mission: MUSE - "where i live"

Above, Burntcoat Head, Nova Scotia.  Location of the world's highest recorded tides.  In a few hours after this was taken, billions of gallons of water would fill the entire area.

I Am From

I am from two who love me

I am from the ocean and the trees

At the end of a family of five

And the others that came and went

I am from motherhood, surrounded by love and chaos

I am from hugs and kisses and school projects, trips here and there

  rubby fingers and prom dresses, cattle shows, encouragement, tears and 

  frustrations; dinner on the table.

I am from always trying to be

Here for you; trying to guide your way.

I am from unconditional love

From goodnight kisses and cuddles, holding hands

I am from big strong arms around me for no particular reason, safe and sound.

I am from you.

Thank you for visiting where I live. Please feel free to visit my blog to learn more about my life in Nova Scotia.

Until next time! Martha of Heartwork Photography.
