because sometimes…
you just gotta dance!
“ with the dance! let joy be unconfined;
No sleep till morn, when Youth and Pleasure meet
To chase the glowing hours with flying feet.”
~George Gordon, Lord Byron, Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage
Hope your weekend is filled with unconfined joy!
blowin’ in the wind
the holding on
the letting go
and one final wish
what would your last wish be?
simple joys
“Childhood is the world of miracle or of magic: it is as if creation rose luminously out of the night, all new and fresh and astonishing. Childhood is over the moment things are no longer astonishing. When the world gives you a feeling of “déjà vu,” when you are used to existence, you become an adult.”
~ Eugene Ionesco
it was time…
to get back into the city
even though it was a day to celebrate motherhood
I felt the need to pay tribute
to the sons and daughters who lost their lives
in the Boston Marathon bombings
as I stood there
I couldn’t help but think
it could have been one of ours
or one of yours
you always think it can’t happen where you live
after spending time amidst this amazing memorial
along with so many others this day
I was flooded with a great sense of pride for my city
as life goes on in Boston
the birthplace of freedom
No more hurting people. Peace
~Martin Richard
