Oddities

Many things I do have an unusual touch.  It is me and I enjoy the freedom to be me.  My Dreaming Porch has things many people would not show but I am happy and comfortable with them.

The wood stove oven from my playhouse in the woods

a felt fish on a broken treadle sewing machine peddle

my broken aquarium

my re-purposed floor vent and metal table

another broken part of a sewing machine

Dad's antique cage with wood cookies, gourds and a solar light

an old rusty milk can with a tray of rocks and a candle

another view of my dry aquarium

second generation Scooby Doo...

I couldn't get rid of him

My deep freezer is here

with a box of toys

a metal tractor

and my forgotten mop bucket.

These are the things on my porch.

The Dreaming Porch

had been neglected for dreaming and cleaning.  So I decided it was time to "get 'er done". 

My swing, a gift from my daughters

and a table I made with scraps

The far end with the repaired chair.

Hoping to find some time to dream.

How do you like to go up
In a swing?
I like to swing to the sky
Into the trees
Like flying
Through the tree limbs
If you just try
A little harder
Move your legs
Just a little more
You can soar
With the birds
Nothing can touch you
When you swing to the sky
Other days
I swing softly
And ponder
The color of grass
The ant crawling by
Or I like to twist the chain
Until I’m dizzy and
Nothing looks the same
Then stand up
To see
If I’m strong enough
To steady my world again
How do you like

To go up in a swing?
