Just drifting sorts of thoughts

Oh I woke up with a whole new level of thinking going on today. It’s very interesting (to me, that is). Then my Buddhist Wisdom of the Day fit right in with it, which is always a lovely thing when it happens. Rarely is my thinking in alignment with Buddhist teachings. It gives me hope for me when I see that happen!

If mist clears
the soft rolling mountains
so rich in beauty across the way
reveal themselves to your visionary sight
that in the looking sees within
to the mountains’ very souls
for you know the pulse
the core of life there

The fog must lift
with the burden of strange pilgrim visitations
a singer of solitary tunes
but tone deaf
out of place and does the clock allow
for the woman in the mist
to dwell with you for a time
or must she recede as it leaves the day

I know I usually wander in AFTER I’ve done my entry, but I saw your entry on OD’s front page. With a warm smile…

We both awoke from journeys to strange and exotic places, it seems. 🙂

NOW I’m on a post-entry stroll through my notes. With a smile…

Good morning sweet poet *smiles* You’re more of a visionary than you give yourself credit for. Your poem today has beautiful resonance. Hugs and thanks

Interesting. Last night a phrase that kept coming to me was “watch the mountains.” Mmmmm

Such inner beauty and wisdom lovely lady

I actually wrote an entry asking if people knew where you’d gone to 🙁 I was so upset to have seen your beautiful name just vanished from my list, but I do understand. I’d love to post all my recent entries here, but I don’t feel safe with writing such personal stuff as I do on friends entries at ITW. I’m just wondering if there’s another website I can do it at… it’s so lovely to see you back

or even if you didn’t want to start a diary again at ITW maybe you could make just a blank one and I could add you to my friends list and you could leave me all private notes? I’m sure overtime everything will smooth out and we’ll find a way 🙂 Thanks so much for replying. I always wondered if my private notes were working here lol. And by the way what is your email addy? 😛

And again I get to see your beautiful poems 🙂 So lovely 🙂

out of the fog…i’m not sure my thinking is ever in allignment with Buddhist teachings other than the fact that it is thinking and can be labeled as such.
