Poetic thoughts from a tv show to remain nameless…
Category: Writing and Poetry
They say art imitates life. Sometimes what I watch feeds me. Sometimes it sympathizes like friends. Sometimes it acts like a mirror or photograph. Great art speaks.

Pull me out and remind me who I am
You know you have always held my heart
Let’s hear stories about [...]

Artistic temperament sometimes seems a battleground, a dark angel of destruction and a bright angel of creativity wrestling. ~Madeleine L’Engle
I often underestimate the internal battle ground in me as a creative person. It is overwhelming some times how volitile the emotional roller coaster can be when you are suppose to be open and in touch [...]

I didn’t write this but I am in awe of it. Thought it wise to share.
Words
Be careful of words,even the miraculous ones.For the miraculous ones we do our best,sometimes they swarm like insectsand leave not a sting but a kiss.They can be good as fingers.They can be trusty as the rockyou stick your bottom on.But [...]

“Some days, doing ‘the best we can’ may still fall short of what we would like to be able to do. But life isn’t perfect — on any front — and doing what we can with what we have is the most we [...]

“Where did Pollyanna go?”
She asked me.
“Not always a laugh a minute it seems.”
I smiled slowly, sadly
And shrugged a shoulder
And I watched her and replied,
“Where’s your big dreams?
Seems to me we’re both a little jaded.
Seems to me we’re neither one that tough.”
Cynically she laughed and she nodded adding,
“But whoever would have guessed
It could be so rough.”
Just [...]

Simple and plain
I keep hearing just tell the story
Keep it simple, make it plain
Don’t add ruffles, don’t add any laces
Just a stripped down model, Plain Jane
Show, don’t tell and certainly don’t preach
They have a right to think; no highfalutin speech
Let them choose for themselves
You don’t need to embellish
There’s no need to make it [...]

Acid Rain
Current mood: artistic

You say things I know are meant just to hurt me
You’re hurting and want to watch someone else bleed
It’s sort of like watching someone else’s wreck on a high way
There’s a macabre strain in you and you feel the need
To lash, and strike, to bite, [...]

A funny thing happened on the way to clean the….

Nana was coming, so full of delight
The children were rushing to help with the night’s
Grand preparations and rigmarole
All was well til I flushed the toilet bowl
It was quite blue and foamy somewhat like the east coast
I’m still cleaning bubbles [...]

Trust
Current mood: thoughtful
Category: Religion and Philosophy
I received an email this A.M. that I found fascinating and gave me cause to pause and wonder to ponder so I am passing on the question. I was asked:
Who do you trust more?
Your
Doctor?
Pharmacist?
Hair Dresser
Attorney?
Maid?
Friend?
OR
Mother-In-Law?
(trusting “myself” is not a choice)

But That’s What I Hear
You call me first instead of waiting
For me to reach out to you
You never think much about it
But I do.
You act as if I know things
As if I have a contribution to your world
even in the little things
You don’t do it to remind me of my value
But [...]
