Earth to Ash Podcast Episode # 9 – So, What’s Dove Got To Do With It?

Welcome back, join me and my continuing conversation about my thoughts, feelings, and emotions to the world around me.

In this episode, I talk about how seeing a white dove helped me decide to change my life. How sometimes the hardest job can be taking a new one. And, how the universe speaks to us. Oh, and as always, I throw in a poem and a quote for good measure.

Blueberry Hill

we’re together again
scraping and scrounging along the hillside 
every three paces we fill our cups

I am seven again
catching up with your pace
as my bucket spills over
on blueberry hill
