Friday Writings #35: Hope

raindrops lingering
tiny pearls sparkle the leaves
holding rainbow light

and when tomorrow
sunlight pierces through azure
arms outstretch to dance

welcome puffy clouds
yours is the gift of mapping
thoughts sworn to action

Ah Gillena, Always lifts my spirits and gives me a smile to visit here. And yes, I can see you in my minds eye now sauntering through nature so gratefully and gayly too...

Dixie @ Arranged Words said...

Wonderful poem. I especially love your lines:
"Raindrops lingering
tiny pearls sparkle the leaves"
Wonderful art, I especially like your Degas portrait.
Enjoy the weekend, Gillena.

The clouds seem to kiss the moon. Lovely!

Rommy said...

I do love the sight of raindrops on the leaves.

DVArtist said...

I really like your smokey clouds but your portrait is fabulous. Well done my friend. Thank you for joining Friday Face Off. Have a great day.

Your haiku makes it sound as though you are doing some sauntering yourself. Be blessed in your comings and goings!

I love your prose Gillena! And your art pieces are just lovely. The Moon is beautiful, it was quite a sight! ♥ Yay for a new art journal!!! ☺

A beautiful moon drawing, Gillena! Your after-the-rain poem says it for me. I love the feeling of the air and sky after a rain. Good cheer to you!

Why we look at faces! It's a question, how I find its necessary to ask. If I paint, I ask for the Person which I'm drawing. Thank you for sharing

dsnake1 said...

Well, that's a very sassy moon. :)
I like your drawing of Degas. Ink pencils and a brush wash is quite fun.
