Destiny is there and all around, when you take the time to be aware of every sensation within your being and surrounding you…free from the distractions of mind filled thoughts it is the angelic voice, the inner guide ready to lead you to your destiny.
This makes a lot of sense, Debby. Thank you. Love and blessings to you,

Thought it's in the past 2003, It fits in with this MOther's Day. Mother's do care for their children well, even at funerals. Like the fact that you wore her favorite color a pink sweater. Really a great tribute to her. I enjoyed this write and just found you on the den.

A great write Debby.. Taking care of those that are really ill is a job for special people such as your self . I can relate to your story as I am a nurse, wife, mother, daughter and grandmother.

A beautiful story, read by me - only because you had complimented one of my works. What a wonderful small world of love and emotion! Your words here kindled fires within memories long gone. At a comfortable and healthy, 86, I anjoy wirting and reading at AD. Am sure that most of your readers are women, but I trust that will change, as men allow emotions to go where they need to flow. Am tracking you for a while. Don't disappoint me, please.

Creative, to say the least. I like to see a writer challenge the status quo, and I think this one pretty much did that. Very good and . . . dare I say it again . . . creative.

Debb- I stumbled on this and so early too- but, I had to say- this is Wonderful- I thorughly enjoyed every word. Did this really happen? Did you feel all this sitting on the bench-pew-? Were those people there or did you feel for someone close and it appeared out of your head somewhere???? don't answer I don't believe it's meant for me - any of us- to know...... It makes you wonder- and CARE more! for someone you know little of- WRiting takes on that form- You feel and you write- This talent came through here- I am keeping this...... YOU have a heart of a gold-
and... I peeked in your Bio- and you looked like a bundle of dynomite- Energy to sustain your every wanting and and Fun to be around... I bet I'm close-
Enjoy! YOur day- You just made mine, I have this slumber kind of feeling in me now... it's a good thing, it's a concern and love feeling.... Thank you~ Warmly,Sheeeox

this hit home for me today because i just found out today that a friend's 17-year-old son died during heart surgery; he apparently had some sort of complications, but don't know more than that. i really feel bad for my friend because this is the second death for her; a few years ago she lost her mother to alzheimer's. i guess this happened last night. i feel bad for my friend because she has a 13 year old daughter, and she was a single mother, raising her kids. the boy who died also was mentally disabled, so he seemed younger than his 17 years, still, he was a sweet kid. i will miss him a lot...

Debby this hits home for me, as I am a heart attack and major, non-crippling stroke survivor. It is sooooooo good when there is family at home that can care for us, in the manner of love, kinmanship, and healing. Because not only are we healing, but the family and friends are healing too. We must soothe those who think they brought on our suffering. They must be told that it is God's will and if He wants to heal, then we will, but that love and kinmanship help too. Very good write Debby. May the Lord be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love, peace, & (((HUGS))), Barbie

Great little vignettes of awakening spring. I have an orange and stripy in my yard often from the neighbors' multiple cats. The other evening I was observing a little gecko feeding on the screen of my window when "Bam!" the squashed face of the orange and stripy hit the screen hard in the poor little lizard was an evening snack.
I have an apricot tree that has only bloomed once or twice and has never had fruit. It is the absolute last to have leaves in the spring, but the birds love it, so it stays.

Gentle rain is nice to have once in a while. Especially because it replenishes the earth. But I find that if it is prolonged, rain leads to melancholy. Let's hope the morning is clear and bright with dew dripping everywhere.

You missed one. Our cluster of galaxies is rapidly accelerating away from the Big Bang, soon to exceed the speed of light. That said, I love speed because it gives me an exhilaration I don't get anywhere else… Just as long as there are no sudden stops. ;-)
Kate says it well. You have blended several philosophical viewpoints into one poem very nicely.

Excellent exposition of holding the tensile force of the universe: the now which is ever-present in the light of the moment that rushes by. How you have managed to simplify such thoughts into a straightforward narrative of drive, colour and conviction is wonderful here, Debby. A fabulous piece of poetry, physics and philosophy. xx

Debby, you have given us a time capsule to use in working out how we might want to live our lives. I so loved this . . . "how could I possibly hold on to yesterday / it’s millions of miles gone past." How so indeed. This is one hell of a "teaching" poem. Thank you.

courage and strength are the core of a developed spiritual and social nature ...to successfully handle life one must also be able to learn from the constructive criticism of others who care to steer us along ... if we can't handle it, we are weak and alone and will see and only see the "aloneness of all in one" ... my twist on an interesting poem ...

I never heard birds so vividly as when I woke up one morning in Guatemala and went out on the deck of my hotel to the cacophony of the early-morning activity of birds I had never heard before and probably never will hear again. Still, I can hear the sparrows that constantly flock around the water and birdseed we put out, as well as the unmistakable sound of mourning doves and the delightful morning charades by the talented mockingbird.

aquarius moon (Poetry) - 5/28/2014 7:35:15 AM
While I read several times, I'm not sure who the "they" are you are writing about. The title suggests that the poem is about something Aquarian or "enlightening." But I'm sorry, I was not enlightened. I see that others were greatly so. They must have more insight than I.
Ron
aquarius moon (Poetry) - 5/28/2014 3:58:07 AM
wow. your poem speaks to me as introversion. i love it.
aquarius moon (Poetry) - 5/27/2014 11:08:01 AM
A thought-provoking poem! It is said that the human's behavior is somehow connected with the stars and the moon, and is governed by them in which how the humans would act and feel.
However, I don't think it's necessary for anyone to understand everyone though, for the human's behavior varies. In order to understand all human's behavior you'll need to be a psychiatrist; but even so, there have been many professionals who had failed to understand the human's behavior.
I think all one needs to do is to manage one's OWN life, and make good of himself/herself. There is no need to worry about others unless they are directly relating to us; or that perhaps they are truly in need of someone else's support and understanding.

That can be very dangerous. I prefer to let cameras take the beautiful pictures that I see of the sun and its magnificent ability to power our world.

once caught up in the momentum of creation, the finish is just the surface of its depths ... creation has a tendency to loop, at least until it finishes being observed ...
looper (Poetry) - 2/3/2014 12:27:16 PM
You never have to wonder about the finish, because this seasons repeat themselves every year on cue, in a never-ending cycle as long as the earth rotates on its axis and around the sun.

I like this thoughtful meditation, Debby. I am constantly caught myself in this web of confusing what I think with what I am. An interesting dialogue the two always create, that's for sure! :) xx

I think that sunshine settled in the orange. Giving us vitamin C during the long winter and reminding us that we are so dependent upon the orange light of the sun, no matter how low in the sky this time of year.
Ron

So good to read you again, Debby, and I, too, am becoming more aware of sounds that hitherto have been my environmental 'white noise'. In fact, all my senses are far more awake then I think they have been before; perhaps it's an 'age-thing'?! :) I like how you conjure this awareness so effectively and yet simply. Has a haunting quality that is both calming and faintly disquieting. Nice! Do hope you're well. xx

freights (Poetry) - 1/10/2014 9:22:09 AM
Yes, if we live near the tracks, the sounds of freight's become part of our daily life.
I'm trying to find and can't remember a famous poet from the 60s whose poetry was often on the radio. I remember picking up one of his coffee table books and reading a very long poem that he wrote about, "I Remember Trains."

Sort of like bugs being born, except it's symbolic and grand in its expectations. The birds and the bees never seemed so sweet. Waiting foolishly for a kiss but never expecting what comes from the bloom. Sweet words. I enjoyed the freshness of this one Debby. Bob

Is Time? (Poetry) - 1/26/2013 8:27:52 PM
Time is man made and Earthly. There could be a 100,000 things that can happen to us in a split second that we miss; the "time" we are unaware of. Then again from a Universal point of view, our lives could be as fleeting as a drop in a pond.

"one finds a search that will never end" Indeed! At some point in the journey (I've learned personally that) enlightenment will have compassion on its seekers and, in so doing, reveal to them that planting and tending a garden, partaking of its beauty, and eating of its bounty, is infinitely more rewarding. Thought-provokingly rendered.
effortlessly (Poetry) - 1/23/2013 2:18:44 PM
we are our own misdirection
refusing to see the obvious
... such a clever yet concise exposition of what I, too, believe, Debby. If we could just relax into our own sense of being, so much of what we search for will be seen to be what's growing within as we learn to become aware of and develop it... effortlessly! :) xx

Is Time? (Poetry) - 1/22/2013 8:51:08 AM
Time was ... I'd have agreed... and Time has yet to prove me wrong... truth be told, I'd rather be out of Time just in time to plan a timely time-out timed to the tune of some 'old-time' rhyme... I guess it's true what they say about timing... it's everything... and nothing can compare to a well-timed remark... so I'll conclude where your poem left off: "Time is only as real as your last thought"... and that, dear Deb, is a timeworn truth.
Is Time? (Poetry) - 1/20/2013 8:10:35 AM
