Blooms in the nightI transform into moonsto increase the light andmake mystical the mood, darken the restto a sea of blackso the glowing floral and I can float or dance on water or airor maybe both,which is whythey reflect dropsof The Eighth Sea's soul. Poem and images ©LauraDenise
Morning coffee on the patio:it's been awhile. New neighbor childrenand puppy raisingled to a different lifestyle. Reconnecting with my cursive, reunion of paper and pen,a classic hand-dance, electronics self-banned.

A neighborhood walkto marvel in the arrivalof spring:just what I needed.My furry companion, too, raises his faceto the fresh breeze. Trees and planted bushesin people's private yardsbloom in unison withthe wildflowers on vacant lots, for heart-buds in springcannot help but burstwhen the harbingers arriveand announce it's finally time for rebirth.

Pinks, reds, yellows, purples...take me to where the ivory unfurls petals reminiscent of celestial wings,angel-whispers of the purest things, stories of strength derived from faith,and tales of troubles confronted with grace. Bold colors burst forth in the celebration of spring,but I find myself frozen, soul keenly listening to the ladies in white, swaying silently;they draw … Continue reading Ladies in White
