A Fond Farewell

Comments Off

In Flight: from the Blackbird Series

Farewell to February and its fallen dark cloud dying under the bare white moon. A window the invisible healer bathed in bright morning sunshine. Beyond, songbirds roost in pink cotton balls of cherry blossom. In the sweet smell of purple lilac, crocuses, daffodils, and tulips blaze. Cool soft spikes of lush green grass peek out between young barefoot toes. A mid afternoon cleansing of spring showers leave behind rainbow filled puddles. The starry nightfall is a promise of wishes, where the Angel’s truth is written in the stars.

Dreams of thought

A silky flame
bright light of winter
search in time the silent destiny
the death of snow the petals dream

Stay well my friend and Happy Monday!

Cinquain 2011: Personal Growth

Comments Off

I just completed my 2011 calendar project, now it’s time to look forward into 2011, and come up with a magical cinquain and let it happen no make it happen.

My 2011 cinquain will be ‘Growth.’

Growth
expansive creative
spiritually, abundantly, authentically
deep within my soul
ripening

I’ve been working on ” A Seasons Change,” a photography illustrated contemporary Haiku book, for a while now. Completing this project will be one of my creative goals for 2011. A personal leap as well. By putting myself out there I will be held accountable to – get ‘r done!

If you have a cinquain for 2011 please share it here in the comments so we can support and encourage one another in the up coming year!

Stay well my friend and have a warm blessed weekend!

In the Autumn of My Life

Comments Off

Aloneness in her step
Unspoken assumptions are heard
Through trials and tribulations
Underneath thick skin is a tender heart
Mourning the autumn of life
Nourished by eternal sunlight

Ominous dark clouds lift
Follower no more

Lives with hope and dreams
Inward cleansing of self acceptance
Faith make her
Enough
