So I stumble into
Not the admission but
The fascination I have with
You

Gathering to that moment
The distraction of words, silence on my lips
I reach out and touch you, but
Instead, letting the words unfold
Into greater peace and harmony

The Hellebores are back, coming to a neighborhood like yours!

In a thousand valleys, far and wide
Where the sun comes out and greets the sky
Her branches reach out to meet the day
Flowers are scented without even a try
Words cannot even begin to describe
The love that I have, for her
My beautiful Mother Earth

I made a threesome of a phone call after dinner tonight, It was with the other girls that I have gone on vacation with every year since college, except for 2020. I love my friends. I don't have a lot of free time to have those meaningful conversations that mean so much to us... so, I did it together, just like we might be having coffee or a glass of wine. I love my friends. Did I say that already? They are the words that create so many chapters in the story of my life, adding the beauty and making it hard to put down.

I must confess, I told my lovely friend sunscape@sunscape that I have never seen these kind of daffodils before. I was scrolling through my camera tonight, and what did I see? Yes... just like that. I saw them and never noticed.

I used these words on my friends tonight. All the loveliness in the world would never match the heart you both have. I am amazed at your capacity to do good works and be open with your heart and life. Of course, your friends would fill your life with love. It's only because they mirror you in some way or another. I really mean that and I hope they embraced it.

Love makes the world go round. Truly. ❤️

Their beauty whispers, in my world, even as they fade, wither and as a final point, fall back to the earth.

All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand. Oh, yes. Still by hand. It has a different feel. Altered not by keys, backspace, and delete, I write, erase, tear it to pieces and start all over again. And again.

It’s my way. I walk out to the deep end of the page and dive right in.

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
