A Birthday Poem

Maery Rose

It’s my sister SB’s birthday today so I did my best to write a birthday poem.

Sis, it’s not the same as getting a poem from Dad, but I hope you know it comes from the heart and that I’m thinking of both of you today.

She’s a wiley coyote
With mischief in her eyes.
A desert gal
Who enjoys gittin’ a rise.
You always know
Exactly what’s on her mind.
A more open heart
You will never find.
I don’t always follow her advice.
Not made of the same stuff
She’s clan of tigers
I’m clan of mice.
Happy birthday sis!
I hope you’re havin’ fun.
And always remember
I love you a ton.

She appears to be enjoying the blanket…

Horse Expo and Stuff

A solid rain storm started last evening and ran through much of today. So what else can a girl do but go to the Horse Expo and look at all the bling. There was more bling than practical stuff. I found a Troxel helmet I’ve been looking for, to replace my old horse-chewed up helmet,…

I looked across a desert terrain of cactus, bushes and trees, wishing I knew their names. It would make me less of a stranger. With so much open space, I expected to see some signs of life, as does the hawk circling overhead. Neither of us are catching sight of any movement, yet both of…

It was a hot and humid one today.  Java’s kiddy pool is a bit substandard from the previous house’s pool.  I hope this area alongside the deck will be a good spot for a future pond that is big enough for Java to fit all the way into. It won’t be roomy enough for swimming,…
