The limb

broken by the storm

has

Small green stars

Blooming from the torn bark .

There is no need to fight ….

Tug for play not war,

We all measure up in the eyes of Love!

Time to get out of the water

Posted on June 15, 2018 by eteal

The sky was blue

And filled with birds,.

The water was clear,

And filled with people…

The wind blew,

Clouds rolled in.

And the birds?

Where did they go?

Was an all American bambino!

Little reminders of beginners mind are everywhere!

Sturdy Fun

Posted on June 12, 2018 by eteal

The rain had stopped,

The class had started.

And there, wagging and sturdy,

short legged, curly hair, chubby

And willing

She began to learn the basics of a sport

Some might think was designed for others more lithe than She.

Sport

Is another word for fun!

Don’t forget to play,

EVERY DAY.

Cat pause

Posted on June 12, 2018 by eteal

I reach for the paper,

I pick up the brush, dip it in ink…

And there You are…

Purring and playing.

And I can think of nothing else.

It is late.

I start to meditate

suddenly my lap is filled with love!

Goo

Posted on June 10, 2018 by eteal

All day today the garden was filled with encouragement.

No one really talks to you

about

the time in between caterpillar and butterfly …

Cocooned.

Sounds nice, safe, even cozy.

In reality,

You are goo.

And that is ok.

Patience.

You will fly.

Shells

Posted on June 8, 2018 by eteal

The Newly Bright Green whispers to me on gossamer wings –

Leaving behind what she no longer needed.

All that remained was a shell on the lintel,

Leaving us to ponder the mysteries of transformation.
