Wake up and smell the infinite opportunity (and the coffee, of course)!
Best Let shimmer soak into skin so fair and beauty walk within fields of rare Step lightly upon the wisps of wind enchanted by their hum of hymn And in those early moments of dawn slide slowly into choirs of song For in those emerging minutes blessed we’re graced with the chance to be our best

Are you proud of the path you've taken or filled with "could haves"??
Proud Is each life odyssey technicolour or black and white Steeped in myth and lore Is it better than what we write Is each life that passes forgotten or revered Imprints left upon our heart The salt within our tears Shouldn’t each small victory be placed upon a shelf and looked upon as blueprint; a...

A Ms and Mr. T collaboration - one line is mine, the next is his...
... but I won't tell you which one of us "kicked it off" Promise Another sun kissed morning marked primarily by the rhythmic beating of my heart With a half shuffle, half skip barefooted I head to the kitchen The coffee and cigarettes taste familiar The scent of last night’s love making lingers and...

For Bhaskar (written for him a while back and I trust he'll remember it...)
Attitude Run your hands gently along the spine of the day that lies ahead There is strength in the hours to be Taste the freedom and freshness of a new day born Breathe in the sweet, alluring air Be an artisan with infinite vision; mind sculpting each hour into a day of beauty and abundance Drench...

Photographer unknown Embrace the Day Roll up your velvet sleeves and fluff the plumes on your hat Saturate the day with sunlight Find vivacity within the freshness of the air Whistle a tune of temperance and sway with the notes of intent Radiate your feverish fire Seek benevolence from the eyes of...

We all want change but don't quite know how to go about it!

What time of day is it anyway???

The things I learn by just looking out my window!
Lace-Like From my window each curled and lace-like leaf glistens in the morning light A god-like shimmer slows down the speed of life into frame upon frame rather than holding down the fast forward button It becomes my classroom and I become the awe-struck student entranced by the vocabulary of the...

Care to join me in a game of truth or dare? And since it's my
