When I Am An Old Horsewoman

I shall wear turquoise and diamonds,

And a straw hat that doesn’t suit me

And I shall spend my social security on

white wine and carrots,

And sit in my alleyway of my barn

And listen to my horses breathe.

I will sneak out in the middle of a summer night

And ride the old bay gelding,

Across the moonstruck meadow

If my old bones will allow

And when people come to call, I will smile and nod

As I walk past the gardens to the barn

and show instead the flowers growing

inside stalls fresh-lined with straw.

I will shovel and sweat and wear hay in my hair

as if it were a jewel

And I will be an embarrassment to ALL

Who will not yet have found the peace in being free

to have a horse as a best friend

A friend who waits at midnight hour

With muzzle and nicker and patient eyes

For the kind of woman I will be

When I am old.

Mother's Day

Hi Marilyn,

Here's my pictures from Mothers Day driving through the Gallatin National Forrest.

I drove 50 miles back into the mountains.

The Mothership

 I took these pictures on the way from back from our Front Range Artist meeting in depury, near Glacier Park.

Lawrence said it was a giant snow cloud. 

I have never seen or heard of a snow cloud.

Amazing!
