Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
Pablo Picasso
My soul got rather dusty this week
The color scrubbed away by computer screens
and meetings
and clocks that crept at alarming speed towards deadlines
Yes....my soul got rather dusty this week
but it is Saturday
and Lyndon B Johnson said:
"Every man has the right to a Saturday night bath"
Really! He said that.
So I am exercising my right to a Saturday bathing of the soul
And I will only look at what is beautiful
And listen to only what is sweet to my ears
Yes....that is my plan for this Saturday.....right after I do the laundry
and that's poetiquejustis
"......a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of joy
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair."
instead of ashes,
the oil of joy
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair."
Isaiah 61:3
