It’s amazing to me how at times the simplest moment can lead to inspiration, insight or deep introspection. Possibly it’s only certain minds. The minds of deep thinkers, daydreamers, poets, lovers, and the ones who live with one foot in a world of imagination. Who knows? I love the curious mind, the one unafraid to fall down the rabbit hole and allow whatever possibility dances there at the edge to come out and play.
Waiting in line, inside my warm car, the rain soaked world seems small today. Like the tiniest of drops on my window holds more promise than my heart.
That drop, like so many before it, nourishing the hedgerow I look upon. A stoic row of beauty, dressing up in the early hints of spring. Flowers of purple so excited, they blossom before the leaves are barely green.
To the left, on the end, is where my eye falls. The beauty-no-longer, the green that’s let the long sleep of winter forever take it’s being into slumber.
It too is blanketed in the mist of rain. Yet the hardened, brown branches hold their drops like billions of stars twinkling in the grey morning. No more life will be soaked into these roots.
My soul shivers, my eyes fill with tears of sadness as I see it’s companion. The two are as one, completely entertwined. Connected forever simply by where life has planted them.
I weep as the yellowness seeps into the life touched by death and the thought of those sweet flowers down the hedge that bloom today with no idea of what tomorrow is bringing.
On my walks, especially this one on a day after a huge rainstorm, I often pause and let nature speak to me. Listen… Can you hear her calling your heart?
Successful entrepreneur, mother of two, lover of Self, maker of magick!
Spiritually raw and vulnerable. I've traveled the world, well parts, with much more to see. Mined the deepest depths of grief, the field of infinite possibilities and sometimes visit that thin veil beyond space and time.
A lover of love with no lover, an always hopeful heart and loads of great stories to share on the path to --the one--. A writer of poetry, inspiration and whatever else sparks the imagination to guide us both to living whole-heartedly.
Follow me down the rabbit hole, let's drink the intoxicating elixir of life, discover our true selves, our passions, desires and most of all, THE MAGICK! The magick inside that is uniquely you, uniquely me. The juicy mojo-magick that takes us from living ordinary and opens us to the extraordinary!
