new writing studio

To make room for the little racecar, 

I switched my office from the front of the house to the back.  

Here's a few pictures of the space:

my wonderful desk

a few favorite books

and an orange kitty who loves our new room

untitled poem

as summer approaches

i cover my face

wanting to find

my own quiet place

to lay my head

on a cool, crisp sheet

why can't i have

a nap that's complete

without all this light

and sunshine and cheer

when will it leave?

never, i fear

i want to sleep

for all of the day

so nighttime come quick

please don't delay

your pale moons and gray

skylines above

in darkness i rest

peaceful, in love

new studio

As a result of my little racecar on the way, I needed to move my writing studio from the front of our house to the back.  I was hesitant to do this because I loved my original office so much, but I think the change as been good for me. I found inspiration in framing new pictures for the wall above my desk.

Pictures clockwise starting in middle: sketch by my sister Miranda Maxwell, watercolor of The Little House, illustration from "A Child's Garden of Verses", the lighthouse at Beavertail, school pictures of me and my husband (ages 5 and 7), Baily's Beach, envelope decorated by my mom, Save the Date for my wedding (artwork by Miranda Maxwell)
