I decided to write letters to the precious moments of my life-the people, places and hopes both known and as yet unrealized. Have a look at where todays’s thoughts took me….Here

In a Word.. #1LinerWednesday
Serendipity…
The holidays aren’t complete for me without a few unconventional “traditions”-a cafe, a certain treat, a movie-or ten! And some aren’t really classically holiday films. But this one marks the season for my romantic heart and has become a Christmas tradition for me since I first saw it back in 2001. No one does manic, adorable romantic antics as well as John Cusak, and who can resist the charm of Kate Beckinsale? What an adventure in serendipitous happy ending satisfaction. If you’ve never seen it, you can catch it on Hulu. Lose yourself in possibility and dreams…
I can never get enough happy endings…or Serendipity.

The Understudy
Behind the curtain,
beneath the lights
and hidden safely
out of sight
she waits.
Recites her lines
with sheer perfection,
the moves and words,
her grand reflection
of heart’s desire.
Her role it seems
fell short of dreams,
though happy she
tenaciously
supports the cast.
They who shine
and intertwine
creating magic,
tender, tragic…
’till bright stars fall!
The, blossoming,
she takes the stage,
her book of life
thus turns a page-
she is newborn!
Glowing, growing
rave review
her dreams it seems
all coming true.
She climbs the heights
to light the nights…
as they who climb
are marking time,
taking their marks
like hungry sharks
they circle
and wait,
thus the fate
of
The Understudy.

A Closer Look/Photography
Glimmer.
A childish delight!
Yet take a closer look,
like the magic in a book..
sparking the imagination
into throes of bright creation-
spinning!
Blinking!
Eyes tell mind to loose its grip,
mind abandons thought- I slip
into Wonderland.
Merely bubbles….
Whirling globes
of chemistry
dancing in the air….
for me!
Captivating!
There inside,
oh let me in!
Magnificent,
enchanted realm
of yesterthen…
Let me dream,
let me send
foolish worry
to the wind…
Cradled in
your care,
light as air,
to be propelled,
and thus dispelled…..
poof!
And with a gentle breath
blown into oblivion..
Leaving
but a memory….
Bittersweet.
