Morning light…

All you can do is try…

“There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle, or the mirror that reflects it.” Edith Wharton  Easy to say it, hard to truly do it with no expectations or agenda. 

Forever…

“There are memories that time does not erase… Forever does not make loss forgettable, only bearable.” Cassandra Clare, City of Heavenly Fire

Beauty…

taking for granted….

taking for granted

details in life before us

stop and look closely

loving friends….

“Dear Lord,
Give me a few friends who will love me for what I am,
and keep ever burning before my vagrant steps
the kindly light of hope…
And though I come not within sight of the castle of my dreams,
teach me to be thankful for life, and for time’s olden memories
that are good and sweet.
And may the evening’s twilight find me gentle still.”

fragrant…

your scent intoxicates
closing my eyes, I inhale bliss
delicate petals

Beauty Beheld…..

“Although beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, the feeling of being beautiful exists solely in the mind of the beheld.” Martha Beck
