One of my cyber friends had a marvelous post on March 14, 2025 called a mug of milk and warm moon.  Maria Wulf is a poet as well as an artist and she is a joy to watch when she posts.  Her connection to our natural world  puts us all in a classroom to wonder about the sacredness of our planet.  She is talented and open to our natural world and in conversation with creatures that we all wish ours is like hers when we talk loudly and normally to our 4 legged creatures. Her post full moon and fiber art is a favorite of mine and my readers wonder how I find these special writers .  I think we all have a certain connection to our perspectives and certain words alert us to what we search.  And if you love 4 legged creatures you know what words send you running.  Her camera is always focused via her heart.

I hope you choose to read her work and find the pleasure I do in her writing.  I have told her many times I hope one day she finds time to put her work in a book for city kids to taste of life from a farm perspective. This is not only the love of creatures but the care of them in feeding and taking care of physical needs like those requiring a shovel and a pitch fork.. . . .

It never is all glamorous but true labor of love connected.  And there are times one has to  go to one ‘s knees and scrub the carpet.  One’s stomach not strong enough?  One can always give the dog away but society frowns as unacceptable when it comes to one’s child.

Diapers require changing?  No one ever told you?  You might have to do it?  Poor,poor baby, you. . . aaahhh mann. . . . amen.
