What a fantastic night

 

The one thing I always find fascinating is when the mist/fog {CLOUDS} settle in the hills all the way to the bottom of the hollow. I am sitting on my porch, looking at the neighbors  house and i’m having difficulty seeing their porch light. I love it. When I was driving home,  its as if a cloud fell into a ravine, bringing much needed moisture in a beautiful form. All of our water comes from our clouds, as the Earth sends the evaporated groundwater straight up. Wild to think of, like we’re in a bubble … or are we? hmmmm…..oh wait, sorry 🙂 Thats another Blog.

Here is the beginning of a collection I started Awhile Ago. The last 5 years have flown by so fast. I am definitely excited, to finally get this started! I am not big on titles!?!

As I feel the sun warm my skin

an instant smile spreads

across my face, through my whole body

The sun glistens on the snow

as if the ground

was littered with diamonds

The rhythm of the creek is my background

complimenting the forest the most beautiful score

And as my breath begins to calm

and my senses take it all in

I praise our Lord for our planet

and all the beauty it beholds

Initiation

My first post, some would think, would be a piece of my work. I agree. But I changed my mind

I debated where to start. What category, just one? It became an obstacle. And then, in an old box I found this poem by William Henry Yeats. I was going to type it but the 1994 library copy is too good to miss.

This Poem is from his book Aedh Wishes for the Cloths of HeavenIt was published in 1899 in his third volume of poetry, The Wind Among the Reeds.

There is so much more to this poem, as I myself learned yesterday. I guess I was realizing how much these words have influenced others.

So , here goes it 😉

Please , all I ask is to remember dear reader, and hopefully new friend, we are all treading on each others dreams. Please tread softly. This world needs as much empathy as we can muster.

May this blog evolve and grow into a sanctuary where we can heal, share, comfort, and nurture one another.

Gratitude to you

Peace out many blessings
