It's been a VERY long time since I've written any poetry, Lynn. However, those photos are truly inspiring, so I may come up with something in the middle of the night!
As for pottery, my foot had healed enough that I was ready to start throwing, and then I was sick for the entire month of December. Finally two weeks ago I started a little "practice" on the wheel, and then hurt my foot again. Long story, but DH let a big pot of broth boil over on the stove; I ran in to turn it off and slipped and my foot slid under the stove and got all dinged up...sigh. I am signed up for pottery class again this semester, which starts in 2 weeks, so I MUST get some work done between now and May.
We are having our first grandson the end of April, however, so between that, the dog, work, and volunteering, I won't be totally without distractions this spring...LOL!
