Peace, fish and poems

These pictures are a peaceful part of our yard, not like a prayer place but like a reminder, of peace and tranquillity. Thought I'd share because the water in it started to get mosquito larvae, I told my husband, wondering what we should do. Later, think next day after he brought home a surprise. 10 small goldfish. Not even one mosquito in the water the day after lol.

If you check real hard at next pictures, may see a fish or 2, or 3, 4 :)

Helped a friend today just a little, by adding strawberry plant and another flowery plant. Friend hasn't been at there home for a while so yard got a bit over grown, husband helped whipper sniper his yard for him. Just good when friend can look at their yard and think nice, instead of arg is there a snake in there lol.

Just sharing some poems I did, I joined a poetry group to write a poem each day of January but think joined late, but yeah decided to just write anyways. I enjoy writing and keeping the passion alive. These are not pro poems and maybe short or long, just playing with words. If you like writing, why not try write a month of poetry too :D

Christmas tree

Christmas tree is still up.

To good to pull down,

But the job is done.

The joy it spread

The memories it brought.

The treasures that hid

Beneath the tree,

Not quite hid, but bulged out.

But now empty and still glitters.

Standing tall with pride for the joy it gave.

Now ready to be dismantled and packed

And be revived next year.

Ho, ho ho. Happy year year!

Clouds

Like silken white smoke

moulded in blue.

Soft to the sight.

If could lay peacefully on it,

Be soft as feather down mattress.

Horror Movie

Heart pumping.

Anticipation, fearful dread.

Why do I watch these.

Why be excited of fearful dread.

Wanting to hide.

What is the outcome?

Where is the freedom of fear?

Ahh the horror.

Biting finger nails.

Breathing short, held through moments.

Why in movies do they let them hurt them?

Kick their butt!!

Don't go there.

Who in their right minds, go there?

Ahhh end of movie.

One person lives or two.

Another movie ~ Next.

Joyful

Joy for no reason

Giggling light-heartedness.

This joy like chest bursting,

Sunshine my face,

Smiling like rays brightening me.

Hop, skip, to my step,

Like dancing and no music,

But music my soul springs to life.

Enthusiastic peace, content.

Like connected to source of all creation.

One with the infinite nature of life.

Joy, like the energy that creates all harmony to life,

Giving balance.

All things brightened, sparkling, clear.

Like silver lining has always been,

With you.

Its all in your view.

It starts with a smile.

It starts with you!

Sent love

Oh my heart.

Though heart acheth

Of friends shared suffering.

A longing to help,

To heal.

But far, am I.

Thoughts do count.

Shared words of condolence.

Wishing peace, sending love.

Not knowing more to do but prayer,

To see them happy,

A wish for the future.

Two poems still to write but another time.
