It's all about freedom ....
Warm sheets out of the dryer
That first cool breeze,
after months of sticky heat
Driving along, in a groove
to the perfect driving song
When salty mixes just right with sweet
Laying upon fresh cut grass
Puppy breath
People watching in the airport
The plane landing
in a place I've never been before
Roses that are self grown
Writing a poem that I'm extremely proud of
Good stretching of tired muscles
Happy memories of my father
Doing somersaults in the pool
Striving for social justice
and caring enough to be civically engaged
Waterfalls
Rainbows
The smell of ozone
That hint of new love blossoming
Really really good sushi
My favorite jeans
Breathing in salty beach air
with my feet dipped into the ocean
Being brave and knowing what courage is
Walking in the rain
Finding words, when before there were none
Movie theater butter popcorn
Rootbeer floats
The perfect kiss in the perfect place
Singing in tune
The colors blue, purple, red and black
Fresh cut pine
Binging an entire Netflix series
Birds that nest in my backyard
and their squirrel counterparts
Soft but firm pillows
Masculinity when it's sexy, not chauvinistic
Cosplay
Halloween
Horror movies
Anything zombie
Hiking in nature
Picturesque old weeping willow trees
Visiting museums and being lost in gorgeous art
Surrealism
Cats that play in boxes or ride the Roomba
Facials and manicures
The perfect haircut
That first spray of Ralph Lauren's Romance
eau de parfum
The scale reflecting lbs lost
Chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the oven
A long hot shower
Deep tissue massages
The phone ringing and it's you calling
Knowing that real goodness is innate
and it's true humility that begets true grace
and sometimes,
What is loved the most and hoped for,
can pale in comparison....
To all that IS stark freedom

This is the most amazing poem for our times. Wish it could be broadcast globally but especially to our weak leadership, etc. Thanks for sharing this. I have comrades over there, been there myself. Oh, let freedom ring. Oh yes, wonderful to see your beautiful picture back up. Hugs and peace, and kisses too, O

Re. It's all about freedom ....
Driving to anywhere destination unknown
skinny dipping in hot springs at midnight
reading poetry naked in the sun
friends
dark beer
watching bears eat your food
soaking tired feet in cool mountain streams
finding friends that inspire you
freedom is not an ideal
but a simple knowing of yourself
------------------
Our ideas of freedom are so remarkably different, freedom then is worshipping the differences. My soul's on fire reading this.

This is a crescendo on your poetic journey. I said Shazam when I read this. This was what the happiness of a life well lived is all about. You did much more than paint the scenes you breathed life into them. Everything is here to behold. My mind felt embraced both by your imagery and the flood of emotions your brushstrokes put in them. A fully blossomed flower of exquisite tonalities and textures. More than that the meaning of life philosophers have sought for millennia. You found it here.

Dear BV,
I don’t think there’s anything left to be said here. You’ve pretty much listed the very best things in life with one exception…where’s the buying of a fantastic pair of shoes??? Seriously! Have I taught you nothing??!!
Hehe just funnin’ ya. This poem is the it factor. It’s the things we take for granted and the very things so many die for trying to attain. They’re simple and pure and full of the real-real in life. Thoroughly enjoyed this reminder to appreciate every good thing in my world. They’re precious and fragile. Lovely piece. H🌷

My lovely Honoria,
I thought about shoes but I am not really a girly girl when it comes to them and I only like usually like Converse or Dr Martens... and I'd probably break my neck in heels 👠.. lmao ... But I should have definitely put on there having an unlimited budget at the Mac store.... I love makeup!!! Haha..... Go figure!
I am so glad you got the gist of my 'loves' list... Your lovely comments are truly uplifting and mean so much to me!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for your extremely generous list add.... I am so grateful for your visits.

Missing Out On All Those Finer Things In Life
It's A Window Into A World Whose Existence Lives Far Away From Current Reality
If It Happens To Be A Fragile Space That Is Occupied By Endless Continuous Conflict
But It Never Hurts To Walk Into A Dream That Turns Out To Be Someone Else's Life

Thanks, KP
Glad to get a few singing bars out of you! heh heh

That song is one of the ones that really epitomizes my childhood holiday feelings/recollections ... I can remember laying underneath the Christmas tree, looking up through the branches and the twinkling lights, slowly falling asleep while it was playing..... a memory indelibly inked, for sure....
Just flashed on that, when I read your comments.... lol.... I appreciate that!
