Dragons

photo by Elizabeth
The dragon lives in the sky, ocean,
marshes, and mountains; and the
mountains are also its cranium.
It's voice thunders and jingles like
copper pans. It breathes fire and
water; and sometimes the dragon
is one, sometimes many.

Healing

photo by Elizabeth

“Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion.”

Grateful

photo by Elizabeth
for sea & sight
blue & white

for sand so light
prints are left
till washed away

legs will walk
& hearts will talk

till sea & we 
begin again

The secret to change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.

POODLE SPRITES

Spring appears in waves as
sea of curls return to play - 
gold growls sail through blue.

In the Sea

photo by Elizabeth

for whatever we lose 

(like a you or a me)

it’s always our self 

we find in the sea.
