Photo Friday: When she dances
When she dances
when she dances
earth and sky
bend with her
fire leaps
like hands
telling stories
river moves
in calligraphic
graces
mist shrouds
mountain shoulder
hidden-- Maureen Shaughnessy
Today's post began with a randomly chosen prompt from Poetry Thursday, writing some words inspired by an image. I made the above collage for no other reason than "I had to," and the words just came as I watched what I was making.

The Poetry Thursday crowd is on summer break which gives me "official" permission to do what I always do anyway -- that is, to ignore the weekly prompt. Or not.

Trinity
Life spins light into
golden thread,
weaves warp and weft --
a tapestry of experience
that falls, unique for each of us,
from the loom. -- M.S.
************************************************
Destiny itself is like a wonderful wide tapestry in which every thread is guided by an unspeakably tender hand, placed beside another thread and held and carried by a hundred others.

Rocky Mountain Iris
Iris missouriensis
Found growing in meadows and along streambanks, often where apparently very dry, but always where moisture is abundant until flowering time, in western and central parts of MT. Also from B.C. to souther Calfornia, east of the Cascades in Washington, east. to South Dakota, North Dakota and south to New Mexico.

Fenceline and Storm
You go through farm fields on a winding dirt road up into the mountains. The valleys have been cultivated and the mountains are left wild. One of the things I LOVE about Montana!

Photo Friday: Self Portrait
In the pit - when I'm down in it long enough, existing seems to take up too much energy
