Things change
Times change
People change
Hoping somethings and people stay the same?
The latter hurts
It can be toxic
It can be painful
It is Debbie and Dean Downer
You can accept it or ignore it
The visits are lessened
You enjoy the memories
You can't live in them
So as new people come into your life
Enjoy them and the friends you have around you
As for Debbie and Dean Downer
In One Ear and Out The Other

Jif,Skippy,Nutty ,Cashew and otbers wete eating acorns.
The aroma and  sounds of  shells hitting tbe wet grass alerted them
They looked at me and took the nuts
Some eating
While others climbing up trees with shelled nuts in their.mouths
Before you poo poo this
We support charities and care
These adoreable creatures saw me through the last four difficult years
Now,more smiles and hope for better times ahead
Til next week little ones

Remnants of Helene are in the Northeast with gray skies and rain
September is saying farewell
Poet’s walk must continue
Until she came upon an imperfectly placed artwork by her feet
Mother Nature’s wonder
Amber
Canary
Honey
Sunshine
Biscotti
Sepia
Fawn
Ruby
Burgundy
Cherry
Currant
Rose
M­ixed in with good measure
Splendidly arranged in Mother Nature’s Mosaic

If you celebrate or.not
Be careful
Be safe
Make choices good for all not some

Some think we are special
Am I an empath?
Maybe
Some think something is very wrong
Others very right
Some people need to initiate brain before opening their mouth
They runneth over and know not who they hurt or why
We are artists,writers, and creative souls
I am sensitive, deal with it

Beauty and truth
forever embark
Born of the moment
together apart
To mountains unclimbed
and oceans unsailed
Beyond the horizon
— where prescience unveils

DNA
Woven threads that unravel
If you don't make an effort or care
Reaching out is helpful
Leaving yesterday and what was behind
Do you know what might have been?
Do you even care?
Leaving well enough alone ?
