I feel like writing the most beautiful and intense poetry...
Volumes, tomes, series of beautiful heart-wrenching words that will move me...
That will move you.
I sense this could be good for my soul if I could just let loose... a downpour of emotions.
As I gather all the ingredients I take stock and so we have...
Cups full of nostalgia...
Pounds of inadequacy...
A clunker that reminds me of humility...
And the sense to be understood.
Certain of who I am as I type these words but so different since last Monday...
Monday was high and full of promise until Tuesday came around to show me otherwise.
By the twilight of Saturday I wanted to hide. Left with nowhere to hide Sunday came around...
Sunday showed her face bearing gifts from my island.
The colors and smells that are Oh so familiar and make me feel complex indeed, dark and so rich.
And I shed a tear for him...
And I shed another for her...
And I shed one for me and the girl I left behind...
I shed one for my friend because she is so beautiful and kind...
I am she who slays dragons and monsters in constant search for sweetness...
I am she who colors her glasses pink and wishes to share them with you...
She who wishes to drink caramel apple martinis on the clouds.
Today this is who I am... tomorrow I might not be.
This is the week to be thankful to be surrounded by plenty and I wish nothing more than a bountiful harvest to each one of you.
Be grateful, Be kind and Stay Sweet Peeps!
