readying for winter
filling my wooden box with kindling
thinking it would be nice to paint it
sitting under the autumn sun
enjoying creating art outsie
now my box has a painting on it!
today is the first day it is cold enough to use
the kindling in this box
to start a fire
a new season has begun!

Your essence blankets nature and your true nature blankets you with every intimate encounter. Together... you keep each other warm comfortable and truly alive as you shine brightly as a guiding star to the others who see you from their mountain tops.
ReplyDeleteOh wow!!!!! Tammie it is beautiful! Even the kindling sticks look beautiful. So neat. Keep warm! Tsup! tsup!
ReplyDeleteI always thought of painting our wooden surfaces.
what a great and somehow mysterious painting! I love the idea of art on a kindling box- makes something bleak (the cold!!) somehow brighter.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love seeing all the artists turning to fall.
