Our World Tuesday ~
 |
| As you can see this is another foggy day on Cape Ann MA. Few pleasure boats are yet in the water and summer is very slow to arrive this year. ~ Made for a unique sky, though. A bit of 'our world' here. |
 |
| 'V' ~ Veritas ~ the truth will out as America is strong and we will rise above what is happening. I have great respect for the Office of President but more respect for the people of the United States and the truth will out ~ hopefully soon. |

| Encouraged by Lea a kindred spirit and haiku poet, I went to my labyrinth and lit a candle for inspiration for myself and all. Come into the light with your gifts. So thankful for many loves, my doggie, creating, house, family friends, car, my health; but more than just things I am grateful for being me with all my talents and foibles. What are you grateful for today?
Sky Watch Friday on Thursday ~
|
 |
| A beautiful bloom on Cape Ann MA ~ Haiku held tight all winter lying dormant beneath earth slow to come to light At times we are all like this budding flower ~ needing support to overcome the shyness to share the light. Others are bold and have no care for others I would rather be the gentle budding one slowly, sincerely, simply ~ me. |
 |
| A Collage that may never be to my liking ~ Here it is ~ created with specialty paper, lumiere paints and clay. |

I hope the truth does come out. Sometimes I wonder. I look forward to seeing your doggie close the series. And by the way, I do write for the local newspaper and post those stories on my blog after they come out (along with my informal writing, poetry and photography).
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your assortment of pics to meet the linky needs for a week and as the lady above says, I love the final doggie shot.
ReplyDeleteIn spite of the weather, you have captured some beautiful shots. Those of us on the east coast need some sustained sunshine!
ReplyDeleteWonderful post, and photos. Greetings.

I love that first foggy photo - there's a magic to sea and mist. And of course your critter is as cute as ever!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful peaceful week.

Love the quote you began your post with Carol. Always a pleasure seeing views of the harbor and boats no matter what the weather. Lovely haiku and angel painting. And I love the bunnies too:) Saving best for last-she is one very lucky one to have you for her mum. Have a wonderful week ahead!
ReplyDeleteGreat photo of the flag and a beautiful idea to light a candle for inspiration! Enjoy your week sweet lady!
ReplyDeleteWonderful series of images.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots and of course - your dog is adorable!
ReplyDeleteLoving the candle and inspiring quote. I enjoy scented candles myself, mostly gentle vanilla - just lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love that dirst picture Carol - the foggy view. And of course the metal bunnies. I want some. Have a wonderful week of improving weather.
ReplyDeleteThe fog ties the land to the sea.
ReplyDeleteThank you for lighting a candle for all. Your little altar looks nice.
I am thankful for family and friends; Good health; plenty.
Metal rabbits are the best kind to have in the garden.
Those sweet eyes of your Muse say a lot.
I echo your feelings about the current government. Watching it all unfold from west coast of Canada!

Hi! I like your first photo very much. Your sketch is very lovely. I like your Haiku too. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I love your candle. It's wonderful to have so much to be grateful for. I'm grateful for my kitties, home, health, and many more :-)
ReplyDeleteHey Artmuse Dog, bet you don't mind the cold and fog, I'd trade that for heat and humidity for sure. That cold rain and wind can be a drag though. Beautiful shots of the cape. I've been listening to the hearings all morning and amazed at how they are refusing to answer the most basic questions. Not sure truth stands a chance these days.
ReplyDeleteVeritas indeed
ReplyDeleteROG, ABCW
cute metal bunnies :) the collage looks good, what do you not like about it?
ReplyDeleteThe first foggy view towards the lighthouse is so special!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your haiku so much!
Hugs to Miss Zoe and hope you have a lovely weekend!
Love the skies and the bunnies seem to be looking out for warmer weather. We are having a lot of high winds, Zoe would not look as adorably coiffured after a walk in these. Have a great week under whatever skies.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your views this week and I always like to see your pup! Thanks for linking up today!
ReplyDeleteYour metal bunnies are so cute!
ReplyDeleteGood skies.

Love the pictures though don't enjoy gloomy skies
ReplyDeleteA very beautiful sky shot you captured this week!!
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful post. I loved "V for veritas" I am having to talk a lot with my 19 year old son with autism. He is convinced that our President is going to ruin the country and I tell him that the country is bigger than #45. I tell him that the truth about him is coming out and that even his supporters will turn on him soon enough.
ReplyDeleteThank you for you continuing positive, loving life posts. I love them.
Hello Carol, these are all lovley images. The first view is gorgeous, lovely sky shots. The metal bunnies are cute. I love your angel sketch. I am thankful to be able to enjoy your talent. Happy Friday, enjoy your day and weekend!
