Then Life would sweep me toward another direction
Days gathered themselves together
And they rained and rained all in a row
Magick came my way
made a home with me in my studio
and junk tried to slip in between
sometimes I noticed it right away
sometimes I didn't
Today, I shake it off like rain drops on a leaf
I lay back and look out my window
My friends, speak to me of our precious wild beauty
Write your wonderful inspiring authentic self into a pile of journals
leave it for those you love
so that they may know you again
after you are gone
allow them to experience YOU....
A~new
Make surprising and magickal packages for faraway friends
Do something 'good' for our economy
use the post office!
let us send snail mail love to one another
Gather the harvest that exists all around you
for even a small harvest is still A HARVEST! :)
Turn the world up-side down
Light lanterns of all kinds to help you find your way
don't kid yourself
be prepared
for there will be darkness of all kinds too
many times, in places you never knew to be dark before
Do something 'dangerous'
Declare something
then dare to paint it on your wall - free~hand!
Live on the 'edge'
Don't be afraid to be arrested by "The Wall Police"
Go to jail for what you believe!
(God, please keep us out of jail :)
If you don't know yet,
FIND OUT how to comfort your wonderfully amazing awesome self.
Learn what gives your tender child-like heart wings
When you feel unloved and unheard
go to your art
it will never leave you nor forsake you
Always remember what your true loves are
for me
it's sketching with mechanical pencils
and writing poetry:
my home
my sanctuary
where my heart can
nestle up
cozy down
sink in
and float away
Make that house for your tender heart to rest in
Create that home in a miniature form and then expand it outward!
Decorate it the way you like
Draw stars on the walls!
And make nests of beautiful scraps!
Say YES
Be Blessed
and know,
that YOU are on my mind.
ps: Oh, and love your female friends!
