I painted a small painting of Shannon's wedding dress and I painted a small painting of a butterfly for a dear friend ...
And I took this image of another dear friend ...
His name is Frank and I have shared about him before .... his home is the lake and surrounding blocks and he is my friend. A friend who asked about my son every single day while he was deployed; a friend who calls me "Sunshine" and asks about me and if I am doing okay every time he sees me. A friend who has quoted passages from all kinds of books and who has shared with me his pearls of wisdom.... as he has lived the streets and the raw heartbeat of his life.
A friend until the end.... and beyond.
I am so glad I named this site almost 5 years ago Imagery by Kimberly because many times that is all that I share. There are times when my words are few. The words are in my head and I could go on and on and on.... but I tend to let the images speak for me. I guess it is the season.
Thank you so much for being here for my random imagery .... and understanding what I am trying to express in the way that I can, when I can. I know how blessed I am to have you.
Love,
Kim
Love you faraway friend! You have blessed us so much with your pictures and your words!

Thank you Kim for sharing bits and snips of your wonderful life. You have blessed my soul by your art, photographs and yes, words. They are few but express your heart and your love for God's creation. He loves us all big and small...keep on keeping on, until the end....and beyond. :-)

Your friend is a blessing in your life, Kim, and one that you acknowledge and are so very grateful for every day. I speak few words myself, because many times the pictures says it all.
I love you,

I love your paintings. Colorful, happy, loose. We were just reminiscing on GI and a couple of people mentioned you so I had to come by and take a look. Your friend Frank sounds like such a kind, considerate human. A treasure. I hope you and yours are all well, dear Kim.

(((Kim)))
I will be happy with just pictures or words or both, as long as you keep sharing glimpses of your world. Blogland wouldn't be the same without you in it. My life wouldn't be the same.
Thank you for still being here.
I love you,
