  • What Do You Want for Breakfast?

Cup of joe

A playful bit of poetry

I'll have sunshine and starlight
Great gusts of wind a-blowin'
A silently falling summer mist 
My feet upon cool earth

I want ease for my day
A clear heart and mind
Love sprinkled on everything
A few moments of silence

Sweetness and sloppy kisses
A puppy by my side
Purring and sideways glances
A cat to keep me humble

Companionship and solace
My mate to hold my hand
Gentleness and compassion
As I look upon the mirror

Oh, did you mean food?

I'll have a bite of garden freshness
Two bits of protein, please
A dollop of something sinful
And a lovely cup of Joe

Poetry

Welcome

I've been writing blogs on the internet since 2007. Like my life, my words have wandered from Wisdom or Life Lessons and Wellness, to Gardening and Aquaponics. After my son’s death by suicide in 2016, Poetry became a big piece of my world as I tried to make sense of the tragedy of his death.

In truth, his death took me into my own journey with darkness. I've shared a bit during the last ten years but nothing in comparison to what I've written. Only recently have I started to climb back into life and the desire to share my writing.

These days, my writing is varied and inspired by the moment. I participate in two writing group, one where we write to prompts from a book by Judy Reeves called A Writer’s Book of Days: A Spirited Companion and the other where we journey and then write about our experience or about the wisdom gained. Much of this writing is buried in journals in my office. As I move forward, Some of that will be found under Stories, Magic and the Mystical.

How do you read this jumble of topics? You can read what’s latest, type a word into Search and see what comes up, or select a Topic from the Blog Content below. However you read, I hope you enjoy.

Blessings, Victoria
