Flame in a Garden
Circles of soft sweet green grass covered hills that drifted toward a hidden sea. The roar of waves crashing against the dawn was deafening and yet contained a silent glee that chimed like glass bells. I saw a flame. At first I was afraid. I stepped away and started to run to the top of the mountain. I looked back. The flames warm glow flooded the path with golden light. I realized that even though it was a fire, it didn’t seem to be dangerous. And the light fell down in drapes to the water, which waited and hugged it. The sand danced and sang songs. It was a kind of wedding ceremony.
“Oh well, I wasn’t invited,” I said to myself and turned to hike away. When I finally reached the summit I looked back down to the grotto with the flame and it was gone. All that remained were flowers.

In this image, I feel the soaring of spirit…...your art and stories take me to another place….where the magic is alive and we all have a key to the mysteries that surround us….. In the presence of such multidimensional creativity, I feel my own creative muse rising and stretching and getting ready to fly once again, taking me with her…... you are a very inspirational soul….....
