Isn’t he beautiful?
Superior, Colorado.
He lives in a field with the bulls. It’s a big field though, so no one is crowded. It’s been a bit since I’ve seen him – nowaday, I say good morning to Big Horse and Medium Horse in a different place. But I look forward to seeing him again in the coming spring.

Daily gratitudes:
The pink bunny attached to someone’s backpack on the bus this morning
The cockeyed orange moon rising big and full tonight
Trying, trying, trying to know the right thing to do as a parent
Overcoming discouragement

The Art of Being
The fern in the rain breathes the silver message.
Stay, lie low. Play your dark reeds
and relearn the beauty of absorption.
There is nothing beyond the rotten log
covered with leaves and needles.
Forget the light emerging with its golden wick.
Raise your face to the water-laden frond.
A thousand blossoms will fall into your arms.
