Breathtakingly beautiful! I've been following your blog by feed for a long while now, and every post's a treasure. This one spoke to me especially, so I'm breaking my awed silence to thank you for this lovely invitation to Grace.
Welcome, Melodye -- so glad the words and pictures resonated with you!
Thank you, Carol!
Yes, Miss Yves, that's kind of what every sunrise says to me.
I love all three of these photos, Victoria, for their peaceful feeling. Plus I always like doors and reflections! I was trying to make the haiku echo that.

I'm the author of The Elizabeth Goodweather Appalachian Mysteries from Bantam Dell. The series includes SIGNS IN THE BLOOD (LA MONTAGNE DES SECRETS in France), ART'S BLOOD, (LE SECRET DES APPALACHES in France,) OLD WOUNDS,IN A DARK SEASON (Anthony Nominee, Best PBO), and UNDER THE SKIN. There's also THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS (a spinoff/standalone)chronicling the unexpected life story of Miss Birdie, one of Elizabeth's neighbors.
I came to this weird business late (my first novel was published in 2005) and am still trying to figure it out.
As my novels are set in a place much like my real life home, I thought I'd use this blog to share pictures of our farm and county. I've been blogging for over four years now, on an almost daily basis, and the topics have ranged from writing, chickens, food, books, quilts, flora and fauna of all sorts, to the occasional tiny rant. There's no plan, but there are lots of pictures.
There's more information about me and my books on my web site: http://vickilanemysteries.com/

Hi Vicki-We must both have had blue on the mind this morning. Have a great day. The eggs have been a hit.

Gorgeous shots Vicki! :)
Beautiful pictures and beautiful words!

Beautiful photos and Haiku. I don't know why, but such a feeling of peace came over me when I read the Haiku.
Hey, Pepper! Glad the eggs survived the trip!

Vicki - your images and Haiku are wonderful. And book worthy, I'm thinking . . .
Thank you so much. Kaye! Wouldn't that be nice? Who knows, maybe someday . . . And then Meryl Streep could play me in the movie ;-)
Why, you know, she COULD!!
