Bella Luna - Jason Mraz

Sol ☼

Soul's stir, revolving, revolting out of darkness into the light.  There is a rhythm to the constant rotation of life like the sun that shimmers and shines, slides and slips into place with precision and purpose.  Winter and summer preform a special dance when the solstice escorts a new season in and out. A chance to switch gears takes place, a shift occurs as the sacred sun is left standing still momentarily out on the wide open ballroom dance floor, motionless. Then a reverse motion is made moving with a slow powerful thrust, out of this part of the world, onto it's next destination. The rising sun appears as a simple yet splendid spectacular sun and far out in the horizon once again the sun falls off the face of dear mother earth eager to make it's grand entrance again, only hours from now ☼

☼ What to say about the sun's  powerful presence?  The massive ball of fire is great and always the guest of honor among the all star cast of celestial characters in the solar system. The intense radiant heat aims it's mighty sunliness beaming with reckless and abandon.

Solar energy is harnessed and controlled, trapping what can be harvested from it's unforgiving ways, laser beams of heat emit a measured amount of  power. A serape of heat and source of brilliance drapes over the globe with life. The tidal waves of heat creates fantastically orchestrated

fire storms while taking it's place in existence. The power and energy of the sun seem limitless, infinite with staggering ability to breathe it's hot breath on the earth and all of it's inhabitant's. Plants, animals, all land and sea life seek it's warmth and light. ☼ Those off in the distant shores look forward to a long standing and welcome visitor, the new light of day. It will be robed in hope and the promise of returning tomorrow with more warmth, light and liveliness.

Got LOVE?

"Since You've Asked"

I hope your warm during these cold days. Here's a wonderful song Judy Collins wrote. I would like to dedicate it to YOU since this month is February, month of Love and all that happy heart stuff. This song is for you Precious Hearts. I hope the sound of it warms you up and fills a little of your time & space with tenderness.

Dan Fogelberg & Tim Weisberg reach out to the listener with music brimming with a  melody beyond beauty, the rhythm is romantic and the voice is silky smooth as it  slides and glides in and out of a lovely place with a spirit so soft and sweet.

Happy Valentines Day's Sweet Ones!

Mooniac

I guess you could say my heart holds a special place for you. Yes, after all these years I've known you. I miss you while your out of sight for a few weeks but then I see a glimmer of your light, it squeezes through the night sky, the smile slowly widens  into a full blown beaming eye poppin radiant glow. It's kind of hard not to take you personally, through thick and thin and over the course of my life time, many moons and memories ago... the moon, as wonderous and breathtaking as ever! 

I mean it man, I love you moon... for watching my back all these years and still on the ready to light my way, follow me home, dance that slow dance you do, suspended in the sky like the greatest show on earth out and over the strata in the galactic big top for all to take in.

* Lovin the view from here my old fatihful companion.. You, the one, my only  moon. Here- heres a wish, a kiss and hug for you.. bounce it back to everyone here would you?, for those who see you and appreciates your far out ways and who are mooniacs like me. xo

My world, Your world, Our world...

... "What is prejudice"?

... "Ah umm, I think it's when shumbuee is sick".

Words and Birds

Word! Words are like beautiful birds that flock together. The right combination of words used to convey a concept is like a mouth watering meal. The written and spoken word when pieced together correctly is so satisfying. A well strung sentence is a symphony of sound to hear, appetizing and pleasing to read, the blend is magic and delicious, strong, gentle, heart warming and alarming, spellbinding and repulsive. Words to the listener, speaker, reader and writer are like clay to the potter, paint on a pallet., chemicals to the chemist and fuel to the rocket.

The power of the spoken and written word is potent and prompts every emotion possible, from pain and glory to elation, frustration, indignation and adoration. So much to be said about words... their meaning, symbolic of any given time in history, the present moment and the future. WORD

Here's a fantastic example of words in flight resplendent with a wide variety of dives and leaps, launches, spins, twists and turns, thought provoking, punny and fun down and not too dirty, up high, dry, witty and wise combinations of words.
