“To be or not to be” Certainly a question today for us all To be honest? To be followers of the truth? To be kind to each other? To choose unconditional love for our planet? To be one for all and all for one? To put some time into thinking mindfully? To pay attention to each other more than the apps on our phones? … Continue reading “To be or not to be”

What is your Love Philosophy? I will share my poem later this month. Love’s Philosophy The fountains mingle with the river And the rivers with the Ocean, The winds of Heaven mix for ever With a sweet emotion; Nothing in the world is single; All things by a law divine In one spirit meet and mingle, Why not I with thine?- See the mountains … Continue reading A Poem A Day #5

One thought dripped down reluctantly, into the vast and lonely sea of forgotten thoughts. As it sank into oblivion and fused with notions unconfined, it believed it would be accepted at last, but it was not. It succumbed along with deep thinking, proposed in silence, stillness and solidarity. Philosophies never noted nor known by great thinkers. One thought that could have been a contender, comprehended … Continue reading One Thought
The background is an acrilyic painting I made recently on a whim as I was thinking about creativity. Continue reading Creativity
QUOTE TO LIVE BY: “Life is no brief candle for me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got for a moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to a future generation.” -George Bernard Shaw Continue reading A Quote To Live By

Poemattic was recently nominated for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. It made feel my blog had a purpose. I started thinking about the concept of inspiration and asked myself a very simple question: What is inspiration anyway? Where does it come from? Is it a process or a random spark of something that fires up the heart and brain simultaneously? I wonder. Many things inspire … Continue reading What is inspiration anyway?
Essential question: Will we be ready? Ready for what? To be who we are supposed to be. Response: What do you mean? I am who I am. I am who I am supposed to be. Rationale? We are suppose to be a seed, to breed love unconditionally. We are suppose to be a dance, choreographed with perfect movements, creating expressions of deep empathy, and the … Continue reading Will We Be Ready?
Oneness when I think of oneness my mind conjures up all sorts of images and words to describe it like: only one, not two, only you, unique, individual, just me, just you, one spirit, the universe, the whole, but also a part of the whole, all of us somehow connected. Original, one being, or even not being, only one life, only one … Continue reading Oneness

“Occasionally I am reminded that perhaps I should write a poem.” This statement prefaced a poem written by my daughter in an email she sent the other day. She has been writing poems since she was quite young. I want to share it with you. Words with others like it to clear the mind and feed the rest. Words hidden under a … Continue reading “Occasionally I am reminded that perhaps I should write a poem.”
Life is a cycle. The Universe teaches us this fact. Everything is a measure. an inch, a foot, a meter, an acre, a knot, a score, a chain Everything has a shape, an identity mostly unique, Each beautiful in its own way, specific to the eye of its beholder subject to change without prior notice, We all age some of us with grace as we … Continue reading Life’s Cycles
