Mountain Musings From a Turtle~Eye View~Life,Love

I must excuse myself for being gone for so long, just popping in every now and then...
I'm tellin' y'all sorry now, cuz I had to butcher my inbox again, I missed a lot by doing so, but unfortunately, it's rather time consuming to peruse over 2000 deviations...
I have spent my winter learning to snowmobile, and after falling off on my first ride, I got kinda scared, but I've been going anyway, so I'll get over it...it IS lots of fun!




These were taken with my "fishin camera" so they're not the best...but it's a good thing I didn't take my good camera...when I wrecked, I landed on my backpack...sooo I woulda trashed my camera...

Also been working out with the Zumba program, in order to stave off the inevitable winter weight gain...so far, so good~actually lost a little bit...

I've also found love...
But since I have become a jaded old woman, I really am taking this with a grain of salt, so to speak...
Life is temporary, and so is love...
Don't get me wrong~I love "romantic love" and everything it entails...
Like getting flowers for Valentines Day for the first time ever...(except from my children) ....
I would say that I'm smitten...

Yeah...whatever...LoLz...

Anyway, since I'm here, I wanna do a bit of a feature for a lady that is continually featuring ME!


Sorry kids, but it's grownup time again...
perhaps you oughta look anyway...
WE are following our dreams, and I keep tellin' the younger folks on here that they should NEVER stop chasing that ever-elusive rainbow...never...ever...

Pink Dream!
Angels in summer
Present themselves as flowers
Each and everyone of them
Soothe weary eye for hours.
Unseen in bed of flowers
Constant angelic stare
Perfume permeates air
We are so unaware!

23rd June2012 Moody!
Pretty, petty sea bird
Spoiling for a fight
Wise to keep away from beak
It's in the mood to bite!

*Maybe a Sonnet*The spring softly comforts my winter heart
Seasons revolve aeons do tick away
I listen quietly, song so sweet the Lark
Heaven's herald who sings hello the day.
My heart so joyful, feeling spring time soft
No tears, no sadness at winter's demise
The trees do sway, a rustling heard aloft
Delightful spring surges, colourful sigh.
Ephermal this time, enjoy golden glow
My pleasure fleeting at nature's soft kiss
Lovely minutes when breeze does gently blow
Veiled vision lifted, moment of bliss
Heavens domain reflects golden twilight
A blessing observed forget not this sight

24th February2013 The Anniversary!Elizabeth had seen the book during the view day at the auction. Immediately it had caught her attention. To be sure it was small but so beautifully bound in green leather. The book was old, no first edition to be sure but enough years were attached to the volume to make it interesting.
Its subject matter 'Wild Flowers' was an added attraction. When asked to be shown the book Elizabeth was surprised to feel the way she did. Delicate images from another age but so carefully drawn and water coloured. Each plate was protected by dense tissue paper. When the page was turned it was like seeing a flower through an early morning mist. The book had fallen open to a beautifully drawn image of a cowslip. Minute brush strokes and different shades of yellow so carefully considered, it created a familiar feeling. Reluctantly Elizabeth handed the book over to its custodian. The following week the image of the cowslip haunted her.
Elizabeth slowly took her anniversary present from a grinning David. Wi


and some of my very favorites
*Reflections*In bevelled mirror there is a face
Reflected from inner eye
Ponders endless questions of love
Taken for granted passion can die.
Impossible, thought seems overly loud
Feelings were nurtured with loving care
Treasured moments in book of time
Written on aether, script so fine.
Taken for granted passion's embrace
Two souls meet in perfect place
Words unnecessary hearts do speak
Lovers mute, passions peak.
Mirror reveals never conceals
How time invades all life
Reflected memories a story tell
Impossible to say final farewell.

31st January 2013 *Hunter's Moon*           Hunter's moon, divergent sky                
Wolf hound prowls just might die
Illusions, secrets full of fear
Whispers in my frozen ear.
Evil forest walks and talks
Rustling creatures' fearsome squark
No place to hide, night of fear
Time to be brave that is clear.
Home and safe, comfortabe bed?
Tap at window cover head
Teeth chatter, it's Hunter's moon
Goosebumps rise, in bed marooned.

*Salt Tears*Drowned in flood of tears
Salty happiness prevails
Tissues crumpled, wet.
