l am a bird in a cage
pretty and loved
yet I feel so alone
people delight and stare
they love my cage
and the clever way I get carried around
when the admiring is done,
it is back into a box I go
what good is it to be pretty and loved
if I can’t be free
It has been a mushroom day. Hopefully you have found your day just as interesting.

Good morning everyone, I was very happy when I came across these empty fields and spied gigantic wheels hidden behind the trees. It was on the same day that I found myself alone in the quiet surroundings of farm land that for whatever reason, at that time, was void of human activity.
PL calendar day 12 Always pray to become a better person

Live today to the fullest
PL Ancestors Day service is at 10 a.m. today, September 11th. Tuesday.
There are days when you are blessed with the opportunity to simply wander. Today I took to country roads that I have not been on before and came across this little creek. I actually stopped the car and got out. Far from any well travelled roads, it was blissfully serene. The sun was high overhead, I could feel the warm rays on my shoulders, head, back, for a second, I wanted to run back to the car and the air con… but.. the sound of crickets and a passing butterfly changed my mind. I stayed.
Lingering on the old bridge, I was rewarded with a delightful pattern of a soft tobacco orange taupe growth. Delicate and interesting displayed against the soft and darker grays of the railing. Man made time was not important, being present in my surroundings, was all encompassing
This for me …. was a vacation.
PL calendar day 10 When you are not having fun, could it be because you are being Lazy? Sometimes you f eel blue or can’t seem to find the joy in doing anything. At times like this, just get up and move your body or work your mind to the fullest extent.

lush, beautiful … soft, sensuous
gentle rhythms pulsate — in the tremendous
flight of imagination … that takes place
when I am drawn into that creative space
of canvas, acrylics and the artists need
to create the emotion that begs expression
all because my computer misbehaves
PL calendar day 9 It’s interesting because it’s different
Free your mind to consider other and all possibilities.
Happy start to a new week!

While the corn just sits, waiting for what comes next
When we flow with life around us, our flexibility is often helpful in the choices we make. Standing still and never looking around, means much of the world will pass you by
Then of course you can find yourself in this situation, where the rest of the world is simply crowding your space, and it has nothing to do with you at all. You are in the crowd, but you do stand out. =^_^+ challenges, choices and decisions. Here we are, starting another day!
