    Tuesday, February 12, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    I am becoming all sentimental... bare with men....
    I Will Not Die an Unlived Life, Dawna Markova
    I will not die an unlived life 
    I will not live in fear 
    of falling or catching fire. 
    I choose to inhabit my days, 
    to allow my living to open me, 
    to make me less afraid, 
    more accessible, 
    to loosen my heart 
    until it becomes a wing, 
    a torch, a promise. 
    I cho...

  • Dream?

    Thursday, March 13, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    This was sent to me from my dear friend here on DS... MrsTDC 
    And I thought it was a positive message, so I wanted to share....  
    (((((((BIG GIGANTIC HUGS))))))) 
    Trouble arrives in measures,and we stack it up real high,
    until we're convinced,we have no reason to try.
    If you feel defeated, you're absolutely wrong,
    for if you follow your dream, you could never lose for long.

  • Still I Rise...

    Wednesday, April 23, 2008

    Still I Rise by Maya Angelou
    You may write me down in history
    With your bitter, twisted lies,
    You may trod me in the very dirt
    But still, like dust, I'll rise.
    Does my sassiness upset you?
    Why are you beset with gloom?
    'Cause I walk like I've got oil wells
    Pumping in my living room.
    Just like moons and like suns,
    With the certainty of tides,
    Just like hopes springing high,
    Still I'll rise.
    Did...

  • "The Hole"

    Tuesday, July 15, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story


    "The Hole"
    It is deep,
    it is sharp,
    it was a shattered
    piece of my heart!
    It's been there,
    it's tore apart,
    strewn about
    right from the start.
    Who knows why,
    Oh! does it show?
    Cuz it began
    so long ago.
    When it took
    it's first blow,
    that flung it about
    to and fro.
    It finally gave in,
    the pressure built up,
    the pain it did boil
    and it did erupt!
    It will move on,
    will be patched up.
    I know this now,
    ...

  • A Borrowed Poem "A Strong Woman..."

    Wednesday, August 13, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    A strong woman versus a woman of strength
    A strong woman works out every day
    to keep her body in shape
    but a woman of strength looks deep inside
    to keep her soul in shape
    A strong woman isn't afraid
    of anything
    but a woman of strength shows courage
    in the midst of her fear
    A strong woman won't let anyone
    get the best of her
    but a woman of strength gives the best
    of her to everyone
    A strong woman ...

  • ALONG THE WATER FRONT
    Waves smacking the rocks
    Gulls flying high above me
    Drift wood scattered fro
    Foam and weeds  blanket
    Salt the taste of breezy air
    Clouds float high above
    I walk slowly on
    Take the scene in as I go
    Along water's edge
    Boats away from shore
    Sails luffing as they change course
    Then take up the wind
    My dog besides me
    We walk further the beach
    The suns warmth on us
    At a bench we stop
    To r...

    It was very peaceful there.

    This garden had many lovley flowers, but I found this one especially interesting so I took it's pi...

  • I love to go to the zoo...

    Sunday, August 23, 2009

    One of the most enjoyable day trips I love to take is to grab my digital camera
    and go to the zoo.  These pictures I took over this past weekend at the
    Point Defiance Zoo.
    Imagine my surprise when I looked at the photo and saw what I
    snapped. I just love this picture.
    Another great picture that happened by accident. I love the expression
    of the girl looking at this moon jelly fish.
    The Octopus wa...
