The Ache Of Sad
In Response To:
Word Of The Day Challenge – Sad
Lynn’s Tuesday Picture Prompt Week 33 – Your challenge or writing prompt is this: what emotions or feelings get evoked or aroused in you when you look at this photograph taken by Lynn.
The creative goal for all of us is “what does the picture evoke in you; what emotion; feeling; memory or whatever it may be – what does it arouse in you and to share it that with others.“
An open gate invokes
invitation
Mother Nature beckons
Come, enter my sanctuary
inhale the fragrant aroma and
the kiss of Sun’s warmth
where the soul is free to be
still in the quiet peace
away from the disconnect
of the cold concrete jungle
filled with the world’s chaos…
Alas, due to many limitations
I cannot accept her invitation
only gaze and meditate on
a picture of her and
imagine myself there
yet I am still left with
the ache of sad

Tilling Of The Heart
In Response To:
Word Of The Day Challenge – Tenderness
Crimson’s Creative Challenge #114 – Every Wednesday I post a photo. You respond with something CREATIVE.
Like the ground frozen over
in the midst of the bitter cold
so can the heart become also
filled with unnourished dead weeds
leaving the heart in a comatose state
yet when a seed of tenderness is
sown into an unhealed heart it
shall melt the bitter cold
creating abundantly fertile soil
that sprouts new hope filled life
flowing with eternal springs of
Living Waters!

The Garden’s Grandeur
In Response To:
Eugi’s Causerie Weekly Word Prompt – Laughter – January 13, 2020 – Go where the prompt leads you and publish a post on your own blog that responds to the prompt. It can be words and/or images. Please keep it family friendly. Prompts close 7 days from the close of my post.
Tears and laughter
dwell in the same garden
growing next to each other
in nourishing harmony
to root deeper and
strengthen one another
for weeping causes a
deeper genuine laughter
and laughter heals
what was wept
both equally important
in the cultivating of
the garden’s grandeur

Word For The Day…
From: Gratefulness.org
If we begin to get in touch with whatever we feel with some kind of kindness, our protective shells will melt, and we’ll find that more areas of our lives are workable.

Unity Of Spirit
In Response To:
V.J.’s Weekly Challenge #71 – Wait – Explore with me, if you will, the concept of waiting. Of course, this has more than one meaning, but I’m sure you’ll figure out which works for you.
Willingness to be still
And embrace what is revealed
Igniting a Light that heals
Transcending brokenness into wholeness
