The sun always leaves me for you
and the moon is full or it’s not
like a fool who believes
and then cuts her cloth
to suit the circumstances.  

The blue of the sky turns to grey
and that green, green, grass
pops up and then falls
into dormancy.

And that beautiful once-upon-a-time
never comes back again
and who can keep a summer
or a winter, spring, autumn,
when the intent of a spin
is to take everything?

Good morning!  The sun has returned
and the shining down is only love
trying every day to overcome
the “only what I see” syndrome
laid like a heavy blanket
o’er my soulful everything.

One more day, maybe one more day,
to know and to see
there is giving in the taking
and more to the land and sky
than colour therapy!

Good morning! Ooops! I have no idea what time of the day it is way where you live!

"there is giving in the taking"

Honey, you give ~ and I take every word in!

"and more to the land and sky
than colour therapy!"

Indeed, there is! Mind you, I am also into colour therapy!

  Linda, you are a honey!  It's actually afternoon here now which just goes to show that there are delays in life but we do eventually do what we aim to do.  Colour therapy - yes, it's good to use whatever we can to springboard ourselves into a better place or rather into a better manner of being.

I love your thoughts and imagery very much, dear Helen.

And when we are aware of the gifts we receive, it becomes indeed an act of gratitude, thus giving too.

Wise and beautiful!

Love,
