You never grow weary of painting your feelings in the canvas sky above. I don’t grow tired of studying you, as you dance on the beach and reach up to the peeking stars like they are the arms of your gentle father bright.
You are the epitome and brushstroke of freedom true!
So few, find the joy you display. You refuse to join the world’s gaudy fray. I just witnessed how you blended all the colors around you. You captured the colors in such an affectionate fashion, in the palette of your heart.

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.

This is so lovely and full of life! I can just picture someone twirling on the beach, grabbing stars, and mixing all the colors into their heart—such a joyful vibe! It's like freedom bottled up in words. Love it! ✨😊
