on a clear day
The finished poem from the random voice-note recorded on the walk the other day.
“An unhurried sense of time is in itself a form of wealth.”
― Bonnie Friedman Original source
p.s. I'll be back to read some of your poetry in a bit. Some mist is coming in and I don't want to miss Today. But I know some of you know me by now and I don't need to tell you this anymore. See you in a bit 💜
How do I make them remember?
How do I make them remember me?
How do I ask them to help me remember?
How do we remember how to see?
On a clear day I see
the lying eyes
behind the frozen smiles
On a clear day
I see
my country sinking
On a clear day
I stop
and talk to strangers
On a clear day
I see
my thinking
On a clear day
I see
my Shadow
walking beside me
like the friend it’s always been
On a clear day
the mountains look inviting
On a clear day
I’m already on the peak
On a clear day
my silence is decided
On a clear day
I find it easier to speak
On a clear day
I take my time to keep on moving
On a clear day
I fall down on my knees
On a clear day
it doesn't really matter
On a clear day
I have everything I need
On a clear day
the music sounds familiar
On a clear day
it’s easier to Be
Hardened Dreamer
Mother
Peaceful Warrior
Determined Dancer
and Stargazer
still...
Beyond fear is freedom
And there is nothing to be afraid of.
To Life, with Love... and always for Truth!
Nicky Dee
I find this most striking; mixed with the agony, frustration, and a strong will to let go; to FREEDOM.
Thanks. Oh you :)
You got it ;)
It's both depending on what perspective you choose to take
Happy Monday! Wheeeeeeeeeee *yawn #whoneedssleepanyway #insomnia
Sending love ❤️
Perception is a chaotic thing, parties involved never get settled on what's right as both are right in their senses. What a mess it is! Staying neutral might be better, either everybody wins or loses. How's that?
Hmmmm... nah.
Then the shitheads keep being shitheads.
And we ALL lose, really.
this can't be avoided.
One impacts one person, impacts a whole community, society and the world.
Really. It does. #thebigpicture
I do wish we humans would wake up and understand this already? 🙄
It's not the "isms" that are the real problem, you see.
It's the behaviour.
I'll demonstrate this better in the book I'd like to write some day. Because it's complicated. Yet so very simple!
But basically... the only thing that is "right" is "truth".
And anything we avoid getting involved in that isn't "right" - even by ignoring it - ends up in pain and chaos and acrimony.
You can't fix anything by avoiding it.
You can't come to mutual compromise by avoiding conversation. And pretending things are fine creates more acrimony in the long run.
The basics 👆
#aweh #awehness #theelephantintheroom
If you stay neutral when harm is occurring you enable and perpetuate. So nope. Sadly.
Neutrality is avoidance.
I would say keep your feelings neutral while things are addressed! :D Then you can avoid acrimony and, possibly, find solutions.
Hear! hear!
Now that you've said it all, literally from every possible aspect, I should take a break cause you know, you said it all. But I'm not taking a neutral position here, just accepting the superiority of your knowledge and experience.
Oh good lords and ladies no. Please don't!

Thank you, M :) Have a great start to the week.
I hope you got some rest this weekend, mama
Weekend and rest? They are always full of activities
At least, I am never bored hahaha 😂
I wish I had time to be bored :|
I hear you, mama! Boy do I hear you! ❤️
Thank you... 🙏 somehow you heard my thoughts when I was walking next to you (hearing those voice notes)
...if that mist comes always remember that you have the sun inside you.
Thank you, lovely lady.
Hmmm... I've walked in the mist before. That's also pretty wonderful!
p.s. you make it easier to remember.
Happy Monday ☺️
Well, I didn't say it doesn't have its charm. 😅
Happy Monday to you too 🌻
Me parece un paseo de la imaginación en un espejismo. Qué buen poema. Así lo percibo. Gracias por compartir.
Thank you :)
I translated this but I think some of the poetry in your comment may have been missed by Googley Google :|
How interesting and inspiring and now it makes me wander and wonder further! <3
Wish I knew Spanish. Still haven't started this one.
Interesante.
Mucho gracias :)
On a clear day, I will keep reading powerful poems like this.. This is just wow
Thanks, David
Appreciate your support. I'm don't think I'm much of a poet.
But I do really love poetry :)
Glad it resonated with you 🙃
You are doing so great.
Just accept the fact that you are a poet cause your poetry is amazing.
:)
Thank you, dear one
Have a lovely day!
Amazing piece…It’s so clear✨
It was... for a moment :D
And then the mist came in again :|
But that's also fun to walk in so...
Happy Monday, T
Yes, clear days, especially when the people and environment around you are clear too, are nice!
The bestest ever.
Stay you :)
❤️
Simple and very powerful. That clear day (state) we all want to fully embrace and absorb as much as possible. Love the rhythm. Beautiful.
Thank you :)
Yeah... we need more of those days, I reckon.
I hope you're having one today
