One Day. Bedlam Farm Heart Photo

One Day

I walked down the stairs this morning by myself, I went to take a shower by myself (first time) and then to get dressed by myself (first time). Looking out the window, I saw the light in the barn and, naked and scarred, rushed towards the door. I look at my big camera. I can do this, I thought, and then stopped. I can’t do this and shouldn’t do it. I called out for Maria and she came rushing down the stairs thinking I was in trouble, but instead, graciously picked up my camera and she saw the light too, and we both ran outside – Red too – (she was dressed), if anyone had seen me they would had had a heart attack, I am a scary sight naked these days.

But we walked to the gate, I was giving some directions, move here, move there, follow the light and being an artist, Maria knew just what I meant. So she got some nice shots, our collaboration, another Bedlam Farm Heart Photo. I’m glad I didn’t pick up the camera.
