Happiness 5-21
the secret life;
poking your head over the rim of the nest;
frolicking in the waves.
the secret life;
poking your head over the rim of the nest;
frolicking in the waves.
mirrored in a tree;
turning over the cards, one at a time;
blowing out the candles.

experiencing the light;
shedding an old skin;
standing firm.
carving out stories;
cheerfully heading home;
the lake filled with stars.
changing direction;
a long lunch on a hot day by the sea;
choosing to walk instead.
breaking the rules;
the turn of the ankle;
climbing through the stars.
a momentous gathering;
still dancing at dawn;
coming down the mountain after a long time.
coffee on the hotel terrace;
the doorway framed with lilacs;
baby’s breath.
sipping dew;
looking out from inside a prism;
fields of wild tulips.
a blue leaf on blue stone;
heading home from the fields;
showered by meteors.
under beach umbrellas;
smoke signals;
on the back of a dragon charging into the fray.
a silver lining;
reading all afternoon while it rains;
climbing out the window onto the branch of an oak.
a story in wood;
being a kite on a windy day;
shipwrecked on Treasure Island.
the sacred pine;
joining hands beforehand;
baby’s breath.
inspired by pink;
the crow and the daffodil;
stormy weather ahead.
coming in for landing;
a donkey braying outside your window;
gold coins falling down the chimney.
the rain lifting:
sleeping on a rug of dandelions;
finding a tiny paper boat to sail down the river.
lightening up;
fingertips;
encountering an ancient goddess.
serenity;
climbing through the skylight;
painting yourself out of a corner.
flamingoes at sunset;
gently spreading open your petals to the sun;
a shiny hammer and lots of nails.
a light in the window;
finding the cage door unlocked and walking out;
strong arms to hug you.
two ways to go;
stringing stars in a spring sky;
forsythia bursting into yellow light.
