forever is now

IMG_1775

as I walk past you today

I hear only the cicada chirping away in the branches

the black bird has flown out o sight

but I can feel him watching

you see ALL

you have changed so much

over the years,

yet you still look as majestic

as you did three years ago

IMG_1780

I told you then I’d be back

it took three years, but here I am

I am changed as well

I feel like I will live with you forever

I know in my heart

that we are ONE

that forever is NOW

that tomorrow will really never come

cuz when I wake

it will be today

so just like now

this moment,

here and now

we are forever bound

Rain

rain rain

go away

I’m really late

you must not stay

P1000214

with the door

so far away

I’m stuck inside

till you go away

P1000211

you are putting me to sleep

that  steady driving drumming

on the roof

soothing, soft and calming

yawning, I give in

engulfed tamed by your lullaby

my busy mind

will stop chattering & meditate

till you go away

PL Precept # 19  Begin Once You Perceive

Namaste       –       Oyashikiri

Sometimes in life, we need to listen to our inner voice.. stop running, we are doing, doing doing, but not being effective,  Life will find a way to step in and ensure you stop, listen, and recharge.

 

treasure of the day

door handle poem 1 door handle poem

 

a bit of fun, I collect a treasure now and then from my trips… Have a wonderful start to the new week everyone! Thinking of you!

Wordless Wednesday, almost

 

Look beyond your immediate view

a whole new and different world

awaits you

across Billings

When we make the time to

look beyond the trees

we never know just what we will see

P1000047

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Thinking of you

remembering how beautiful life is

because you are in it.

PL Precept # 11   Always be with God

17 mai, May 17

sheep crossing

Yes, today is Tuesday, and we are once again, taking to the roads,

off to somewhere, where we have not been in a while,

and some places, we’ve never been at all.

Ch4Btc_XAAAFqJv

No, we won’t be gone long

just long enough to change the channel in our minds

we don’t really plan, we determine a direction

and a few of the stops we’d like to make

along the way

if it should work out that we

find such a place along the way

motor bike

not just on the 17 of May

but really, any day, should be one of exploration

or discoveries

for honestly, we really do get to explore our boundaries

each and every day

if you always go right

perhaps see what happens when you turn left

it could be as simple as crossing a street

Till soon then,

we will be back by end of day

I’m off to play

Have a great and happy day!

PL Precept # 21  Live in Perfect Liberty

photos from social media

can anyone tell me what the 3 wheeler is?

love is….

DSC00357

I’ve lived all my life without ever having felt such an immediate connection

I knew that there was a horse in the paddock

his beauty I could see when we drove in

however, my focus was on the man raking the leaves

he was who we had come up the drive to see

when I disembarked from the truck

2 mature and protective great danes came to  greet me

although strangers, we all got along

the visit went with ease

when I turned to leave,

for some unknown reason,

it was not to the truck I went

but to the compelling figure at the fence

our eyes met, and I felt a sudden rush of recognition

of what I knew not what,

only that this handsome beast

knew my name and was wanting me closer

DSC00358

we met, we touched, both wanted more

how is it that I’ve never had a desire before to connect with a horse

I didn’t want to go, but I had to leave

will that moment come again,

I don’t know, but the encounter,

the soft muzzle, warm breath and gentle nudge

is etched in my memory

it was a moment REALLY  lived….

PL Precept # 18 EACH Moment is a turning point

dissatisfactions and complaints

 

happy not

not a happy face, nope, no joy found here

tired, weather worn and ragged

life has left an imprint of a bitter

state of mind

spent in the company of

dissatisfaction and complaints

hand of the past_edited-1

we, each and every one of us

is entitled to happiness

and the joy of living in a world

full of promise and hope

past charm

true, what was,

sometimes fades with the

changing seasons

but it is what is inside that counts

happy and even sad memories

make up our past

yet here we are

starting a brand new day

Sharon springs 8

our lives continue

like sparkling  spring water flowing

over the dips and valleys

happily gurgling along

over the variety of rocks

there really is no other choice, but to go with the flow

so why not use what dissatisfaction

and momentary complaints that come our way

as catalysts to improve and change our days

so that happiness is the mainstay

of our  daily “every day” lives.

appreciate whatever comes your way

the shade you see, will soon shift and fade away

Boats – waiting

 

All in a row

one by one

they sit and wait

for someone to come open the gate

DSC00250

it is a beautiful day

surely today will be the day

DSC00257

shadows play along the walls

racks wait patiently

to feel the weight of  their cargo

DSC00261

the sun shines down with promise

 anticipation is carried on the breeze

  Mother Nature  smiles & whispers

“all in good time”

we still are nowhere near the twenty first of May

DSC00239

soon, soon enough,

the grounds will be alive with activity

the sailing season

will begin

DSC00254

for now the few

who have come to enjoy

are blessed with a tranquil day

and open spaces of exquisite joy

Tuesday,sunshine and glue

abandoned.. dolphinjazz.tumblr.com Netherlands

Guess who went to bed and didn’t plug her cell phone in to recharge, first two guesses don’t count.  Usually no big deal, however, in an efficient mode these past months, I’ve been doing a tidy up.  You know how we can get when the season is changing, especially from winter to spring. “We never use our land line” said I. let’s get rid of it, we both have a cell phone, that will work out just fine.

f57b7a4c1ead74c51b8b54f93b4eb655

Good idea, right.. the hands free phones stationed all over the house for ease of access, went bye-bye. I admit there was a feeling of relief as one more item on my want to do list, got a tick mark beside it.  For every action there is a reaction. I had my cell phone number changed to the main home phone number,  so that worked out fine, more or less.  Calls I got for “the husband” simply were rerouted to his number.  BUT what happens then when our phones are not nearby, and we don’t hear them ring (ah HA! I got a blue tooth thingie, and I can answer mine from most parts of the house as long as the phone is within “striking” distance ,1,2,ever 3 rooms away ..  NOT if you are not wearing the bluetooth

Or if you are busy working on some project, like making greeting cards for the Church sale coming up in June (18th) and you are working with a sticky glue, that sticks to you, but not the card stock!!! The handy hands free that used to be by the desk is gone, your phone is in need of a change, and your blue tooth  gadget is ??? somewhere on your other desk in the clutter there.

That golden moment when you remember, your new set up, the cell phone has call answer and voice mail, YAY, so what your fingers and hands are full of sticky glue, you phone will take a message.  All I need do, is find Hubby to get the SSS (Skin so Soft- Avon)  great for taking away sticky stuff .. I’m sure somewhere there will be a website that will tell you of all it is claimed to be good for.  For us, it’s getting the glue/sticky off.

The start of a brand new day

open the window wide

take in all that comes your way

for only today

will you live the golden moments

for tomorrow, they will

have flown away.

There is always a positive to a negative

Yin/Yang

the two compliment each other

and become ONE
