I AM here. In the garden. ~ Early morning dawns with promise Cool air kisses me hello Quail’s familiar two-beat comment Letting his companion know I AM here. Pre-dawn light, the garden beckons Heat has not yet scorched the day Scent and scenery sweetly reckons What was sown in mellow May. I AM here. Harsh now, all the elements be Searing baulkers, the unwary But in this early light, I see The wonders, wrought so perfectly. They speak to me Lovingly Abundantly Clearly I AM here. “Happiness Depends Upon Ourselves”~ Aristotle
Dear Ari, When you’re right, you’re right. Love, Kim ~ CHOOSE ~~ ? ~ Choose to be happy To depend on yourself To find joy by the end of each day. ~ Choose to be honest To live only the truth No regrets; ne’er deceive or betray. ~ Choose to be valiant To look fear in the face Straighten shoulders; lift your chin and love. ~ Choose to be brilliant To let your light so shine That the Gods seek you out, from above. ~ This Is to live. Choose. ~ ? ~
Look. Look closely. At HER. She is Love Is Lovely Lovable Perfect. See? Yes? Lucky! If not, Grieve. Because that means You haven’t the eyes To see. Travesty.
I dreamed of you So vividly Before you breathed life here. You came to me with firm belief That you were mine, so dear. When morning came, I lucidly Considered your request, And changed up my life’s plan Right there, Upon your righteousness. Once committed, I prepared To have you in my life, Proceeding forth to welcome you No fear, no doubt, no strife. When you arrived, Beloved! I knew that we’d been right. We salvaged joy, began new worlds, Thanks to that fateful night.
Inspired by Three Word Wednesday… Lucid, Righteous, Salvage As he teetered on the brink Of this existence Did he quantify success Based on Fast cars and hot women? ~ Any regrets? ~ Did the futile search For his ideal Cause concern? ~ Did he measure his own value In the manner of the world: Dollars Cents Titles Rents, And feel remorse? ~ Or did he say, “Hot Damn! This was one wild ride! I’m so flippin’ glad I lived large ’til I died!”
