rises from the mist
our hearts leap
as we walk towards the sound
of seals barking

The rain has stopped and small drops twinkle on the pine and bare branches. We follow the trail as it winds down the hill, passing the place where a young hind once stood between the trees like a statue, without any of our dogs noticing.
Misty looks at me as I remember, sees the pictures I am making. She smiles her loving smile, and I treasure the new memories we make together.
feet in the shallows –
we feel the surge
of a deeper flow

from low clouds
it only takes
one ray of light to warm
this morning’s forest

sweet music
where rain drops meet the flow
of a woodland stream
the way two waters meet
within sight of a mountain

It is six months ago today when we first met Misty and set out on our journey together. And what a blessing she has been and continues to be.
We are very grateful that we found each other and wish you all a happy Monday and a peaceful new week.

leafless birch
a sense of home folded
in dappled light
we look up at the trees
across the rippled water
