The Feet of my Soul



Backyard Garden, Blacksburg, VA- March 29, 2011

Near the feet of my soul I find my roots~

`
Placing this image upon the screen, the words fall from my finger tips. Now I need to hear what they say. 

`
Standing in blessing 
Rooted yet rising,
Over a stone wall
afternoon light finds its way

  1. even better with the image.

    Sometimes I work this way too...I start with an image and allow it to speak. Other times I search for an image that wants to sit with my words...creativity flows in all directions.

  3. "Organic" is the word that keeps coming to mind. Natural, complete, exactly the way it is. Back to the basics. I feel my best when I look at life this way.

    This post speaks to me ~

  4. Laura-
    Thank you for the reminder- -Creativity like the divine spirit moves as it will - just when you get the path of love "figured out" it finds another way to move. Staying openly focused- xo teri

  5. Oh George - thank you! How are you? Has spring found its way to your mountains?

  6. Sharon- You know it is very "organic" - it feels like there is an intention toward balance of being rooted and rising up. As I told a friend I was working in the dirt near these daffodil leaves and upon seeing that light glowing through their newness I ran inside to get my camera ... I am so glad I did!
