saturday stare #9

“mommy………daddy………”

blue eyes stare straight on

prepared to see and be seen

so doggedly………..cute

*a note from Issi’s biographer: the second line of the haiku is interchangeable with the following options:

her tumtum yearns for chow chow

the daily vroom vroom awaits

ready for a special treat

dressed to impress the boyfriends

I read…

I rejoice in your words…

I drown in your thoughts…

I connect with your spirit and dance…

…….

I am on the outside ~ looking in ~ an admirer from afar…

…….

reading feelings

expressed in verses ~

flowing

straight

from your heart……..

we ~ ~ ~

we tiptoe around one another’s thoughts

and

play in one another’s dreams.

we swim in one another’s veins

and

tug on one another’s heart strings.

we

are

writers,

readers,

lovers,

friends

~ transforming ~

the essence of who we are

into

words with wings ~ setting them free

to soar

upon the world.

a reverie

~

my

heart

dances

to the rhapsody

of

your

dreams

~

a saturday stare #6

~ keeping an eye on things ~

My daughter Isabella, also known as Issi, Issi Bee or Isabelle, is a pure bred Siberian Husky. We adopted her from a Husky Rescue in November, 2017 after the passing of our beloved and forever, so beautiful Sydnee Pee, who almost made it to 14 years old.

Issi is 10 years old and a true beauty with crystal blue eyes and a personality that is as sweet as can be. She loves to use her words, tear her toys to shreds, tum tums , Greenies, lying on the deck, going for vrooms and walks…and runs….lots (especially the last two). Oh – and she has trained her parents and brothers very well!!! Very well, indeed 🙂

greetings from the couch

Wishing everyone a day full of joy, love, peace, hugs, kisses, treats, pets, licks and tum tums.

(Issi wants to include the last four on the list…)

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!

’tis living

one of my deck beauties

I am captivated by what is known

and

challenged by the unknown ~

all I can do is keep moving ~ ~ ~ forward ~ ~ ~

embracing

them

both …

kisses from mimz

I keep tossing kisses into the wind ~

in hopes they reach their intended target ~ ~ 

landing softly upon

the precious cheeks

I have kissed

since

day

one…

both ~ away ~

.

one is across the country,

the other ~ across an ocean

and

I am in the center waiting ~

.

neither

here or there ~

.

just

waiting ~

.

waiting for this ~ profound

loneliness

to

float

away ~

his smile brings

more warmth and light

to my heart

than

even

the most perfect sunshiny day ~

Big Pee and a fish.
