Magnificent!

December 6, 2010 · 1 Comment

Precious is the breath of little rose drops
all exploding under the soft canopy of pink clouds
and forever being embraced by the wings of a rooted forest…

…an exquisitely framed moment within the interlocking dance of life!

The songs come from a vulnerable place,
but expressing that part of yourself can also make you feel fearless. ~Deana Carter

Saw the vision of the world,
and all the wonder that would be.” ~ Alfred, Lord Tennyson
