red sky, red water side b of sacred ground by Judy Martin

Informed by solitude and by the earth, and the plants that grow wild, 

Quieted by the slowness of hand stitching, and the dreamy place it sends me.

Comforted by the peaceful horizon line I look at across the water

Inspired by trembling grasses and by birdsong, by every day and by every evening, 

By the view of sky and water that I wake with, 

A reverence for moments briefly glimpsed but always there.   Judith e Martin 2024

One of 40 pieces juried for the first ever SAQA exhibition in print.  This exhibition will be included in the SAQA journal 2024 Issue #4  (available in December)
