Every day I hear the birds chirping
Every day I hear the birds chirping
Like small blue bits in dreams
But what is it I’m hearing?
Wonderingly, I placed my nose
through the glass window
and I see joy today.
The light guide is true.
Summery shadow lives,
The landscapes frolic.

The twists and turns in your path
lead to unexpected destinations.
Both long and short roads
are sometimes curved
and sometimes straight.

remain flexible and continue the journey.
Enjoy and learn from the adventure

A fleeting moment
A fleeting moment
A pop festival of colored chalk
open one’s eye to black lights on a canvas
jams with paisley patterns
a beautiful revolution …
sweet and short,
A fleeting moment.

We Are Like Nature
We Are Like Nature
Look around you,
like clouds, your thoughts
change shape as it passes through,
and disappear without a trace.
Nature is a mirror,
a teacher and inspiration.
Walking through the world,
the metaphors of connectedness.
lead to understanding the mystery of life.

Remembering
The Memorial Day has been ignored by too many of us
who are beneficiaries of those who have given the ultimate sacrifice.
Often we do not observe the day as it should be,
a day where we actively remember our ancestors, our family members,
our loved ones, our neighbors, and our friends who have given the ultimate sacrifice.

“I hope your dreams take you …
to the corners of your smiles,
to the highest of your hopes,
to the windows of opportunities,
and to the most special places your heart has ever known”
Sweet Mom
Happy thoughts like flowers
brighten up our day.
Have a Beautiful Mother’s day !
Pattern
Like a peacock, your beauty is multiplied
when you spread your wings and show the world your stuff!
Don’t be afraid to be who you are
– each peacock feather is flawed and imperfect,
but collectively they create something of great beauty.
Your flaws are what make you perfect!

Uncover the richness of time gone by.

Eyes Skyward
Eyes skyward
Boldly pursue dreams
beyond that seem so grand,
so out of reach.
Realize that Intentions become
a part of the search for meaning
beyond the stretch of imagination.
Step outside the limits
Beyond the fence and borderlines
follow the path of your ambitions
beyond the skies above.
Grow confident
And aim for the highest heights.
Beyond questions and beliefs.
The search for meaning will eventually
evolve into an unshakable
Self-assurance and impenetrable will.
Aim Ever Higher.

The Season following Winter
The Season following Winter
Catch a likeness of delicate flush and
graceful lines on crimson tinted blades.
A glance captures more than a glimpse of dew
resembling the shade of flaming ink.
Without fail, light charm sweet thoughts
and take off in all directions.
The seeds of freshness feel light
an unclouded afterglow of restful calm.
It is the season following winter.

Lighthearted
Zippy
I am the Inner Child.

Inner Sunrise
Inner Sunrise
There is something about sunrise,
the first few hours of the morning.
As we embrace the moment of light
and breath for a brand new day
Say out loud
“I am ready to let go of the past and start anew.
Mindful of all possibilities
Today, I begin my Inner Sunrise.”

Lighthouse
The beam of home to lost sailors passing by;
night owl of the day.
Look heavenwards the rock of strength shines.
The flash of light, a heartwarming embrace
“ I can breathe.
I can relax.
I know I am safe.
I am home.”
