Summer’s Shades Of Love

You’re exceptional in every way
For you I open like a flower 
On a warm summer’s day
Passion burns like fire
Pretty shades of red
Blooms with desire
Like a sun’s caress
My heart possess

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Summer – Fire

“After Spring we move into the active time of Summer.  This is the energy of Fire, the time of activity, warmth, movement, growth and relationship.  Nature itself is moving, the plants are growing, animals are getting ready to produce young and things are busy.” ~5 Elements of Nature

Your Lovely Heart

Let me through the gate of your lovely heart
Where this garden lays sweet with blooms
Forever together we shall be, never to part
Happiness, joy and love filling up the rooms

And if by chance we are torn ussunder dear
Remember that nothing can keep us apart 
As we are held by love that draws us near
Forever I’ll hold a key to your lovely heart©

Moving Forward

I love the theme this week for Dutch Goes The Photo’s Tuesday Photo Challenge: Moving Forward. In lue of the time change (daylight savings) effecting most of us here in The States, comes the idea of time and moving forward. One of my favorite things to photograph is clocks and clock towers. So, taking the literal sense of time, here are some captures I took just this week in Georgetown, SC. What a great little historical, harbor town. I’ll have more to come, but hope you enjoy these few takes.

New Beginnings

“Spring is the beginning of the season cycle, a time of birth and new beginnings. It is also the energy of the element Wood.

This is the energy that brings forth new growth, that pushes the new grass through the snow, the new branches out from old wood, produces new leaves. It does this so nature can take in the nourishment it needs to flourish.”  — 5 Elements of Nature

My Lost Property

Reflective by Mac©

I’m feeling something’s gone in me, but don’t know what it could be
And yet my heart is still all in tact, don’t know then what it is I lack
Often it seems to be very hard to cope, maybe I have lost all my hope
But my soul is surely in its place, and a smile is still across this face
Found my mind and it seems hazy and yes it’s even a wee bit crazy
Maybe I’ll not find my way, I could give up, look again another day
But on and on I’ll search some more, coming to this peaceful shore
Up to the water’s edge and take a look, realized that I have mistook
Many things my reflection shows to me, finding who I’m ment to be
In the search to find what’d been removed, I realized I’ve improved
So if you find my lost property, will you please let it go and set it free

Round And Round

by Mac ©

I sit on the ride and around I turn
Passing images go past me blured
Up and down or round and round
Never knowing where I am bound
Life goes by, the music keeps going
Am I the driver or with it flowing?
Never slows down, never lets up
I ask to get off, may have to jump
Putting on a smile so do all the rest
Ahead’s unknow, hope for the best
What’s a remedy for being unsure?
Life is a ride, letting go is the cure!

Happy Spring

“The sun just touched the morning;
The morning, happy thing,
Supposed that he had come to dwell,
And life would be all spring.”

The Dunes

“Let my toes teach the shore
how to feel a tranquil life
through the wetness of sands

Let my heart latch the door
of blackness, as all my pain
now blue sky understands”
― Munia Khan
