In a field lies the remains of a giant of yesteryear.
A story is revealed by what they held dear within their roots.
To know their story in full, look above, around and beyond.

This is my castle,
A house where the wind lives,
Where the rain visits & cries,
Sloping floors & mouse scurry,
Ghosts & creaking stairs,
This is my castle,
I have papered the walls with love,
Sewn laughter over the cracks,
Filled it with dreams,
That even the wind can’t deny.

I am in my nest,
Of quiet and sleeping cat,
Slippers and blanket,
Tea and poetry,
Thoughts gathered,
Before the day arrives,
Calm before storm,
Peace in my heart.

Behind the rains, the sun’s still shining; and no cloud, can halt the dawn.
Beneath the earth, roots are growing; and a spring, must follow snow.
In your heart, there’s blood still flowing; and so hope will, carry on.

Fragrant Morning Snow
A silent morning snowfall reveals something unexpected.
One whose strong fragrance announces their presence for all to know.
Let us clear a path unimpeded and allow them to pass!

Thanksgiving arrives here today,
but gratitude belongs to all of us.
In every place where dawn reminds us
we’re still part of something larger than ourselves.

You were meant to dream,
Not merely to live,
To hope and wonder,
Not merely to be,
To love and be loved,
No matter the hurt,
Stardust and heart,
You were meant to shine.
