastline, sail
testing seas, winds, charts guiding 
ever free warrior and sage.


Hope you enjoy the painting and the haiku by these wonderful artists and poets. Happy weekend to you.


Hugs and namaste,

    I miss my school days, I was able to write my haiku. It was about my mother...
    I'll try to write this weekend... I really miss writing, especially poems :)
    You inspire me, thanks!

    When the body is slow to heal, it's time to slow down! (That's the message I get, anyway!)
