Reality stokes a fire
of warm burning colors
that fade with the sun
as it sets in time
to the beating of my heart
like a clock’s second hand
it roves around
and comes back again
a new day
a new chance
a new way
I am blessed
with the power of choice
I know my soul is
refreshed every time
I react in an authentic way
to an idea that creation
placed in my heart
Blessitude…
Solitude…
my beautiful…
Attitude!

Lovely, Lorrie 🙂
Thank you my friend, Richard…so happy for your support. Have a super weekend!!
You too 🙂
love your opening lines!
Thank you so much!! My poems always ‘arrive’ like a neon sign behind my eyes…when I saw these words I loved them immediately, also. Have a wonderful weekend!
You too!
Always grateful for a new day to do and be better. Beautifully written.
Ah! Marlene…how are you my friend? Thank you so much for your words. Every day is a ‘New Day’…for whatever we wish to accomplish. (I know your list is long long long!!! 😉 )
Blessings, friend <3
Long lists, long life. If I have plenty that needs doing, I don’t have time to give up. Doing well enough. Hope you are doing better too.
Thanks, Marlene. I am doing SO well. Lots of changes…but that is part of life. The key is to recognize that it is not ‘good’ or ‘bad’…it just IS! Much love! <3
Ah, so you’ve caught on. Not many do. It’s a great place to stand. Hugs.

“Blessitude…Solitude… my beautiful… Attitude!”
Nice! 🙂
Thanks!!! and welcome 😉 Hope your weekend is filled with many wonderful moments!
Beautiful photo and words. May we be refreshed each day by empowering choices. Hugs my friend!
Thanks, Brad! I love this energy you brought here today 🙂 Wishing you a weekend filled with love…and I have a feeling that you make a connection in understanding this weekend that will be very grounding…centering! <3
OK, now I understand your other comment! I’m just catching up in between the film fest. I will be open and present to new understandings and opportunities. Yay! 🙂
Haha…I had a feeling you would read them in that order!! 😉
backwards! 🙂

A most beautiful attitude indeed. It is both sparkling and radiant and truly genuinely you. Enjoy your weekend with fun and laughter. Much love, Harlon
Thanks for the giant smile 🙂 dear Harlon!! Yes…it will be a busy weekend but I will take moments to be fully aware and present!! Hope that the weekend smiles on you!! <3
This is truly amazing! I love it!
There is something of synchrony, of melodious harmony, of sympathetic resonances within your words here today Lorrie; as if you and nature – if that is not too mundane a word – had taken to wandering off together, hand-in-hand, to explore each other in a gentle and peaceful communion, just as yourselves, just as you are. Hariod <3
Hariod!!!
I hope I will be able to tell you how you moved my soul with your words!! (Which are quite poetic by the way 😉 )
You peeked into my private world and what you saw is exactly what has been transpiring!!! You captured this moment in time…in such incredible truth to honor what it was…what it is!!
Thank you my friend. I feel a little naked and though that causes a bit of vulnerability, I am honored! Honored to show you…honored to be seen!
I wish you this feeling of connectedness for the upcoming weekend, Hariod. Much love <3
nice poem

You’re more than welcome. I appreciate you too, my friend.

Dear Lorrie,
I thought this was such a beautiful line, or series of lines:
I know my soul is
refreshed every time
I react in an authentic way
to an idea that creation
placed in my heart
It reminded me of what A Course of Love suggests about creating anew, which is that we simply respond with love to what has been given. We respond, in other words, authentically… And I love the feeling and the image of ideas placed in the heart. Yes… we are that…
Peace
Michael
Ah! Yes! Deep breath in…hold for 4 seconds…slow exhale…ahhhhh! Your response is so peaceful…so wonderful. Yes, ‘we respond with love to what is given!’ It is exactly what I have been feeling and what inspired this poem…beautiful Michael! Hope all is going well and you are embraced in love!! ♡
so beautiful my friend 🙂
Oh…Neha…Thank you so much! I appreciate you my friend ♡
