A Shiny New Spring

This morning I woke with the sun trying to force it's way into my slumber. The dark dungeon basement doesn't usually allow visitors especially when they are bright and intrusive, but today the Sun snuck in! The first Signs of spring make me so delighted that I want to be as fresh and creative and pretty and shiny as I possibly can be. Spring is a new beginning and a delicious one at that! It is a time when you are unstoppable, the world is in you hands and like wet clay ready to be molded into something magnificent. We are watching the grass turn green and the flowers bloom and the birds and the bugs come out to play, its like a vacation, but only you don't have to leave your town! Winter Blue had his toll on me and now, I am ready to come out of the shrubbery under the deck and face the light of the universe. It is going to be a Spring to make the most of, a Spring to jump off roofs and fly in planes and deep sea dive, all without fear or uncertainty. A confident multi-print three piece suit with a tutu, that couldn't sound like a worse idea, but couldn't look more fabulous!

Today I feel different than yesterday. Instead of setting my alarm last night, I just went to sleep and found myself waking up on time without my alarm, which is very very rare, but I decided to treat myself to an extra half hour. I dreamt of sunshine and warmth and a field of long green grass with unicorns and butterflies and friends. When I woke up I decided that I want to run a marathon and be the president.

Marshmallow Monday

This morning I woke up in Marshmallow Melancholy. Everything was soft and white and seemed sweet, sweetly hinted with sugar. Never have I felt this way, it was nice. An interesting change for a day. Enjoyable, but subtle.

92

How many days until you turn 92? Will you ever turn 92? Clora was 92. Would you like to be 92 sometime? How old do you want to be when you pass over the rainbow bridge? If I may stay mentally and physically healthy until I am 92, then I suppose I might live that long, otherwise it would be hard to nurse a body in which your soul is slowly leaving. If someone here on earth needs my body for longer than I am prepared for, it would be okay to stay for them. When my time comes, I would like to become a butterfly providing beauty, hope and peace to the lives of those I flutter for. Clora is probably a tiny bird. I bet she loves to fly and carry important messages all over the world or her favorite region, surely it must be up to her now. Maybe a little girl will raise me from a caterpillar in her closet, then once I morph into my final form of a colorfully magnificent butterfly she will set me free into the world. Maybe that day she will want to be a butterfly after she is a girl and then a woman. Where do you want your soul to go?

Pearls

Today is June 4th which is a very special day for a very special person and it just so happens their birthstone is the best of all the birthstones. June Birthstone is a Pearl. Pearls are just so little and pretty and come in so many shapes, sizes, and colors. I know three Pearls named Destinie and Natasha and Mary. Destinie is a pinkish colored fresh water Pearl. Natasha is a black salt water pearl, and Mary is an iridescent white salt water Pearl. They are the prettiest Pearls I have ever seen. When I grow up I would like to be a Pearl just like them, or maybe a Pearl necklace made up of all of the different types of Pearls. That would be a lovely way to spend a life.

The Way I Feel

It feels hip to be messy, but it feels deeply to be tidy.

Brand New Day

It's a new day, a new world, the flowers have changed colors and the sky is beaming bright green today. Today is my day. I love the way the wind smells like fresh soil and the carrots are ready to be eaten. I love the sunshine glowing through the deckside chairs. Winter wasn't today and neither was Fall. It seems today has no temperature, it feels like bliss. What a day for a dress and no shoes. My day for bubbly skies and bubbly beds in the backyard. A day with my copper flavored girl and me. A day for happy.
