Friday Muse

I think that I've had enough sorrow and heartache for one week. So, I'm ending the week on a positive note! Maybe this will become a regular Friday thing. 


This week my muse came from the beauty of spring in my yard, colored with the notes of sadness. 

I have to remember that even though there is sadness around me, the beauty of spring still abounds. The world is fresh and new. Life is an incredible journey  across mountains and through great divides. It is not something to be taken for granted. Life is too short for unhappiness. So - Have a Happy Weekend! 

A few of my favorite things...

When I was a child, this particular musical was my mother's favorite. She played the sound track all the time, because the only way to see it was when they put it on television, once a year as a week long mini-series. I love this song - and every spring, it gets stuck in my head and I can't get rid of it! 
So, today it's Favorite Things! Enjoy!


Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles



Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites

When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad

I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad














Have a great weekend ya'll!
