Artists, Poets, Photographers Weekend


Spooky Muse ~ been sleeping ^_^




 WEEKEND POST  ~ Whew, just one of those weeks attending to life choices ~ socializing a bit. Seems social functions tend to come in clusters. Still working on 'balance' of creating and socializing. Sometimes it flows; other times it is a bit like the ocean ~ ride the waves. Today we have artists, poets and photographers we are sharing with this weekend:

paint party friday
haiku my heart
carpe diem haiku
your sunday best photo


The first photo is for paint party friday and is a playful one for my creative self and others. The haiku below are included in one photo but cover several themes, tears, childhood, laughter and perfume. The last photo is one I took at the beach today. Essentially the ocean created this wonderful design in the sand and thoroughly filled my creative soul.




Haiku ~ for Rebecca's Haiku My Heart and Chevre's Carpe Diem Haiku




'Ocean' created design.
for Your Sunday Best Photo



There it is; the creations for the weekend. Will post again on Saturday night for Sunday and Monday blogs that I share with.
Hope you enjoy the artists, poets and photographers.

Wishing you wonderful moments each day.

Hugs and namaste,

and




We love to have you post your comments, thoughts or questions to delight us all in the day ~ especially, Art Muse Dog ^_^
