Saluting Beauty & Joy


Photo: Larry brought me an orchid
 The new orchid sits as the honored guest in my dusty house.
Each time I pass, its beauty suggests that I stop
and
salute the joy it brings.


***
It is October.
Everyone I know is saying,
"Its October!"
Is that because the summer is over?
The weather will soon cool?

All I know is that I am sitting in a dark studio.
So dark that I cannot paint and storms are coming.
I cannot exercise at the lake, because it is so wet....
Larry is in Dallas for meetings, I am grumpy.

Where is that orchid?
Now I know why we need flowers in the house.
Bring on the joy!

Love you.
Me
