Passion

and some say that passion is gone, that there is the "quick fling between two" simply lust, then on to the next, passion deepens your relation with your mate, you bare your sole when you open yourself to your lover you make yourself vulnerable and you give yourselves trusting one another, the words the pictures the art this is all passion and i say passion still burns as a fire in the heart of man and woman passion waiting to spring forth as a blossuming flower, the passion for life for love for true friendships, these will carry us on when lust has died, passion needs to be freed from the lust so often confused for passion, freed in us all that we may truely grow and not be lost in lust that seems to surround us in the world today..

Ghost

been a head turning day, for the giants they did attack from all sides at times and so often it would seem they were about to over through the realm, but we battled them back and there is finally calm, just as it should be at the end of a long day, calm, and music time awaits, time with band and friends for the evening.. makes for a very pleasant ending on a long day. ahh, to dream, to lean back with your lover at your side under a night sky, beside a brook as the water would cascade across the rocks, the soft gurgling sound it makes that soothes the weary head, that gentle breeze that teases your body as you lay together watching the stars from their little points of lights, the talk is soft and gentle, and of the days adventures now past, and of the morning to come, and yet still laying here comforted under the stars with that sounds of night slowly claiming your as their own, the call of a night bird seeking their mate, hands clasped together as the occasional cloud does drift through the night sky above, tis blissful to be here with you my love, and yet it is only a ghost, a ghost from a long ago past, still the memories will ever reside in my head of nights we spent sharing thoughts and dreams, so now i share these thoughts and dreams with friends of this new realm, and what once a sweet dream between two, i know share with all of you, the dream of peace and rest at the end of each day, and days filled with adventure and battle that thrills the heart with joy and arms with strength, for here i do reside in the sweetest of realms, that of friends all around and to them i give my thanks and love

Jewel of Friendship

how long do we do the same each day, rise and shine eat and work, so often the same faces, the same chair, the same cat waiting to be fed, the hands of the clock ticking by one by one and we search for the next new thing to fill our lives, to pour joy into a seemingly bottomless pit, always searching yet rarely finding, most times it waits right in front of our eyes, but we fail to recognize that one thing that would make us complete, and so we go on and on, but i have found something that is so precious and keep my heart so full of joy and hope, that lifts me farther then any drug or drink, that gives me peace when i lay my head down at night and sleep, the precious jewel of friendship, the dear comments you leave, the pictures of your adventures abroad, and even at times when you do shed a tear that i might hold you for a moment and tell you your loved more then you know, just open your hearts and enjoy, for each night i do enjoy you all and thank you for letting me share even just a little in your life's your all very precious and dear

A Smile so Simple

You know, sometimes it's the little thing in life that matter more then the big, but we forget, so often looking for the "perfect" score, when at times a nod, a smile a friendly greeting is enough to tip someone day into something special, just saying thank you should be a ready word upon our lips, and the smile you give should come from your eyes not just your mouth. I remember many of my college days, i loved to walk then, still do today, but without warning a passer by would just smile, to me it said, "you do exist" and that just warmed my heart!! we walk by without saying a word to any one, rolling up our car windows against the chill or heat, glancing at others but yet not really seeing them, at least this is the way in the city, when i was in the country seem you couldn't hardly pass a car without them tossing you a friendly gesture, even if they didn't know you from adam. so this weekend, practice that smile, that hello that hey how are you, cause you never know when you will make a huge difference in someones life.. and thank you, thank you so much for enjoying these simple words i try to write each day, you all are all truly a blessing to me - <3

Friday Battles!

Good morning all!! those that be awake at least :) those that be in their afternoons already, what a great day to hunt that ever elusive beast, that might try to steal our smiles, off with their head i saw, smiles, cause someplace in this realm this world, someone is think about you and they are smiling cause they call you friend.

How We Fly

was walking earlier crossing streets, busy cars lights, people rushing to get where ever, I had spent the morning chasing my ships and finally taking a moment to find some nourishment, but i thought how nice to get away from all this RUSH! not just a vacation, but a time among the mountains, or on the oceans, a few close friends, the occasional drifting passer by that you can exchange current news with, for even the bible says it is not good for man to dwell alone, we spend so much of our time going, doing, not enough just reflecting, not enough just enjoying the friendships, we have to make that next mark that next goal, but are these the real goals in life? to have to hold to get to fulfill is wealth really a good goal? we hear that money doesn't buy happiness yet we presue it so diligently every day, only to realize how empty that want is, I had/have a friend that insist she could be happy in just a shack on the beach and i think they would be, (side note, she would still insist and keeps her little red car though :) ) but the idea of just letting it all go, do we really need to struggle so? but having done this so long how to let go? and of course there is always the food issue, and with winter coming on the warmth issue.. still, there is a longing in me for a simpler way. Now with politics, rat racing, gotta haves being  shoved down our throats every day, how do we decide what way to turn, which is the road that will actually gives us that longing fulfulled, not money, not a spectacular house, a vacation that only leaves wanting to have a vacation afterwards cause the vacation was to hard! Sighs, do we all long for something simpler or is it just me? i do have many dreams, to sail to fly, to build, yet i spend far to much time doing, making, getting, cause that's what i was raised to do, but some how someplace i will leave this race and say it is enough. time to let go and do what is in me to be done because "that is what i want to do" to survive, no more this "what i have to do" to survive. just some thoughts as i was walking across the street watching the cars fly by

End of Days

A full and busy day this has been, but now can rest, looking back and satisfied that I have been i have done and now my day is fulfilled, now i can rest, the evening awaits a time of relaxing and being ready for the morrow. But today was also a day of reflection, of fallen comrades, all having fought a brave fight and yet they/we all succumb to that final fate that awaits us.  Do we live hiding from that day? if we knew it was coming what would we do different? someone that you need to see, hold? someplace you wanted to go but put off?  what all gets put off cause we think i have plenty of time.  or do we embrace everyday as if this is the last, to live to love to enjoy the beauty that surrounds us, to smile through when life seems to throw us a curve and we feel the pain that also come with life.  Look to find joy in the beauty that surrounds us, the stars the sky the cool waters that refresh us giving us life, we are together to lift fellow warriors and warriorettes as we walk side by side, arm in arm, shoulder to shoulder.  This life this way we have been given, is to short to live in anger and bitterness, let go those things that will only hold you down, look to your friends your family, we are here to lift to fight by your side should you need us.  aye, we be all fellows creatures that walk and one day perhaps we will walk among those stars we gaze upon with such longing, we will fly with those might dragons of old, we will battle darkness as it tries to take from us our joy, make your hearts merry for when there is life there is hope, love and joy
