Rainbow Bubbles

Rainbow Bubbles

 

Loneliness strikes

it seems

out of the valley

of nowhere

as do

glistening rainbow bubbles

float by

Trapped

Trapped

I wondered how it was

That I struggled in this world

In this rigid box

 

that had become the pattern

 

of my life

And then I noticed that

The space that had been given me

 

was too small

For who I would become

For who I was

Change

Change



Time flies
Things change
Moving on
What next
What now

Something new
Something old
Something different
Bold

Change stops
staying still

I took a risk

I took a risk

 

I took a risk

And followed a path

I've never been before

My journey leads me to a quiet place

I see things

never seen before

Hear things

never heard before

Feel things

never felt before

Smell things

never smelt before

Not like this

Oh what joy

To follow a path

never been before.

Creative woman
Sensual woman
Sexual woman
Female body
Naked in vulnerability
Vulnerable in nakedness
Surrender
Release
Pleasure
Joy in me
Present
Presence
Wholeness
Wholeness in me
Fully me
Free

Exploring Dementia

 

When I open the door of the room of dementia

When I open the door of the room of dementia...

My felt sense sees beyond what I see,

I feel the mixture of differences

the sound of laughter

echoing of distant times and now.

I smell the fear of unknown futures,

of  loss and change of who I might become.

I am filled with excitement

of the sense of hope,

of what can be,

if only others were open enough

to see,

to hear,

to smell,

to feel,

to touch,

to connect.

Ebb and Flow

Ebb and Flow


It is a while since I last visited here...
will you wait for me,
while my creativity ebbs and flows,
as life's cruel edges
block the sunshine of my soul,
will you trust that one day I will return?
