Sparkle

The sparkle of the water in the sun.

Satisfying My Soul

Conversing with God

through prayers

to satisfy my soul.

Timepieces

My watch and my phone.

What I depend on for keeping me on time.

Mundane... in green shades

A green glass bottle

standing on the patterned green rug in my front room.

Things with wings

Fly in the air

land in the sea.

Journey

Too often we are so preoccupied with the destination, we forget the journey.

These are my two boys, enjoying the journey.

Home

Standing in the yard,

looking up at the blue skies through the fronds of this coconut palm.

This is the home where I grew up.

This is the home where I still live.

Fresh

Fresh flowers around the house.

Always a good thing.

Green

The glorious green globules of the boashi plant

which grows in abundance along the shore of the these islands

Hidden

The curl of a dried guava leaf

hides a spider and its home.

Sweet "Summer" Pudding

raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, red currants, black currants.

a touch of sugar

a splash of water

heated to create a vibrant coulis

layered with fresh white bread

served with whipped cream

~luscious~

Love

sweet little love notes

and illustrations

by my little ones

that i get greeted with

when i return home from work.

Rocks?

Rocks, hmmm...

does a coral count as a rock? ;)

A New Perspective

My daughter's sand art.

Coloured sand

glued to paper

to form a frog on a lily pad.

Shadows

Em and Me
posing for pictures
with our backs to the just-risen sun.

My Wish

is for TIME
time for all my loves,
time for myself,
and especially,
time to savour every moment
with my precious ones.

H is for...

H is for hand.
The hand of my little Hero
holding a whole nutmeg.

Calm

what could be more relaxing
than sitting by the ocean
gazing at the blue vastness
and letting the waves
lull you?

Holiday

barefeet on soft sand

the smell of the ocean

Togetherness

This is Em and Hero
building a sandcastle on a small patch of
powdery white sand by the sea.
They have their differences.
They have their fights.
But when they play,
there is so much love,
such closeness,
such friendship
between them.

Togetherness.
This is my theme for the week.
