Three Sisters

three sisters on holiday at the shore
a time away from husbands, work, children
on the boardwalk in a small shop they buy matching hats and dresses
laughing and teasing as they do so, slipping into old familiar roles
after supper they walk barefoot for miles on the beach
arm in arm, leaning into each other, sharing their stories, cherishing each moment
knowing it will never happen again

maple, sycamore, walnut
9-12" tall
they are hollow, the hat crown a friction fit stopper
the dots are inlay
each contains the scent of a different perfume

Nodali Llama Speaks

EARTHLINGS HEED MY WORDS!

I am an ambassador sent by the Universe. You are an embarrassment!

Your house is burning and you fight amongst yourselves!

The water that gives you life is being poisoned and you fight amongst yourselves!

The air you breathe is fouled and you fight amongst yourselves!

The ice caps are melting and you fight amongst yourselves!

The frogs and bees and fish are dying and you fight amongst yourselves!

YOUR HOUSE IS BURNING AND YOU ARE FIGHTING OVER WHO GETS THE TELEVISION!!

MAKE PEACE NOW AND HEAL YOUR HOME OR SOON YOU WILL HAVE NOTHING TO EAT BUT EACH OTHER!!

I have spoken.
