Natures Love Song
The tree covered hill tops
Alive with the chirping of birds
Their songs echoing
Providing solace and joy to my soul
They sing their song
Encouraging nature along,
Natures love song
Giving rise to the earth

Essence
I sit here waiting
not so patiently for you.
Feeling alive inside
Aware of my pumping heart and every breath
I know you are nearing me,
completing me,
greeting me Continue reading
3 Months of Blogging: 42,000 views, 4050 followers and the ‘Tricks of the Trade’
It is officially my 3 month blogging anniversary is today!
My how time has flown by!
People have been asking me quite often how I got readers and traffic. People want to know the ‘tricks of the trade’ so to speak.
Well, let’s begin with this.
One step closer..
One foot infront of the other…keep on keeping on..
Mumbles and Grumbles
Mumbles and Grumbles
Get over your grumbles
Your quiet voiced mumbles
Life is too short
So hit abort
On your onboard
Autopilot
And fly it
Life is too short
Your quiet voiced mumbles
Get over your grumbles

Life is too short to hold onto grudges.
So many people walk around mumbling and grumbling beneath their breath. Often looking for bad and negative situations to occur around them so they can grumble some more.
It saddens me to see people often choosing to hold onto their frustrations.
We tend to live life on autopilot….
……We have adjusted our settings and set off on that course but often things change in our life and we forget to readjust the settings on the autopilot. But it’s important to. Readjusting ones self and ones perspectives is not always easy but the first step to a new perspective is taking charge trying to take hold of the wheel and attempt to fly manually!
Think of the clouds as your mumbles and grumbles. We need to take control of the plane and fly high above them.
Life is too short to do it any other way. Try to be more like….
…..it is a choice that you have to make each and every day.
Purposely
It could have been me
but it’s not
The lessons I learned
I long forgot
We all have a shot at this life
No time to struggle or strife
But time to use the perspective lens
Examine those bothersome trends
Well wishes for distant friends
I take a little from there
And bring it with me here
To where I’m going to be
Life is about choices
Trying on our different voices Continue reading

By the Fire
Sitting by the fire
It pops and crackles
Snapping like a crispy cracker
Except louder
Each crackle
And pop makes my heart stop
Makes me want to burst into flames
A burning pain
In my soul Continue reading
