It's Your Song

 

There is delight in singing, though none hear beside the singer

Walter Savage Landor

Singing alone

Singing a  duet

in a choir

Or out on a limb

It does not matter! 

If you have a deam

live it!

and if you have a song- sing it
 

Because somewhere inside of us all

there is a dream waiting to take flight

and a song

waiting to be free

and that's poetiquejustis

He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. 

Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.

Psalm 40:3

It's A Date

 

I have an appointment with Spring

H D Thoreau

I have appointment with new ideas...

And a fresh breeze of enthusiasm

A plan

I have a date with today

I have tomorrow in my sights

I have an appointment with

my Spring

You really should get up

and start looking for yours!

and that's poetiquejustis

For behold, the winter is past; the rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land. 

Song of Solomon 2:11-12

It's Magic!

 

Therefore trust to thy heart, and to what the world calls illusions.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Don't be afraid

 Follow your heart

Paint your world with all those things that only your heart knows are real

Illustrate your life

With the illusions of your heart

And your life will be real

And your life will be art

and that's poetiquejustis

I Corinthians 2:9 

But as it is written: 

"Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, 

Nor have entered into the heart of man 

The things which God has prepared

 for those who love Him".

Your Melody and Yours Alone

 

You can't change the music of your soul

Katherine Hepburn

You can change your hair

You can change your name

You can even change your  car

But the melody

That makes your heart sing

Will always be

Who you really are

Today...find your melody....

It is within you

and that's poetiquejustis

 Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord

Ephesians 5:19

Time to Spring Forth!

I would like to go climbing a birch tree

Robert Frost

It is Spring

I want to go barefoot

And skip stones in a brook

And pick butercups

I want to climb a birch tree 

And swing until I touch the sky

That's what I want to do

and you?

and that's poetiquejustis

 

Learning - That's What It Is Called

 

We are not what we know

but what we are willing to learn

Mary Catherine Bateson

We do not need to believe everything we hear

But we need to be willing to listen

We do not even have to believe our eyes

But we should never turn away

We do not have to accept what others say

But we do have to respect their right to say it

Being willing to learn 

is being willing to live

and that's poetiquejustis

Proverbs 1:5 Let the wise hear and increase in learning, and the one who understands obtain guidance,

 

Don't Be So Reasonable

Poetry heals the wounds inflicted by reason

Novalis

A world of concrete

Of glass and chrome

Of screens and gadgets

 

Where is the poetry?

Where are the lyrical moments?

They are still in you

but you have to

Set it free

and that's poetiquejustis

In my anguish I cried to the LORD, and He answered by setting me free.

Psalm 118:5
