Can you name three things that the moon symbolizes for you?
How do you wish to be ‘seen’, and is that happening?
Where will you shine just a little more light in your world?
Seems dreamland is visiting me lately. I use to dream vividly ever night for years. Kept a dream journal, was part of a dream group… I was dreaming in technicolor; full of symbolism and great stories. Hormones shifted that. So it with great welcome I invite them back. I miss my night dreams. I think I should do a ‘woo woo’ dance in celebration. What is your dream world like?

Should life lead my memory away from me
I buried my stories beneath my skin
laid them in bright ink
to shine on my surfaces
My story is writing in pictures and flash
symbols of a journey taken
a history spoken to in ink
cameos of life lived vividly
To define the why of it is for me only
I can caress your curiosity
or your want for explanation
with your looks and stares
My journey didn’t include you
It didn’t try to exclude you
stories are for the telling
the truth can be tricky
Living art is a life of wonder
the why of the pain is ours
the results give pleasure
see beyond the surfaces
When my days are numbered
n’ inks fades with my mind
This ‘exotic bird’ I am
will fly the wind to heaven
I come from a family whose memories and minds do leave… so much Alzheimer’s in the genes. I love to think of my mom and how she might have looked, her story in color on her skin.
