dreamt, in blue.
Never
was a worthiness
instilled or nurtured,
is how I thought you lived—
assumed a universal sameness
to be colored in grey
a sort of anguishing
so alone
in all hushed tones
was usual of mind
figuring out life
my potential
with perfect errors
trial and mistrial
and contacts made
connections of soul deep
allowing for that
learned growth
where then,
(sometimes are) tedious long
processes
forever in making
me, me
times spent in decades
and seeming eons
to mould, shape
even to resect
piece by damaged piece
struggle born
against heated grain
all inescapable misfortune
and pillars pulled, so very wrought
to finally set my mind above
reaching higher
to be exactly
who I was meant to be
was the hardest
of such moments
born of distinct
crystallized pressure
how uniquely known?
to be self loved
to be so very cherished
in worth, deeds
and a soulful
accepted knowledge
as love becomes
a proven beautifying force
... and
You—
become your own love of a lifetime.

I love butterflies, period
the blue morpho is just.... yeah.
A perfect analogy.

Once again the magic in nature has amazing lessons to teach us; the key is to freely and with understanding interpret them...always remembering, unlike nature, we are not pre-programmed but self-programmed. A great write as usual beautiful Princess and mistress of words.Hugs, kisses, and peace, oral

Thank you, Oral... sometimes my own thoughts and innermost demons can't allow me to see what you apparently do, so reading your thoughtful comments, gives me a perspective that's much needed and very much welcomed. I love having you visit and I wholeheartedly thank you.

Dearest, Lady Blue
This is a masterpiece response to the weekly phrase.
Some highlights from me are the following,
"with perfect errors" This is an existential truth that I will ponder for awhile🌹
"tedious long
processes
forever in making
me, me"
Amen to this. It's taken me years to understand that I am my sole arbiter of my happiness. We can't be made to feel that we are enough. We have to know this independent of any other's opinion good or evil.🌹🌹
"to finally set my mind above
reaching higher
to be exactly
who I was meant to be"
Realistically seeking height of our bar is sobering and may seem like we are settling.There is a lot of power in knowing our limits. You paint that picture perfectly in this passage.🌹🌹🌹

Re: Re. dreamt, in blue.
Thems some very nice compliments my friend!!
Hee hee hee
I really do appreciate your thoughtfulness BB. this write wasn't like my other DU phrase of the week piece, which flowed like buttah... lol... This was a struggle to piece together, I feel personally, that's obvious, but it's what came, when I tried accessing inspiration... lol. I enjoy your first line choice and like that you'll ponder."perfect errors" .. I was looking at a minimalist kind of way to say , sometimes mistakes or errors we make teach us things that we normally wouldn't have been taught, had we had not made those mistakes. Possibly changing, being the person that we are currently... just my thoughts...
Those last lines where one's from the challenge they weren't my own.. but I agree. impactful!!
Thanks for the visit and comments...
I'm grateful
Much love,

💖🙏 Through perpetual oscillations of the ekpyrosis cycle, everything that is, is a single out breath of the universe. I sometimes focus on this during Zazen breath focus meditation. Your awareness yourself is your connection to everything. It is beautiful.

Quite a self-discovering poem with grand metaphorical imagery that shows me the way to chrysalis. You really took me into the heart of passion and the wisdom to realize who you are and where you are going. Kind of a roadmap for life you've penned. Your personal life but relevant to others too.

It was a chance to push myself by using the DU phrase of the week, to write about... this was my result with that phrase. I appreciate your insights, John and I'm humbled by your generous RL add.
Ty for following my little map O' Susan.... Hahaha
I am appreciative 🙏
Much love,

swaddled in technicolor robes laying over our monochromatic bones. Lifted up only to be thrown down. I hold up a mirror to you, so that you can see the beautiful blue velveteen dream of a woman you are, deserving of all the love, self and otherwise, that a soul can hold
