We're all heros of some kind - we just don't know it! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Strut Within the stillness; the internal hot springs of our quiet heroics Silent yet heartfelt acts of bravery lay simmering Boisterous marching bands await in the wings A parade of valour and human celebration hungers to fill the winding streets We hear the rise of anticipation and begin our foray...

“Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.”
A quote from Albert Einstein Sight Blindness matters not nor the rose coloured glasses we sometimes conveniently choose For the vision of man ~the heart and soul of every breathing being ~ comes not solely from the eyes but from the core Deep within boils the infinite capacity to enrich and be...

When' the last time you had a meeting of one - between you and you...?
The Meeting Committee of one taking a vote Establishing there is little or no value in self loathing Roberts Rules of Order cast aside Replaced not with chaos but with an inner monologue of sensitivity and carefully chosen accolades Kindness kissing the cheek of disesteem and misplaced pureness of...

I look out onto the Pacific Ocean. What body of water is closest to you?
Ocean Subjective evidence of the force of wordless movement Silent, sapient observers of our very own lives Each an embodiment of promise; a panoply of hope and reciprocity From the west or the east out over the ocean shores the sky is brilliant And the consistency of water’s mighty movement beckons...

There's a pay phone ringing. Do you answer it or walk on by? ~~~~~~~~
Stranger You’ve been there ~ Heard the mystery of a pay phone ringing on a busy city street lonely back road or in a dusty bus station An eager anticipation arises to pick up the receiver and not only witness but participate in the intersection of lives Should we revere or fear The uncertainly alone...

Do you know someone who gossips (or worse, are you guilty)? ~~~~
Gossip Trifling talk or empty prattle How annoying it can be Arousing stir with tasty tidbits Even a fool with eyes can see that gossip seeps into its crevasse and lingers like burning toast It’s those who choose to pass it on who hurt the innocent most

We’ve all know a perfectly painted, carefully coiffed woman. ~~~~~~
Trappings Powdered and curled Parading in white satin or vanity stained charmeuse Bedizened with a mosaic of beads and sequence Lipstick blazing as if to allure the world with a single kiss Does her stately elegance put her slightly above the fray Do her brown satin eyes and meticulously applied...

Please return your seat backs to the upright postion... ~~~~~~
Landing Abstract thought often the enervation of will of purpose of simmering sanctions Yet the mind wanders ~ it always does ~ The discipline of self-restraint is not automatic No autopilot available Steering into the winds of change, the unexpected gusts of uncertainty, and the mini hurricanes of...

We sold our house, we sold our house, we sold our house! (Did I mention
that we sold our house?) Anew Amidst the soft yet powerful thy weeping there beats a steady, rhythmic heart Your soft and shallow moans beseeching In a world awash with longings the provenance of our dreams traced back to truths we trust so implicitly So weep not, my love for shallow days are all...

A slightly new "look" today (for Ciel and I hope she likes it) ~~~~~~~~
Sit She sat on the old train trestle dangling her legs as though they no longer belonged to the rest of her body With a quick glance she admires her toes and become fully aware of the warm breeze tickling her feet Summer is food for senses ~ Silent and glamorous ~ A time of quite and surprising...
