Early Morning

  • Wake up. Wander.
  • Take your time.
  • Stop.
  • Ponder.
  • Saunter down the road a while.
  • Pause. Wait.
  • Then, navigate a new direction.
  • Never hesitate.
  • Marvel over
  • each
  • and
  • every
  • miraculous
  • moment.

Poetry and Music

Apr 23rd, 2010 by Dianne | 2

This week, I’ve been enjoying Natalie Merchant’s CD, LEAVE YOUR SLEEP. One of the song-poems that have been going through my head is “Equestrienne” by Rachel Field.



“See, they are clearing the sawdust course
For the girl in pink on the milk-white horse…”

Find the rest of the poem here.

    That’s really lovely. What a great face and voice. That particular video is like something out of an old European movie. Henry James, maybe. Very nice, Dianne.
