I am not writing today…it is spend with very special friends to honor the month of October and all of those who have lost the battle…
Some days there won’t be a song in your heart. Sing anyway. ~Emory Austin

constant taunting stars
eternally shining above
meander in this barren land
inquiring where my heart is
trying to find a hollow tree
flawless and untouched
new home to my memories
I bend and grasp my soul
no more turning to dust
rising from my ashes
as the phoenix rises
prevailing my own race
pursuing the vague
trail of the moon

IF
Posted in Fiction, POETRY, Random on October 14, 2010 by buttercup600I have another one of those busy weeks, seems the closer to year-end, the more busy it gets. I will be back posting recipe’s as from next week again. (Not even enough time to cook a proper meal…now there has to be something wrong with that, don’t you think??) Big hugs xox
Follow a dream
catch that shooting star
because I want to love
and to be loved
I am a dreamer
to dance without music
make my heart sing a song
laugh in a sea of sadness
I want to get lost in a dream
waking up every morning
trying to hold onto that dream
I want to love
and to be loved
I hope to dream again
and will always be
a dreamer

TO A PRINCESS
Posted in Emotions, Family, Friends, Life, Musings, People, Random, Reflections on October 13, 2010 by buttercup600
I just could not keep this to myself…for weeks I have been waiting for a certain parcel to arrive from someone VERY special in South Africa…from experience I know that it can take forever and every single day I have been listening if the “Postie” on his scooter would actually slow down and stop….about 2 hours ago, as I was talking on the phone, I heard a knock on the door, instinctively knowing what it was all about!!
My day is filled with the brightest of sunshine, as this is the best present I could ever wish for!! I am smiling from ear to ear and thank YOU, young Lady, for making me smile and so very happy. From the very beginning I knew you where very special…and forever you have that special place in my heart…thank you so much!!
I have a notice board in my kitchen where I keep everything that’s very important and dear to me…know that your place is set forever dear one..give hugs to your Mom 
Dedicated to ONE very SPECIAL Princess…GIVE YOURSELF CREDIT I love you Chelsea and Cindy oxoxoxox
Rules of love?
Posted in Emotions, Musings, POETRY, Random, Reflections on October 13, 2010 by buttercup600
conversations
expectations
immerse
emanate
put at ease
fact or deceit
face to face
eye to eye
mouth to mouth
the canvas changes
what to believe
who to trust
friend
enemy
lover…
the rules of love?

Angels Fly
Posted in Emotions, Musings, POETRY, Random, Reflections on October 12, 2010 by buttercup600
alone in the shadows
of eternal stillness
on my journey of life
in fragile dreams
stretched out forever
in the light of angels
as they gently whisper
I search for answers
beneath and beyond
Utopia of hope
a moment in time
as I spread my wings
and begin to fly

Pyramids of silver ( for Poetry Potluck)
Posted in Emotions, Musings, POETRY, Random, Reflections on October 11, 2010 by buttercup600
slow evolution
of muscular peaks
earth meets the sky
and butterflies dance
in a forgotten valley
a landscape of dreams
so majestic and tall
hiding secrets
in untamed glory
of you and I
we walked the shore
my shadow and I
untrammelled beauty
white crescent of beach
crashing waves thunder
in a pyramid of silver
her carpet of blue
lonely desolation
in majestic thoughts
of you and I
