Galadriel's Choice
Silent hope beats in the heart,
mixed with the fear of failure,
for valiance is proven in the art
of preserving loyalty in the behaviour,
when tested amid seductive trials,
the domain of inner strength,
then weakness battles in denial,
seeking excuses, while one repents.
Galadriel stood by the well
that predicts doom of the races.
As if a mirror beyond mere spells,
true teller, not of fortune, but of faces.
She wanted to ignite within
the spark of higher immortality,
not innately, despite all sin,
but...

GARDEN OF EXCUSES
Place a fence around the Garden of Excuses for habits
To ward off the strays: dogs, foxes and rabbits
That nibble on our fruited seeds and vegetation
Ruining the livestock of our generation.
Don’t allow the rabbits near the carrots
Nor the little foxes near the parrots!
Shun them away from the garden
‘Lest they ruin the garden without pardon!
Your betrayal has no pardon
As you allowed my heart to harden
I created a comfortable cradle
Never knowing it would be fatal!

We as one love
We as one love always and forever as we each change each others life and world. 🌍 For I knew that you were the one that was sent, from above to really brighten up my life and show me that love, does exist in some people's hearts and the minds of those who haven't given up, on finding that special one. For sure it was you and I together as one love, with honesty and truth and trust. FROM the very beginning of our paths crossing, like a shooting star shooting across the distance skies. For sure we both had our share of the make believe stories of lies, and false promises that required...

Bart’s Bouncing Donuts.
Bartholomew "Bart". My Buttercup. He’s a man of boundless enthusiasm, a heart of pure spun sugar, and ideas that would make a caffeinated squirrel look lethargic. I love him dearly. Truly, I do. But sometimes, his entrepreneurial spirit… well, it leaves me a little breathless.
For years, he’s been plagued with flightless business adventures. The "Chihuahua Chinchilla", the "Edible Eyeglasses", the "Self-Folding Laundry". (the less said about the hamster union strike, the better). I still find stray sunflower seeds in the dryer....

Kneel Unto Heaven Stand Upon Faith (The Book of Esther)
Lord, I'm going to hold steady on to You and You've got to see me through.
Harriet Tubman
Heritage to Queens and Kings to proclaim battles with written declarations of one's sovereignty with unspoken philosophical weapons
Twisted tongues in life, adaption of its feeble scorn
In the hereafter, I have glimpsed mortality to give hearts reprisal upon reborn
To the keepers of the wind, fire, air, and of the sea
The fourscore entwined, defined of mouths when...

thirty-won
is this a birthday,
or the reminder of an impending anniversary?
does it bring to mind that near fatal January day?
are you happy you ultimately stayed?
you were 17,
you had been adopted at 2,
you moved every 4 years,
you were recently diagnosed with bipolar.
stability and consistency were long gone concepts,
drugs found you along the way,
loneliness was the only view,
you felt pathetic while your mother wept.
you were 20,
you had the girl and lost her,
you dropped out of college,
your...

how, now, i’m possible
No. 12 From the Children’s Collection]
“Nothing is impossible; the word itself says ‘I’m possible!’”
―Audrey Hepburn
o’er our blue mountains,
i wish i could fly,
how, now, impossible;
swing on the white clouds
that gently float by,
how, now, impossible. ...

A Fable of Success
A camel safari and a bright red Ferrari, were parked on the road to success.
The car door was open, the salesman hope’n, I’d honor his pitch with a yes.
But the camels were braying, their owners praying, I’d hire their service instead.
Sounding like parrots, proclaiming their merits, playing to the thoughts in my head.
Not being subtle, each had the rebuttal, for whatever the other would say.
Extremely persuasive, clever and evasive, like many universities today.
One had great speed, and would surely succeed, given the favored terrain.
But...

The Job Interview
She sat in her chair fidgeting. She sized up the room and saw the men looking poised and confident. She wondered why she was there. She had done her research and knew that there had never been a woman hired for the position she was there to interview for. Thoughts of doubt flooded her mind. It was pointless. Its not that she wasn't qualified. Qualification was one thing that she wasn't lacking. Years of putting in her dues had paid off in that regard. This was a man's world. Although she had found her place, it was a place that those men were comfortable with. This was different. She was...

Standing In The Light Of His Heaven
Ahh that super vanity word that has been the downfall or uprising of women since the beginning of our time.
It is Wednesday and we’re almost through another work week, where is time evolving. In lieu of that question, I do hope everyone is adjusting to the absence of the hour.
The energy being released here today leading up to a pivotal moment of watching a Solar Eclipse is and will be crucial to the mind Heaven (heart), Earth (the temple), and it plays like a magnetic field to the soul (rebirth).

Well hello everyone we have just crossed the helm of another month, and before I get to my blessing and divine salutations ladies make sure you check your breasts for the month of March, wow, can you all believe we are already in the price of the third month, we had an extra day added the elements of time, for all you adorable infants that were birth yesterday, may you celebrate your life each day, as if it was you birthday celebrated in the moments of awaited time.
