happiness

a droplet of happiness
happiness is a second in the infinity 
it goes away with a blink of an eye
happiness is here and now
it’s a wish in yellow
a droplet in the eternity 
happiness is never and forever

Joining Reena’s Xploration Challenge. Reena asked us to watch the video below and write our feelings about it: “stream of consciousness’ writing”. Hope you enjoy my take on it!

magical notebook

you found me

in the middle of a cornfield

a bookstore

where else could I be?

you hypnotized me

with the magical red and golden pattern

i couldn’t see or hear anything

except for your magnetism

you guided me close to you

in a trance state, I grabbed you

caressing your pages

the words formed spells in my mind

Reena’s Xploration challenge this week is to choose at least 2 words of the word cloudy below and be creative. I’ve chosen Hypnosis and Trance.

I bought this notebook a few weeks back during a trip to USA middle-west. It’s a beautiful place with lots of cornfields and wonderful bookstores. I couldn’t resist when I saw this notebook, I had to buy it! It was indeed a magical moment.

What do you see – Is it possible

Is it possible to explain love
To someone who never loved before
Using pen as a tool
Is it possible ordinary words
Describe how profound and infinite
Love is
To the fools that never loved before
Words and love 
there is no place
In their hearts
A flame is powerful 
A way to erase the abstract feeling
Only known to who truly feels it
Is it possible …

Sunday musings – yellow and orange

These last two weeks have been hectic. Many deadlines at work and weekend travel with the kids. I didn’t have time to have my precious ‘me time’ and to join the writing/poetry challenges, that I love, here.

Another snowstorm was on the way for the weekend, so I went grocery shopping on Friday evening and I found these gorgeous tulips, yellow and orange, at the grocery store. Of course, I had to get them.

I still have my Valentine’s roses, yellow ones, drying out. I dried red roses many years ago, they turned out great and are decorating my living room. These yellow ones are also drying beautifully. Not all the roses dry the way I like, so it’s great when they do and I can preserve them.

Today the clocks went ahead one hour. I’m taking this morning slowly, not hurrying to catch up with the lost hour.

I made pancakes for breakfast to enjoy with a strong black coffee. I got my orange mug last weekend while travelling to the USA middle-west. I drove all the way from Canada, a long drive, however pleasant, I love a road trip.

Yellow and orange are calling for me. I need to search for their meanings, I know yellow is happiness, and warm, but not sure about orange.

Wishing a wonderful day to you!

lightness of being

Reena’s image
in between colours and dreams
she carries the weight of her ancestors 
in her veins and heart
victories and achievements
pain and submission
laugh by the bonfire and paint on her skin
the shine in the eyes and wrinkles of wisdom
her face doesn’t betray the lightness of her being

March is here

Looking forward for a new month full of inspiration and colours. My tiny journal is getting chubby, not much as I expected, February was a slow journaling month, hoping to catch up in March.

Today I woke up with a feeling of excitement, spring is coming but at the same time a feeling of missed opportunities: Did I learn all of the lessons from winter? Did I enjoy all its coziness? Did I dive inwards and really connected to myself? …My questions started with DID, it’s the past, now let me look ahead, to all the new possibilities of growth and blooming.

And you? How are you feeling about the change of the seasons?

Wishing you a flourishing new month, Spring or Autumn, both bring colours to the Earth.

In March winter is holding back and Spring is pulling forward.
Something holds and something pulls inside of us too.
