I always wonder what inspires other people. One person’s inspiration may come from reading a book, poem, or even coming across a quote. Another may be inspired by music, the sound of children’s laughter or silence that encourages reflective thinking. No two people are inspired in quite the same way – it is as unique as the sound of your laughter. Different things inspire me on different days… for now, I remain aroused by the beauty and newness of beginnings. Flowers and new blooms.
Words have some degree of inadequacy
When I gaze upon your loveliness
You speak without saying a word
Or maybe a few, if perchance
There are whispers of the heart and love
My love, my love
How could I deny you
The first chance of the season
To make it all right
Once again
The petals of my soul burst forth in bloom, for there is no other meaning to a flower than to show its sunshine. What would it look like if we felt that way, letting go, seeing where our heart may flower? Predictable and true, right where you stand, or another garden of life, far and away from where you stand.
You are so beautiful. Can't you see?
In that place of love
The one perceived
It matters not, what you believe
The story fits in a layer of truth
In the pages of strength, to give and receive.
And then
I have to wonder
Why logic is no answer for passion and all the while
I wrap my heart with a ribbon of desire.
Beauty can never be judged objectively, although
Everything has beauty, but, not everyone can see it.
All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand. Oh, yes. Still by hand. It has a different feel. Altered not by keys, backspace, and delete, I write, erase, tear it to pieces and start all over again. And again.
It’s my way. I walk out to the deep end of the page and dive right in.
The Naming of Cats
The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
It isn’t just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I’m as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.

Thank you so much for the repost @pixresteemer. Much appreciated.
So beautiful poem☺☺☺
Thank you so much for your kind words.
Your welcome☺☺☺
The most enduring truth cannot be spoken. Amazing work, Denise:)
Good morning from here!
Thank you so much, Beauty. There are days that words are so inadequate, and I can only feel them. I could not believe at the break of day, there were clouds and perhaps some rain. On a Wednesday! How dare they!
We have some sun ... here is some for you:)
Bless you. :))
The petals of your poetry make souls bloom!
I am inspired by seeing people try and fail and grow and succeed. Being a December baby, I grew up with a little underdog complex so seeing every individual become a warrior and take life on inspires me.
Who knew a blockchain could do that too?
Thank you so much for your always kind words.
You are totally right! I have to agree, I have never seen a place where you can literally show up as an underdog and become a superhero. It's true and I am delighted to see each person is on level ground. That is probably the most inspiring of all. The equality that it can be.
I never thought that a blockchain could be anything like this. Thanks for stopping by and leaving your words @zekepickleman !
Oh yes it really is the season! New beginnings are so exciting with the freshness of learning and discovery! You use the language of romance so well, but I am only able to describe the feeling as twitterpated. :) Great shots as well Denise!
Bambi! Actually, it was Thumper that told Bambi about being twitterpated. I forgot all about the word, but, it is perfect for this time of year.
New beginnings are always exciting and the freshness of spring is a good place to start. Maybe after Friday, I think we are going to have a spring setback tomorrow! Yikes.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving your words and the awesome support. Have a great night!
