The Little Partridge,

December 13, 2013 · 3 Comments

All the birds call thee blessed, They come with thee in flocks,

They come around thee chirping : 
In truth there is not one like thee.
Ah! pretty, pretty, Ah! beautiful little partridge! 

~from an Armenian folk song

The Little Partridge by ©Lisa Rivas

Is this “The little partridge” that the “Pear Tree” left me?

Trees are sanctuaries.
Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth.
They do not preach learning and precepts, they preach, undeterred by particulars, the ancient law of life.

Art Statement

When I take the time to look and to really see and to apply my "foolish" imagination, there are worlds within worlds within worlds to be discovered.

When I allow my eyes to be excited and fascinated and pleased at what they see, I begin a journey, inventing a path to the place I choose to go; and magic happens!
