...2.19.12...

these two photos worked with kim klassen's textures/techniques. 

 I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free. 
- Michelangelo



God not only sends special angels into our lives,
 but sometimes He even sends them back again
 if we forget to take notes the first time! 
- Eileen Elias Freeman


the moments.
if we don't take the time.
to  observe.
will be gone.
stepping out.
onto the deck this morning.
to breathe in the clean, crisp.
12 degree air.
i see this snow.
a little angel.
with it's bow and arrow.
a sign of love.
my second sign of love.
(and i can't really call it all mine.)
but this simple thing.
makes me so happy.
the robins.
they are in our apple tree.
eating from the apples.
someone said to me this fall.
it made them sad to see the 
apples on this tree go to waste.
here is God's blessing.
He is feeding the robins.
in february.
when the ground is frozen.
covered with snow.
i will try hard.
not to miss the sign
the first time.
but i take comfort in knowing,
that if i do miss it.
He will give me a gentle nudge again.
welcome to coffee hour.
welcome to this Sunday morning.
just BE.
robin.

I really like the effect you used on the photos! I think I just may have to dance in the rain a little more often!
