121 I Love ... batik

colourful
batik.

Rich, 
deep
vibrant colours.

Indigo, fuscia, teal, tourquoise.

Studying it.
Feeling it.
Collecting it.

Creating it.
That's something that I
could have done,
should have done,
might do.


120 I Love ... Chattel Houses

They fit right in
with my obsession for
'tiny houses'.

The variety of 
styles,
the colours,
the history.

I want a little village of them

I want to go inside them.

I want to decorate them.


119 I Love .... connectivity.

meeting someone
who leads you to
someone
who leads you to
someone.

Connectivity.

Like links in a chain
that keeps getting
longer
and
longer.

One interesting,
fascinating
soul 
connected 
to the 
next.






118 I Love .... sitting under a tree

no matter where it is..

A canopy of leaves
is the very best
roof.

Movement.
Diffused sunlight.
Soft rustle.

Perhaps a visitor or two
alighting.

Solid trunk
on which to
 rest my back.






117 I Love ... that dozy feeling

when you feel yourself
slipping away,
slipping away.

Most times you never feel it.

You're awake
then suddenly it's morning.

To feel it happening
is
delicious.






116 I Love ... feeling the warmth

of the world...

the gentle breeze,
warm air
on my skin.

no coat
no boots
not even a sweater.

Thinking

If I were home right now
outside,
I would be 
freezing.



115 I love ... bougainvillea

Rich pinks,
purples,
fuscia.

They speak to me of the
Caribbean .

A vibrant
riot
of brilliant, happy colours
against the
gentle
hues
of the aqua ocean
and
white sand.
