List 30 things that make you happy.
I have stopped punctuating
My text messages. Periods
No longer enclose thoughts
Thoughts run on expecting
Collisions with new thoughts
Avoiding the expectations
Exceeding them Renewing
What can be said or heard or
Read Reading more into my
Expectant effusions Effusing
Effusively enthusiastically
Describe one habit that brings you joy.
Joyful am I and gratitude fills
My heart with awe and with
Appreciation. It's joyful noises
That I make in a burst of awe.
Applause is how I show my
Appreciation for the grace of
Performance done well and
To the opportunity to witness
Your craft, your skill, the talent
You have brought to turn an
Ordinary day into an art-filled
Joy-filled, heart-hugging event
What are you curious about?
You, you have caught my attention
And piqued my curiosity. What is it
You do? Why are you going so fast?
Is there a race in your mind to which
I remain uninvited? Where is it you go?
Are you in a hurry? Silly question.
You are. Speed slowed automobile
Development. It was a distraction.
Are you distracted? Am I? Why so
Fast when slow will get us there too?
What are you curious about?
As I got older, I was forced to go
Slower, slow can be fast enough
If slow let's us see the trees for
The forest, the forest for what it
Is. Slow down the song advises,
You move too fast, it says. Wise.
The Beatles I think. Wise advice
For the wisdom of age. Time is
To be explored. As we get older
We have less of it and more of it
Too. Curious. Go slow see more
Seymour, you should be more. Be
There soon, or sooner or later. Is
It soon enough to go slow but
Fast enough to see all we need
To see to learn to witness to be.
Slow can be fast enough If slow
Let's you see the forest, the trees
And let's you stop let's you be.
So extra succulent that it drips
Down your arm and into the sink.
Juicy summer sweet fruit gets
Better with each hot month as it
Passes from mid May to August.
I am a big fan of luscious peaches.
Their cousins, the nectarines are
Tarter, with a distinct personality,
And lovely but hardly ever as full
Of juice and, being tart not so very
Sweet. A nectarine will not drip its
Summery spirits down your arms.
Your peaches will bathe you in the
Aromatic tastes of a summer's day.
Was today typical?
One man's or woman's typical
Is atypical for another. A pickle
That's what it is, figuring out
The ins, outs, or what it's about.
Typical is inimical to rah rah ha!
Typical cries out ho hum and ba!
Hum drum is typical. Ordinary is
Atypical or a typical day. A quiz
Will whiz by in a blink if you can
Say any day is an ordinary one.
Today was typically atypical to
Me. How was it, friend, for you?
How would you describe yourself to someone?
Silly putty smarty pants
Bright star hidden moon

Things at different times
Cloud nine and on a timer
Timed out and tuned in
Silly willy nilly but sharp

If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go?
Destination is fate.
Is it? Destiny takes
You only so far. How
Far do you want to
Take it? Where are
You destined to go?
If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go?
Dreaming of distance
Hugging the air patterns
Emerging places to go
Places to see places to be
Spirits take flight far away
Or close to home dreams
And hopes fly high places
To be seen dreaming of
Distance hugging the air
Tamara, really
