It was the…Poppies

It was the Poppies

“You see sir

I wasn’t looking

for a wizard.

I don’t believe!!!

I was following

the wildflowers…

Sweet Poppies

They caught my eye

Me being shy

I followed this road

I was looking for

something real

The way he threw his voice

double entendre like

you how I like to laugh

I got a little off, but now I see

This road I have been traveling

Has made me believe

I already knew the truth

inside me, I’m funny that way.”

Today is a beautiful day to be a wildflower

Today is the beautiful day to be a wildflower
It’s the only life she’s known
Growing outside fences
Swaying in the breeze
In the field with all her wildflower friends
Wildflowers are free that way

Friends and time

quote from my friend

Someone sent this to me this morning after thanking me for making time for them. I always make time for my friends. I have noticed though sometimes it’s not reciprocal with some that show up and I’m okay with that it’s just that maybe I won’t be free next time either. Life’s too short to wait around on someone to have time to talk to you. Just sayin’…I had this ah…ha moment today. I was just talking to my daughter about this the other day. I know these things, but sometimes it’s nice to be reminded.

Turquoise Rose

Her name was Turquoise Rose
I watched as she danced to Spanish Eyes
her eyes so blue they could melt paint…
I know because they melted my heart
and turned it upside down
I’ve never been the same

I never want to,” He said. 

Crazy Sue and Gypsy Daisy

Crazy Sue & Gypsy Daisy
became good friends
and sometimes maybe
they sit & talk about
nothing at all

Said Crazy Sue to Gypsy Daisy,
“Did you know there’s a Gypsy song?”
Gypsy Daisy laughed and said
“Ya, but why don’t you play it for me.”

Crazy Sue closed her eyes
tears did flow
she sang of wrongs
stars & even so
they all tried to love her
she would fight
not once did she give
a second thought
to fools that didn’t
hold her heart tight
even so she cried…
so did Gypsy Daisy

Happy Friday-Happy Day-Forget-Me-Not

Happy Friday Sweet Friends to You

Oh Happy Day to You…Do you feel it? Deep inside your soul? I feel sometimes I’m so Happy and it’s nothing that happened to make me so…I’m just happy all by myself…Forget-Me-Not Sweet Soul

I felt you might need some sweetness today ~ღ~

Pruned

Have you ever felt like you have been pruned by The Master Gardener? All the dead stuff cut away, or perhaps the not so fruity parts of your life pruned and cut away so they can bare more fruit ? Well I have and so has my garden! I was thinking today how sometimes we have to cut away what seems to the eye a good product but pruning allows for newness to grow and everything looks different and feels different because it is.

My butterfly bushes are going crazy this year. I really cut them back and they are blooming out of their spaces this year. 🦋 Come on butterflies. 🦋💜 I’m hoping for the same in my life. 🙏🏼

Yesterday when I was young…Patricia Kaas

 

This is one of my Pa’s favorite songs originally sung by Roy Clark, new rendition by Patricia Kaas. I remember as a young girl watching my Pa listen to this song sitting on the back porch, he with sunglasses on. My Pa knew somehow I would feel like he felt like I feel today I remember chasing his words to find some semblance of him. I don’t feel like time and youth had run out but I feel wisdom of age has taught me to not be stupid and even if I am it’s okay to do dumb stuff. Happy Father’s Day Pa…I never feel like you are gone.

 

SMILE…Happy Day…SMILE

I like it when you SMILE~smile with Me
