Sometimes

Posted on February 12, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium

Gaia’s Art

Posted on December 27, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

The world around me resonates to the most amazing tune; from the deepest greenest forest to the stark beauty of a dune. I wish I had the words to speak the views seen from my heart; there is no thing … Continue reading →

I need a break

Posted on December 27, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

When life is a cacophony; with no stillness left to feel. It’s time to find a gentleness; a place where you can heal. And so today I’ll wander somewhere among the trees; they’ll absorb my headspace and leave my heart … Continue reading →

The Forest

Posted on November 7, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

I Drink

Posted on November 7, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

Walking with trees

Posted on November 5, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

How can we walk out with these trees and not worship them bended knees. Even just the remnants we have left leave me, at times, of words benefit. The grandeur and the might I see remind me that life still’s … Continue reading →

Lunacy

Posted on November 5, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

Lunacy looms where cacophony booms and the cries of a child echo into the wild. ‘Tis then that we need to refind our own seed and talk to a tree about how to be free. “Look at all the lonely … Continue reading →

On Driplines

My ‘Other’ Love

Posted on October 22, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

I met her many years ago; her heart looked through my Soul and even one simple caress made me feel more whole. Her warmest touch held sweet love that was unbounding; her gentle strength a thing that truly was resounding. … Continue reading →

Awaken!

Posted on October 22, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

Awaken and look at the world around; Awaken and look where we are bound. Stand up for the way life ought to be; stand for the planet – stand tall and free.

Dance of Wild Folk

Posted on October 22, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

There are those times when Angels sing and Faeries do the Highland Fling. The Leprechauns drink lots of beer and Magick we know is very near. It’s then, you know, the moon is right for the Dragon folk to all … Continue reading →

What will hold up the sky?

Posted on October 16, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

Just a Thought

Posted on October 15, 2018 by a foolhardy florilegium

If the heart is where the Spirit walks, then the mind becomes where wisdom talks. If we see the world through wisdon’s eyes then I think that all our hatred dies. If hatred dies, then life can go on; and … Continue reading →
