Vinyl 

Music full of color and life

Captured for the ages

Pressed flat

Shoved into a sleeve

Inserted between two slices of colored pasteboard

Stacked layer upon layer

Never touching each other

Only touching the one who listens

The one who dares to be moved

Each one has a story

Waiting to be found

Waves

Waves

I am far from home

Adrift and lost

The waves of doubt carry me

Farther and more lost

Someday they will carry me home

But not this day

This day I am alone

This day I am lost

This day I am the wave

The bringer of doubt

I am the one who carries me away.

Good To The Last Word

Pleasures can be as simple as a good book and a nice cup of tea. It is no more complicated than that.

The question then becomes why we must make pleasure so complicated. This distraction or that distraction designed for pleasure only makes us more unsatisfied. The more complicated the distraction the more unsatisfied we become.

What has happened to this world? We have become forgetful of the simple things. We have forgotten that a good cup of tea and a good book has more satisfaction than most other things designed to give us pleasure.

Bells, whistles and perfect pixel games are no match for true pleasure. It is all a matter of desire to be pleased by the simple things. So boil the water and select a book and remember what true pleasure is all about.

Dark Wing 

Don’t mourn the darkness

Don’t bow to its will

Look up Rise up. Fly up

 

You have the power

You have inner strength

Use it. Find it. Feel it.   

 

There is truth in life

There are gifts to give

Give it live it be it

 

Dark wing of truth’s light

Fly on with purpose

Bring it into the bright day

A Perfect Princess Day

A Perfect Princess Day 

Pink was the color of the day

Pink was the color of the balloons

Pink was the color of the streamers

Pink was the color of the wrapped packages

Pink was the color of the ice cream

Pink was even the color of the cake

It was a perfect pink princess day   

Happy Birthday to All the Princesses!

The Girl With The Axe

No one would believe it unless they saw it. She was a little girl with a grownup’s axe. She chopped and shredded the notes like she had been doing it for longer than her short life. Some people call that an old soul. She wouldn't agree.

It wasn't her soul that made her play the way she did. It was her heart. She had a heart filled with music. It’s a rare gift for one so young.

Many never heard the music of their heart. Not everyone knew how to listen to the subtle tones within the beating of their heart. But she knew how to listen and how to send the music to your very soul.
