Marina Sail Away

Marina shares she has been swept away
Marina stares as she takes her breath away
Marina cares for a shoreline far away



Marina sometimes stays then often goes
Marina swirls up swifts and even flows
Marina sails atop or drifts down below



Marina claims her own creative dish
Marina manages her abundant fish
Marina catches every far flung wish




Marina surprises and denies at attempts to stay
Marina encourages and challenges another day
Marina walks on water when you look the other way

Creative Courtyard

Everyone needs a 'Creative Courtyard' ...even if it is a dark basement with a slide show wall of vacation photos. A few simple framed views that make my mind wander and heart wonder.
Moving slowly and progressively forward, while finding focus in my present Happiness. This is the place that reminds me most of my travels, taking me back to places I wish I were able to camp out everyday. After so many summers spent on the islands of Hawaii, on my mind lately are the mountains of Mexico: San Miguel de Allende.
