In no particular order:
being alone in a small boat on big water
the various curves of our bodies
things found under the bark of trees, and
the patterns revealed as wood decays
the stars
fire
other sparkly things
the interplay of light and shadow
ancient clay figures and vessels
the shapes that appear in stone as it's carved
harp music playing while I throw
memories of my parents and their stories
the rituals of everyday life, and of the seasons
