A creative life is filled with challenges and rewards, puzzles and curiosities. This ongoing series of poems attempts to express the “Aha”s and “What if”s, the deep ponderings and casual observations of an inquiring mind trying to make sense of reality. May it serve, for you, as a bit of “Everyday Inspiration” along your own creative path.
What inspires you
To write,
To draw,
To take pictures?
To quilt,
To cook,
To make books?

I’m inspired everyday…by things I hear, see, smell….I take photos of birds, waves, pets, family laughter…favorite foods, exotic new foods…cakes…treats. All one has to do is just learn to become aware of all the bounty of inspiration around them ! Fresh ingredients will inspire me to try something new for dinner…old clothing can inspire a quilt or throw…memories I can sew together to keep me warm and comforted……a thought or special day can make me write in my journal…something a child says or something I remember hearing my mother say to me….I just have to write it down…..and the older I get, the more these simple moments mean to me.
