'Excuse me, would you mind? I'd like my breakfast in peace. You can run along blondie with your thingamajig.'

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme chosen by @robcrank68.bsky.social is #BranchingOut, any bird standing/sitting on a branch.

Often after a loved one dies, they are remembered not really how they were, instead they are viewed through 'rose tinted glasses'. I try to ensure my memories of my deceased ones are authentic. Everyone is different.

Holds portrait of the long dead
Paint yourself alive

I look not for answers so to judge
myself faultless, rather I seek to
understand the me I am, accept
my flaws, embrace mystery,
conceding answers are only the
start of the getting of wisdom

With my darling fella now in the mysterious beyond, I often wonder what actually remains of us when we die. While he's not constantly on my mind, and life is good, I do ponder at times whether I'm forgotten. Then I'm given a sunset.

The gentleness of early morn light
entwines around particles of newness,
goosebumps of delight skip upon
exposed surfaces, wooed
by warming attention ……
life in its simplicity isn’t bewildering
#Poetry #ECK #Dawn #Clouds #Simplicity
Upon life’s ever changing seas,
let not circumstances overwhelm,
rather, keep your focus on the 'unlit signal',
integrity, compassion, empathy, justice, love,
which echoes its direction through
dark storms and sunny skies,
for it will at all times direct your course

Sometimes when strolling through a capital city's lane, not all is as it seems.

Fingers of dawn cast
light into a new day, oceans
quiver, winds swirl, clouds
scatter, earth hold’s her breath
in anticipation, the miracle is not
that it is light once more, rather
that our eyes behold it

Firey, amber dawn
Banishes the chilly night
The sun espies all
