a chance encounter
shadows cast a spell
allowing me to see
the world in your eye
when the sun moves on
you will be gone
I won’t forget, but
your location
I won’t tell
your secret is safe
with me

shadows
Shadows cast their imprint on the forest floor, not looking up, I wanted to read the storyline that played out on the fallen pines and organic debris that carpeted the way
autumn sun was high in the sky, so that the filtered light cast beautifully defined lines against the rusted shades of brown and grays that lay textured, the perfect foil for the images being projected for our viewing.
PL Precept #1 Life is Art.
How we creatively interact with the challenges and opportunities that come our way, if we were to see them only visually, it would be like the shadows shown above. dynamic and static meeting as ONE.

Wishing
Wishing I could reach out and comfort you,
I saw your tears begin to flow
you tried hard to be composed
but the sadness in your heart, needed to let go
You looked out with eyes, that brimmed with pain
your tender heart was bruised and weary
so many senseless deaths, how much more
could you be expected to endure.
Life is not always easy, rainbows appear only after the rain
it isn’t always easy to understand
why there are times., when God calls home the chosen ones
and how it happens, isn’t always or easy to comprehend
each flower has its time in the sun, then it fades away
and is gone, life simply flows along,
I reached out to wipe your tears
of course you were miles away, yet I know you felt the love
of all who shared your pain that day.
Everything we say and do, is for reason
sometimes we know right away, and other times
the light bulb comes on when we least expect it to.
Know that always, LOVE will be there for you
journals are merely earthly tools to help us
mirror what is in our hearts
I send this wish out to you tonight
may the blessings of the moon and stars
bring sweet dreams to you this night
so that tomorrow, all will be sunny and bright.

a prayer for you my friend.

Happy Monday
Bright, colourful, a visual delight
I am wishing with all my might
that this week
will be an endless maze
of happy days
whether skies be blue or gray
I earnestly pray
each and every one of you
will find that God’s grace will visit you
and you will be rewarded
with the best life has to offer you
for dreams and wishes
to come true
we need only believe
love belongs to me and you

and then- sorrow
the wind blew
rain fell
still my heart
simply lay
like a heavy stone
the light had gone
the sun no longer shone
I was not alone
yet I know
I am still
mourning
and nothing
can be done
till the moment comes
that tears are done
you gave unconditional love
now you soar above the clouds
your wings the brilliance of stars
I miss your earthly presence
but for you, free of pain
and earthly ties
you are now free
you will always be
the forever angel in my heart

gave meaning to the word love
always my sunshine and light!
sometimes out of nowhere
you don’t know why
but there it is,
you’ve been beckoned by a tree
it is just a tree you say
either way,
here you are
examining and wondering
what the message will be
after all, there is something
really special about the tree
look how proudly and
beautifully it shows off its scars
life is not always easy
for a tree
suddenly by jove
you see the cutest of faces
smiling at you
love at first sight =^_^=
always now I’ll know
when I drive by
my friend, the tree
will be looking out for me.

Wordless Wednesday -proof
Some people …. don’t care..
they are totally unaware
yet wonder why
the world is less than perfect
and are the first to cry
and criticize
the work of others.
Just saying….
Sunday roses
How wild does their garden grow
wow I don’t know said Mr Crow
For years now I come to explore
each passing year brings new colour in the rows
see the roses are in full bloom right now
& cherries are forming on the trees
come back in a week or two
the Saskatoon berries will be a feast
bring friends, this garden is here for us
nice meeting you Mr Crow,
my name is Jay
in a flash of blue he was off
cawing as he flew
I’ll be back to see you soon
Rosco chuckled as he flew higher up the tree
life is good when
friends drop in showing appreciation and enjoy their visit
he liked being called Mr. Crow
Mr. indeed, and he chuckled some more
could he be getting old
in full voice, he cawed and called out
Happy Sunday everyone!

It’s too hot, let me be
Yeah the humidity is a killer..
we have no energy..
and here I was
thinking it was only me!
Chop Suey Tuesday
With the goings on in the world today, I’m never sure what will greet me when I first listen to the news after a lovely night of sleep.
I first wrote this little poem back in the fall of 2007, I made a few changes, to share it with you now…. have fun, let your imagination flow.
How eerie the night
when everyone looks for a fright
carved pumpkin heads
leer with evil delight
their eyes bleary and red
their lopsided grin
sends a chill from within
children cheer with delight
when ghosts go bump in the night
So tuck yourself in
don’t let the news of the day,
scare your good sense away.
Once upon a time, October came once a year
Now it seems, every day is one the speaks of fear.
Really, let’s think on this, do we want to live this way
I pray each day, that our friendships
will flow and grow
till each and every one of us
in reaching out, will overtake
the negativity spread by “others”
and put pumpkins back on the table
in tasty pies that we will gladly share
with everyone, for they will be filled with
thanksgiving, love. friendship and appreciation,
stock ingredients of our every day.
Blessings.
PL Precept # 11 Always be with God.
