Every day is savored;
in its full mix
of babble and spitup
surprise smiles
and sitting up
the music is always on
the rain falls
out the window;
we hear it all
surround sound,
inside, it’s always warm
and we are learning
how to play more, live
more, roll on our bellies,
flip over and study our toys on
our backs
tasting so many new foods
as our brain cells ping
and our taste buds zing
and this is the life,
thee life!
it’s simple and always
available come rhyme or shine,
blowing raspberries and
tasting them too!

I love this, Ka. So sweet, cuddly, warm, and joyful. Sharing.
Thank you so much Diana! 🙂
It sounds delightful Ka. I’m glad you two are enjoying life together.
Brad – I so love when my poetry and my life go hand in hand! My muses have been more abstract in the past. I’m glad I could share this with you! Have a happy day!
My muse is usually stirred from actual experience, especially in nature and revisiting my feelings connected to my photos and experiences.
I love the “stirring of the muse” however it happens! So wonderful when we get a spark of inspiration and we follow it as far as it takes us! Let us have so much more of that, please! 🙂 Interesting how you like to revisit your feelings in photos. That strikes me as uniquely you – much enjoyment to you, Brad!
Thank you Ka. Yes, however my muse shows up, I’m grateful and try to follow. Yes, let’s follow the call. 🙂
Yes, Let’s!!
You have such a positive outlook on daily life~ I really appreciate it and admire it, You are truly a light-exuding being!
Thank you, Kristen! I’d like to think I’ve cultivated that outlook, in some way. Also, I think it’s been arising much more naturally (more often). I just stumbled upon another gratitude booklet, and day 1 is 10 things I enjoy about the outdoors. I’m on day 2 now… The gratitude practice is a good thing to return to. One of my favorite practices is to wake up and say, “What energy can I be today that will be easy and fun for me and my body?”
