Connecting

If her writing style was jejune, so was her lifestyle. Yet, she connected incredibly well with her readers. We relate to familiar stuff. It’s not always about a phantasmagorical world.

I am blessed
I am blissed
to feel it still
in me
in you
in droplets of air
in …everywhere
no reasons at all
no sounds to speak
no skin to wear
no secret to bare
when
all of now
all of me
is in this one moment of you

spring party

Spring party ….by Elizabeth

Elizabeth's avatarTea & Paper

on my way yesterday – a rainy day

in that one moment 
when snow turns into rain
the trees smile
Nature gets ready for the Spring party
flowers, birds songs, lots of sunshine
i feel lightness in the air

after the harsh winter
rain feeds the soil and the roots
Earth fragrance is wonderful
the sun wakes up earlier and goes to sleep later
bicycles and skates are everywhere
garden preparations must start
flowers and vegetable beds

it’s time for renewing
both soul and body
in that one moment
when snow turns into rain
thank you, Nature, for the opportunity
to start over and enjoy your gifts

Conspiracy Theories

Conspiracy theories range from attention-seeking behaviour to sinister motives of gaining power by misleading. The difference between facts and opinions gets more blurred every day, as social media oplatforms have maniacs proclaiming they are the ultimate in truthfulness. What perplexes me even more are the followers willing to believe them. At the simplest, it is … Continue reading Conspiracy Theories

Change- It just took a moment

Change – it just took a moment —- by Sadje

Sadje/ Sadie's avatarKeep it alive

in that one moment

➰➰➰

What is a moment?

A spec of time, of no importance

But it has the power to change a life

It can be a moment of great discovery

Something that would open your eyes

Sudden realization hitting you like a gale-force wind

Shaking your foundations to the core of your being

Mine was one such event that showed to me

That together with my family I can be the

Strongest shield against the world if need be

Protecting, giving sanctuary in time of distress

Standing firm for one of us when they are weakened

I never knew I had the strength till I was tested

Adversity made me and motherhood stronger

Like a lioness I am ready to protect my children

➰➰➰

I didn’t share any specific details for they aren’t mine to divulge but suffice to say that when a member of my family…

In That Moment

In that moment ….Read on

Damien de Soto's avatarHerder of Swine

I missed the train back from the city.

One beer and a bag of Raisinets, bought for lunch and dinner,

Causing me be to be late, because

One beer was never enough

So I bought another tall boy

Prophetic in its prediction of what was to draw

Me away from the home I was already late to return to

And the arms that I would go to instead, screaming

“I am a woman in trouble, I am no heroine. I can’t save myself,”…

Wanting for a hero,

I manufactured a situation by accident

That was perfect for a wanted rescue.

A victim of time, more than man,

I remember in that moment, running to make my train,

5:35

But, I thought

No I didn’t… didn’t think..

Just did… Just sat.. so far away from the home that was crying for me,

While I was crying quite…
