Small flight of fancy- a poem sketch inspired by the goddess in the above photo...
Ladies, don't give up your power...
Don't hand it over for fleeting joys and temporary hours
You were born with the gift, don't lay it in sacrifice on the alter
In the name of love,
Don't offer to trade what is beyond price for a false happy-ever-after,
don't ensnare it's song like a caged dove,
Stop feeding into the porcelain promises of those who would capture your heart for selfish reasons...
Transparent lovers that steal your prize, then transit and depart in the changing seasons
Remain strong and steadfast, guard diligently your dreams and always to that loving heart stay true,
Remember, the power always and forever resides within YOU!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! My best critic :)
DeleteWow my amazing, brilliant daughter, this was beautiful in 2016 but it is even more beautiful in 2021!! In this world, you live, you love, you learn. I've always heard that love is lovelier the second time around .... with both feet on the ground. I had the chance and am oh so sorry I didn't take it so I can't speak from experience; however, you were always a little bit smarter than me. Here's to second times!
ReplyDeleteThank you for that beautiful feedback. Life knocks us down sometimes, but getting up we can re-engage with it in a bigger and better way. The future is unwritten...but its bright!
DeleteJamie you need to resurrect this blog. It is a joy and so needed by many! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you for reminding me! I got swamped for a bit with life, but ready to resurrect this page and bring more joy into the memories! :)
