The sun is setting on the bay, and in its beams, clouds of gray and gold unroll upon the amber air, the street lamps throw their reflection on the still water. A summer day beside the placid bay has passed into the land of dreams, and with a soft monotonous cadence, sun sets on the bay.

SURPRISE VISIT
A knock upon the mousy’s door,
A query, “Yes, who is it?”
A cheery reply from a mousy friend,
“It’s me! It’s a surprise visit!”
“I’ve brought a picnic basket,
To enjoy under blue skies.”
An unexpected visit
Is such a nice surprise!

TAKE ME HOME COUNTRY ROADS
Country roads take me home to the place where I belong,
West Virginia, mountain momma, take me home, country roads.
Almost heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
Life is old there, older than the trees,
Younger than the mountains, growin’ like a breeze.

TERRASSE A SAINTE-ADRESSE

THAYERS DRUG STORE AND SODA FOUNTAIN

The town drug store and soda fountain, a place where folks stopped by to fill prescriptions, have a malt or ice cream, pass the hours with a friendly game of checkers, memories of a simpler time. Affectionately recalling the time spent at the fountain sipping on a tasty root beer, life was uncomplicated when a nickel or a dime could buy a soda fountain delight and always included sweet memories.

THOUGHTS OF HOME

Home has a strong foundation. It can weather any storm. Home is where I belong. When I go away, I know I can come back to stay. Home is a beautiful place. Home is pictures of memories on the wall. Home is waking up to the smell of mom's cooking. Home is a warm place to be.

TIMES REMEMBERED

In every adult, the heart of the child still beats, and in that heart, yesteryear will live forever, in times remembered. Feeling the child within, the carefree spirit, skipping along the path of yesterday, riding the winds of memory, in times remembered.

TUG OF WAR

TWO BEARS OF THE BLACKFEET

Great Spirit, give us hearts to understand, never to take from creation's beauty more than we give, never to destroy wantonly for the furtherance of greed.

UP AND AWAY
The wind is blowing, the sky is blue,
It is such an idyllic day,
The kite is flying higher and higher,
Up, up and away!
Up, up and away it goes,
High, high in the sky,
Oh what a joy to watch the kite,
Float through the air and fly!

THE VILLAGE BLACKSMITH
Under a spreading chestnut tree,
The village smithy stands,
The smith, a mighty man is he,
With large and sinewy hands.
And the muscles of his brawny arms
Are strong as iron bands.
Week in, week out, from morn till night,
You can hear his bellows blow,
You can hear him swing his heavy sledge,
With measured beat and slow,
Like a sexton ringing the village bell,
When the evening sun is low.

WAIKIKI ROMANCE
Waikiki is romance, it's sunshine, it's love,
It's warm sand between your toes and pure blue sky above.
Sunrise over Diamond Head, sunsets down Ewa Way,
Trade winds to cool your brow, at the end of a fabulous day.

WHEN WILL YOU MARRY

Paul Gauguin 1848-1903 There cannot have been many other artists who set out as wholeheartedly to live the life they envisioned in their art as Paul Gauguin did. Gauguin personified a new union of art and life and became one of the true pioneers of modernism.

WHERE THE WIND BLOWS
From high up above in our balloon,
We can see far, far below,
On a lazy, sunny summer day,
We don’t care where the wind blows.
Will it take us to the east or west
Or to the north or south, who knows?
It doesn’t matter which way we go,
We’ll go where the wind blows.

WILLOUGHBY PICNIC

A languid atmosphere, a lazy breeze with soft respiration moves the flowers and trees. The birds carol forth their songs, as their cheerful strains are drowsily heard floating on the air. The warm sun showers Willoughby Park, and the picnickers leisurely arrive for a dreamy day in the golden sunlight and a midday repast.
