Georgetown Loop Railroad

September 27, 2007

We stopped at Silver Plume (an old mining town) yesterday long enough for me to take some photos of the narrow guage engine they have there for the Georgetown Loop Railroad. (Georgetown is another old mining town in the mountains here.) I snapped photo after photo as they put the engine in the engine house for the night. I would love to ride it someday, but for now, photos of the train will have to do. This morning I played with this one in Photo Shop, and came up with this:

If the Shoe Fits…

September 27, 2007

Occasionally it comes out of the drawer, this really spent old ballet slipper. My last pointe shoe, I only kept one, so I would not even try again, once over, a thing should be done with. Stoically as I try to approach the past, this memory, kept well and alive in the drawer, takes me in hand and opens a flood off feelings, loss, joy, the sense of flight only dancers and birds know.

So I put the shoe on the foot, and sat a while.

Whimsical Universe

September 24, 2007

Whimsy Universe

Under a spell of whimsy and space
lies the depth of beauty and grace
that brushes the sky in hues of bliss
and touches land with a tender kiss

Ever so luminous dances color on white
shaping and moving into swirls of light
that opens the heart for fancy and play
and deepens the soul in a passionate way

Imagine a sweetness where nothing exists
except for the magic of daydreams and mist
that affectionately blends into small dots of spots
and awakens the words into fresh painted plots

I love the whimsy of playing with symbolic images that capture something of stillness, beauty and grace. It is what moves me to explore, create and paint!
