Returning to the sweetness

Image
returning to the sweetness of butter cookies baking, music from lands I've never stepped upon monstrous choices, left on the foothills of the Himalayas the time has come to believe my own starry visions, and dare to dance my dreams in earth tones wrapped in a warm fabric, woven with the magic of my earliest teachers now vanished from bodies, still smiling, helping me to align my crystal rivered visions with the keen eyes of  wolves, owls hawks, and cardinals flying through obstacles..... returning to be nothing more than a self- loving human- being, at peace with the querying.... kjl '18

Timbre

"I have fallen in love with the imagination. And if you fall in love with the imagination, you understand that it is a free spirit. It will go anywhere, and it can do anything." ~ Alice Walker we cannot choose the falling of the rain, nor the timbre of the music--how it keeps playing voices of ancestors deep within the cloistered forest letting soul's beauty to keep rain sticks, french horn, crickets, church bells a ringing through thickets stirring naked feet to dance- rain soaked clover to summer sky, romance earth bound we ground knowing our roots we gaze up to what shall be braiding all of eternity in one song we hear-- steering clear of lies, our life can be pure lullaby words/photo~ kate lamberg (c) '17
