Moving trial ...

I have started posting over on Tumblr. We'll see how things go :-)

... its just for watering a lawn, but hey!

 

The lady at the bank was funny when I asked her to take my picture. She said "okaaay." I said "we're all very excited I have some employment again." 

Odd plant in my neighborhood. I call it the asparagus plant, 'cause it looks like asparagus! This amazing thing goes through various growing stages throughout the year. Fascinating to watch!

Tuesday
coming out of a cocoon
assimilation time transportation
i talk of sports now
time out
always something to be learned
past is past
middle phase
stages we go through
keep moving
speak of what
getting my head straight
reconstruction
new flowers are blooming
anchored in the moment
flowing mind state
as i follow the stream
life is all around
dance to the beat
of the path
my life sound

Monday
blue sky today
wonder what will come
up early and then some
who am i in this moment
what is today about
each day made new
feels like fall out
under active sunspots
over the drought
been raining all spring
i sit here sipping my tea green
another cold day in May it seems
sometimes i think in rhymes
especially when the sun
shines

Friday
The teal I feel
of ocean waves
seething and churning
yet soothing and brave

Watching color float in water
seems everyday its a shower
these days
the waves
mind, light, ocean
endless motion
yet contained?

Or connected
On the same wavelength
its said
Who, me, you, Monterey Bay.
Maybe its all connected

Stardust us
ocean of stars
nature trusts
its way
Do I trust today?

Mind, light, ocean
waves
Trust saves

Accidental minimalism

Tuesday
The sun is shining.
The clouds are gliding
past the trees.
There is a breeze.
As I sit in my b-girl stance
I take a glance
at the manic bees
contemplate balance
and watch the swaying
trees.

Monday
Rainy rainy afternoon.
Wonder if the water is washing up on the dunes
of North Carolina.
How are ya?

Quotes for Today

Traversing sun leads to a new season,
Vernal breath attunes the leaves.
When the sun begins its new pattern, spring follows. The air warms, and the world rejoices. A new breath comes over all things, and even the trembling leaves are attuned to the vernal rhythm. Turn your face to the sun, as flowers know how to do.
-365 Tao

I believe that none can "save" his fellow man by making a choice for him. To help him, he can indicate the possible alternatives, with sincerity and love, without being sentimental and without illusion. The knowledge and awareness of the freeing alternatives can reawaken in an individual all his hidden energies and put him on the path to choosing respect for "life" instead of for "death."
-Erich Fromm

You can't do anything about the length of your life, but you can do something about its width and depth.

Saturday

Waves are breaking in my mind
and the memories of your eyes
are chimes in my ears
ringing out sounds
that swim through my veins
my heart beats a rhythm
