Graceful lady , poor but strong
She’s sitting outside in the winter days
and nights of saddened clouds
asking for helpful pennies and golden pounds
homeless , sometimes feeling helpless
but strong in her centred comfortable sometimes sunny space
graceful in a bluebell fashionable lovely light
sitting on her basket which she has cleverly weaved herself
she sits in a dress lacking in colour
a dress so tired from feeling the cold and rain
sitting , sometimes sad with her place in the world

All I can do
Is remain calm
Feel the balm
Of an oceans breath,
Breathe in good prana
As clouds cool
Warm earth below,
Of these I sing!
Hum your tunes
When you're blue,
Cerulean canvas
Seeks warmest hues.

Gnominal Gnomes
Gnomadic a wandering, meandering gnome
Misgnomer a female gnome
Metrognome uses the London Underground
Gnominate lazy gnome, idle
Gnomad a sane gnome
Gnoman'sland where male gnomes reside
Gnome de guerre see agnominous
Agnominous a gnome with nous
Gnome de plume not a real gnome, might be a plum!
Gnome de plump An overweight gnome
Gnome more enough already!

HONESTLY, I DON'T KNOW WHY
WONDER
There you are
in all your grandness, in
all of your difference,
AND,
at my heart and soul
level I am attracted
to YOU and wow and how.
But honestly, I don't
know 101 reasons why.
I JUST AM!
Yes, I know that's
too simple in today's
explosion of words
and pseudo compliments,
games and lies.
You may ask or
wonder too, and
when I try to answer
you think, I guess,
that I am playing
a game.
NO! NEVER!
BUT
on second thought
maybe it's because
of YOU being...

WORDS FROM BALTASAR GRACIAN
WISDOM
This afternoon
I am elated to
find in my old notes
sayings by Baltasar Gracian,
from the early 1600s.
They, as all my past mentors,
inspire me in new and
meaningful ways.
"Cultivate relationships with
those who can teach you. Let
friendly intercourse be a school
of knowledge, and let culture
be taught through conversation.
Thus you make your friends your
teachers ..."
YOU have become my teacher
in old and new subjects;
you have unlocked the
doors to secret passion,
you...

MORE WORDS FROM SOCRATES
THINKING
I hope I am not
boring as I once
again share from my
old philosophy lecture
notes, more words
from Socrates:
"The only true wisdom
is in knowing you
know nothing ...The
unexamined life is
not worth living ...Be
kind, for everyone you
meet is fighting
a hard battle."
I am so blessed to
be able to get to know
you; together we examine
the possibilities of our
place in the universe as
our hearts beat more and
more in sync.
Our past hurts and ...

THE MAGIC OF RUMI'S WORDS
QUIETNESS
This morning in my
meditation I thought
of these words from
one of my mentors,
the ancient holy man,
Rumi, born in Afghanistan
September 30, 1207.
"Love has taken away
my practices and
filled me with poetry. I
tried to keep quietly repeating,
not strength but yours,
but I couldn't.
I had to clap and sing"
As I cherish your love
and magic it creates,
I have abandoned all
other interest, even to the
point of celibacy...well
maybe that's going too far.

WORDS FROM MARCUS AURELIUS
EXCITED
I am so excited
like a kid in a
candy shop to
rediscover old
truths and philosophies
from my past lectures.
Here is one from another
of my mentors, Marcus Aurelius.
"Dwell on the beauty of life.
Watch the stars, and see
yourself running with them
... the happiness of your life
depends on the quality
of your thoughts."
Because of YOU I
am able to dwell on
the beauty of life;
I ride the stars in
my dreams and fantasies
of you continually.

TODAY! Today is the DAY.
TIME
I'm not sure if
it's true that
Charles Dederich
said, "This is the
first day of the
rest of your life" first.
I do know that
yesterday ended
last night and
tomorrow is not
guaranteed or promised.
I do KNOW that
I have TODAY, not
even sure I'll have
all 24-hours.
TODAY!
Today is the day
I will continue my dream
of you, imagine your
kisses and passion.
Today I will write YOU
love poems and drink
moonlight wine as we
slow dance into our
world of magic. ...

WORDS FROM PLATO
WISDOM
Here is another
piece of wisdom
I rediscovered in
my old philosophy
lecture notes from Plato:
"Every heart sings a song,
incomplete, until another
heart whispers back.
Those who wish to sing
always find a song.
At the touch of a lover,
everyone becomes a poet"
Today I shall imagine
your touch, even though
you are far, far away,
my beautiful lover;
listen to the wind and
you will hear my love song;
in your soul meet me
at the Kissing Place and
I will write new poems...
