Lazyboy of mine
With book in hand
Cuddling with the kitten.

The garden in my mind does grow.
I look outside to blinding white,
And see my tulips blooming bright.
And over there a sweet carnation
Softly scents my imagination.
In my mind, clematis climbs,
And morning glories do entwine.
Woodland phlox, and scarlet pinks,
Replace the snow, if I just blink.
My inner eye sees past the snow.
And in my mind my garden grows.

But just because it looks quiet
doesn't mean that nothing is happening.
Bare branches of each tree on this
chilly January morn looks cold.
But, the fog slithered in,
and frosted the trees,
so very lovely for all to see.
"To read a poem in January is as lovely as to go for a walk in June." ~ Jean-Paul Sartre
Praise Someone...
It can mean so much.
Particularly if it's unexpected.
And unsolicited.
It spreads goodwill.
It warms the giver.
It encourages the receiver.
It brings dividends.
It engenders loyalty.
It bonds.
"Praise is the best diet for us, after all." ~ Sydney Smith
I took this picture of the "Blue Moon" last evening, that is some of the lilac bush in the foreground.
Last night was a full moon, also it was a "Blue Moon." No, that doesn't mean the moon is blue, it only means there were two full moons in December 2009. The last time there was a 'Blue Moon" on December 31, was twenty years ago on December 31, 1990.
Moon River Trivia
A full moon always rises at sunset.
A full moon is nine times brighter than a half moon.
February 1865 is the only month in recorded history not to have a full moon.
tears welling up without warning.
No matter how long ago,
no matter how often,
if you have sadness and grief locked away
it will eat away at you.
Let it out.
Release it.
We need never be ashamed of our tears."
