My Papa

TRIBUTE TO MY PAPA

He never quit believing…and he acted on what he believed.

Gift of Rain🌟

Roaring of thunder making itself known

Bringing all of nature to life

dogs uncertain of its' sound and frightened 

unaware of the beauty that follows thunder..

Overcast skies playing hide'n'seek with the sun

Happy chirping birds coming out to play enjoying what their world offers..

Carefree eating and flitting about..

Much to learn watching a bird..

Thunder rolls through space again

And ever so gently 

Big rain drops fall from the skies to a very hungry earth..

Summer storms 

Unexpected moments 

So beautiful and full of life🌟

Bend with Me

With you without you 

Here yet gone 

I get it

I see it

I feel it 

I know it

Everything is nothing now 

It's empty lonely scary confusing 

I'm lost 

Feeling the chill through to my bones

Missing the smile 

the laughs &

gentle touches 

The peaceful silence

Sharing space 

Sweetest times I've known 

Small things that make it so special 

Where did it all go..

Trying to explain it to myself

Make sense of it

But it is all in vain..

the perfect that was going to last a lifetime 

gone in a moment..

Didn't know I could be so broken 

Funny how you still take my breath away..

Memories 

So alive So real 

I'll stay

I'll fight 

I'll push&pull 

I'll bend your way

Making new stories

Our stories

Make my heart soar ❤️

All Sparkly.. Who Me?

Picture perfect life they say 

So lucky so easy so carefree

How they wish to be her..

walk in her shoes and see

How it all just falls into place..

Gazing around She wonders who they speak of..

Eyes words attention all centered on her..

The kind naive words bring smiles to her face until it spills out into laughter as she shakes her head no fervently back and forth..

Wishing them to know truths 

It's absurd

Don't they know nothing is easy 

Nothing just happens 

One must be brave 

It is work 

A lot of work 

It is hard exhausting and wonderful work fighting for all she has..

Her actions make the choice 

She chooses to live each moment 

Though life is chaotic and a beautiful mess 

And she teeters on the edge -often finding that balance overwhelming 

she would never quit 

Give up 

Give in

Never gives that a thought..

Why she wonders?

she senses It is the struggle that gives her life meaning passion love happy sad worth-it-all moments..

As Her laughter subsides 

she gets lost in these thoughts.. 

Grateful for all she's lived 

Her face lights up 

Laughter spilling out again

knowing she is

Happy to walk in her shoes..

Choose You❤️

It is so wonderful

It has to be perfect 

Sweetest thing she's ever known

Wanting to know more 

Curiosity growing 

Needing to know more

Making her crazy 

What is she looking for..

Bits&pieces of you 

So alive 

She remembers 

That feeling of love - she can't let go..

She can be all you want 

All you need 

Sweetest dream you'll ever know

Stay long enough 

You won't let go..

In the Quiet

She wishes many things for you

Her love will always want to see all things good for him

She wants it all

Willing to take the chance 

Sometimes it seems so impossible 

Such a sweet beautiful dream they are

still can't believe their worlds collided 

can't believe how fast 

How hard and how completely deeply She has fallen for him..

In the quiet 

The silence 

Her thoughts can be loud at times and She can't stop the tears 

wondering and wondering

smiling & giggling too..

A vast mix of wonderful scary emotions - 

She Doesn't  know why about anything but 

She certainly is beyond words happy She ran into him in life again 

All intertwined and meshed together 

No longer sure where it starts or where it ends..

Irrational

Moments of pure happiness&joy

Found Living in the moment..

Like a switch 

Moments of total fear&despair

As she slowly fades away..

All Gone in an instant 

Heartbreaking to wake up..

Harder still 

realizing it's only the beginning of the end 

Is she shutting down?

Is it real?

Not sure..

Is she all gone&forgotten

No memories?

As if it never was 

No..

Sweet Glimpses remain..

Nothing is lost forever 

Even as it decays 

Falling apart 

The fascination to keep her alive grows stronger 

pushing her forward

Irrational Hope is awakened 

living on in her 

She fights fiercely 

never to let the dark eclipse her light..
