feeling a little more upbeat ...
Like a mantra, the words of a good poem can carry us through adversity and challenge, supporting forward movement and inner growth. I am aware of my own cycles of turning to poems and writing them myself. When the going gets tough, I reach for a favorite book, my journal and a pen.

Lis, you are so brave! Love the t-shirt too. I feel like I no longer have the choice but to dive in lately. I am also feeling how much really is about choice. All this in a peri-menopausal spin. I am coming late in life to poetry but it's never too late, is it? Thanks for the references. The only thing that is constant is change, I am learning to embrace it and flow with it instead of meeting it kicking and screaming. Who knew I could be so ...well... me.
ReplyDeletewaiting on the other side of the waves... you are so beautiful... being able to begin again, as a flying rabbit or as an unsure woman who is doing it anyway... i send you great love my friend
ReplyDeleteOh yey Lis, I can see this turning into a little poetry project :) It is so lovely to see your beautiful face and hear that soulful voice. I am sorry things are tough at the moment - I am glad that you are a strong warrior at heart who is able to get up again as you say. Sending you so much love and I am so grateful for your very sweet mention about my blog.

You are amazing , wise, beautiful beyond words!Those waves will settle, recede, go still. The Ocean Mother, Yemaya, She Who Is, reminds you to lay back on the water and trust. This alleviates the getting-knocked-down & allows Her to carry you where you need to go. . .
ReplyDeleteThe poem is exactly what I needed to hear this late hour-
Sending you love, light, peace-
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti.
