PENSERIO DEL SPIRITO ~

    'SOLITUDE'         Candlelight a lovely sight On my table and placed just right Even in the bright day's light Another year soon out of sight     Who can say where the time goes Passing rapidly as a river flows Time to stop & smell the rose  Breathe in deeply & think clearly Of all the friends whom we hold so dearly Day dream of thoughts serene Dream on and realize your dream Feel great ~ Meditate ~ Visualize Close your eyes Branches dripping in crystalline dew drops  Sweet pom' martinis for you and me Day dream thoughts bring on such glee Time alone ~ I feel so free to be just me   A new year is upon us again, my friend It has a been hectic holiday season      So surely so and with good reason Four days worth of festivities & fun For each of us ~ for everyone Snowflakes take the place of sun    Young wee ones that I adore ~  March in circles upon the floor Folk tunes, fun & food ga

The arts are not a way of making a living! TRUE.  They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art (no matter how well or badly) is a way to make your soul grow, so sing in the shower... dance to the radio... tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem.    Kurt Vonnegut PAINT ~ SING ~  DANCE ~  WRITE ~ TELL A STORY Live your own creative life ~  give it your best shot! I was told 'I think in the abstract' ~   And it was part of the results of an on line personality test.  I am very 'right brained'. An artist, designer and writer... that's what I am!    Thanks for stopping by! Di'             

Aziz Eagles’ wings on earth have changed to Angels’ wings Above  You're swept swiftly through Heaven’s Golden Gates with Love Silver Rays gleamed bright through grey blue clouds  And the Sun still shined It is another place, and yes It is another time So far above our skies and a Misty March Moon  Angels are singing a glorious tune You are there so soon Aziz Earthly cares have ceased  Your Body and Soul are now at Peace   Dear Aziz   Written by your first daughter-in-law, With Love, Diane
