But not for long.
This stretched-out journey of change
has curved my path
down unexpected realities
that are blessed in memory with abandoned
yet
unforgotten destinations.

ReplyDeleteJoyeux noel mon cher ami! I hope your holidays have been & will be all you wished for. I have been on some unexpected journeys the past several years. Visiting beautiful glorious Paris (my life long dream), finding my husband's first born son & battling health issues. I have experienced & learned many many things through it all. I have opened my blog again to post some simple things to start and see where it goes. I think of you often dear Anita. I hope you are loving life and doing amazing things!
ReplyDeleteBisous, Sherry - Edie Marie's Attic
I'm thrilled to be able to leave a comment because I so adore your blog and while I fully understand why you can't post the way you did before and SO understand the dreams that take you away from us, I am always elated when you reappear because I miss it so -- all the beauty, magical words, evocative photos. So Merry Christmas, my friend, albeit it a day or two late! I hope it was spectacular!
ReplyDeleteChère Anita,
ReplyDeleteDe retour chez nous à l’esprit ouvert et le coeur chaleureux,
dans ton monde d’images douces et de poésie splendide…
J'espère que ça va bien dans ton petit univers
et je te souhaite la réalisation de tous tes rêves en 2018...
And still write for me
sweet poetry
when the sun at the horizon
in its eternal embrace
kisses the sea...
Islands we all are …
Islands in an ocean of space ...
Sometimes we drift apart ...
Sometimes we touch each other …
Dear greetings…

J'étais emprisonnée depuis longtemps dans un "glaçon" où les poètes doivent apprendre...brin à brin, mes craints cèdent à la force qui existent dans mon coeur. Brin à brin, j'arrive. Merci d'être venu m'accueillir.
A very Happy and Blessed Holiday Sweet One....hope your 2018 is Magical!
ReplyDeleteMagical, Anita. Beautiful images and words. I don't spend much time on Instagram, so it was very nice to see your blog post and experience your talent once more. May the new year find you basking in God's blessings. Hug, Nancy

Have a glorious 2018,

Well, at least we get to share on Instagram! So fun seeing all of the beautiful work you do! Makes me yearn for spring. We just got dumped on last night, but I had fun running the snow blower. I felt so blessed to be able to help out neighbors who can't do it, or shouldn't do it. And we need the snow pack to fill up our reservoirs for the summer water. But I really did enjoy warm January and February!
ReplyDeleteAnd, LOOK at how many comments you have ! YOU ARE loved for certain. BEAUTIFUL composition of the photo "Girl with Dog" love it love it love it !!
ReplyDeleteGood to see your latest post...
ReplyDeleteOh I've been gone for maybe a year too
but keeps coming back.
Love your pics
and your endearing words ♥
