Freed

Take on the world
freed with imagination
where love can grow
and nothing is forgotten

Aphids

Happy St. Paddy's Day!

I've been warring with aphids the last few days. How dare they enter my spaced and try to destroy my plants. I realize I feel very protective of my patio and have tried to create a space that is relaxing and joyful, that is a sense of comfort and relaxation.

A space where I can think, read and write, and express my inner thoughts. It is almost a sacred space to me, this little cemented covered space that is my own in the out-of-doors. Sometimes I am out here early to hear the birds call and see the morning come, and sometimes well into the night, reluctant to abandon it and go inside.

It is a space I can release my creative thoughts and allow new ideas to enter. It is my favorite part of my new home. I've come to realize it is passionately important to me.

I am like a mother with here plants, admiring their beauty when they bloom, encouraging each new growth, being proud of their stamina through winds and rain storms, doctoring their ills and feeding their physical selves, and celebrating their differences.

And we have welcome friends, such as the hummingbirds and bees which gain sustenance from them, but a horde of aphids? Definitely not welcome. Leave my garden be....

Seeker

This seeker that I am
seeking answers
will find them
waiting in the stars
and the little voice
that dwells within

Burning this world away

Burn away the transient
leave behind what's pure
a shining essential light
no more suffering to endure
heaven makes all right

Walk on Water

Some are born to walk on water, others to walk this green earth dwelling on the present and this treasure called life, and in doing so, feeling truly alive. This is the gift, so believe.

Something to believe in

We all need good, beauty, and truth. It gives us something to believe in. It gives the mind, heart, and soul refuge. It makes us aware of the gift that is life, and lets us live in the present, as we're meant to.
