Remind Me Why

Remind me why
We can’t be together
In flesh and blood
Togetherness
Side by side

Remind me why
When our hearts
Are apart
They still breathe
Together as one

Remind me of
Those sensible
Truths of reality
Within Reality
Where Souls abide

Remind me why
When We share the moon
We can’t share it
From a mutual
Place on this earth

Remind me why
Since circumstances
Are changing
We still must
Continue apart

Remind me why
I’m doing this work
To release the
Human Love
Of my Heart

Remind me that
You’ll still be
Within me as
You promised me
And I promised You

Reblogging this because dumb WordPress sets the publishing time for when I started writing, not finished. Duh.

Silence of the Hummingbird

Last night at dinner, teenage daughter had us in tears of laughter as she described her first experience of lemmings in a biology class.

These cute little Arctic rodents were shown in the biology class video to be jumping off a cliff in mass suicide fashion. The other girls in class were like “Awwwww”, while teenage daughter, being the perpetually eccentric child that she is, burst out laughing at the site.

“WHAT? What kind of survival mechanism makes you jump off a cliff?” teenage daughter asked through her laughter. Why was no one else asking that question?

The video purported that lemmings have an innate sense of overpopulation and some will sacrifice themselves for the sake of the group’s survival by high-diving off the nearest arctic cliff.

We had lots of fun trying to determine how the lemmings decide whose civic duty it is to suicide. Are they marked, like Damien from The…

My Sweet Honey Bee

Just wanted to share this here, too. Enjoy your day!

Silence of the Hummingbird

Where are You, Sweet Honey Bee?

You used to hover near

My flower, spreading pollen

Whispering love into my ear

Beds have long been dormant

Branches turned to wood

But deep inside, life pushes forth

To awaken all things good

I Believe (Get Over Yourself)

Sorry for the repeated post here and here. Just had to share this powerhouse voice and the inspiring lyrics. For You ~

Silence of the Hummingbird

I Believe (Get Over Yourself)
by Nico Vega

I was standing, in the corner
and you opted to come over.
You said “c’mon girl, join the party.
You look lonely”
and then suddenly I replied
I said,

I’m afraid of almost everything I’m not sure
what kinds of songs to sing and when I met you, you made me think
that I could be almost anything
that I could rise above it all endlessly
and you brought me back to life

I believe, I believe, I believe that this is
your life and it can move you
You believe that things are better when
left unsaid but you’re a fool cause you
don’t believe in anything good
it happened to the people it should
But I believe in you, so get over yourself.

Well no one, had ever spoken
to me like that
and yeah it kinda turned me on

Butterfly Bonsai Love Across Time

(By Hannah, a fifth grader)

Oh my! Today I am the happiest woman in the world!
Her Love for me is truer than true,
Willing to stand the test of time!
In letting me go, I know that She loves me!
I know that She knows the depths of my love!
Even as my heart is crying and tears are flowing,
I feel Her in my heart more than ever!

Ah, do you believe in other lifetimes?
If not, scroll on–you won’t comprehend
Such a love that reaches beyond human limits!
But, if you do, if you have a heart that
Understands, then you know
Such depths of feeling cannot be explained
Any other way but beyond what we see!

And so, one year ago, March 1, 2013
I began this blog of love for Her
Sometimes trying to release
Something I would never be able to
Other times expressing my love in words too weak
But here this love remains for all of cyber time!
A technological trigger of everlasting Love!

Some day, I will find these words again, some how,
Not as this self, but some other in time;
I will read them and cry as they touch my heart so
And think, “Wow! What love is there in this
Beautiful Love Story!”
And “I will wonder if I will ever find
A love like that for me!”

It will remind me of Her, how I must find Her again,
That I won’t be fulfilled until She’s by my side
Just Her and I with no obstacles after all this time!
It’s not that I’m crazy
(‘Though I’ve had my moments this week!)
Or mean to my husband or my family
It’s just that Our Love is just what It is!

“How could it be”, you ask?
“I don’t believe it”, you say?
Ah, how else did We find each other this time
Across 8,000 kilometers, orientation and marriage,
With so little time together, but such a big Love?
She is not “just some woman” to me,
Easy to move on from, to “just get over”.

She is the Love of my Soul
The Heart in my heart
The Joy of my inner life
The Beauty in my eyes
The Song in my ears
The Breath in my lungs
The Hand in my hand

Oh, I have work to do in this life!
I must love here and now
Accept the unacceptable of this lifetime
Be in joy with all who are before me
Forgive what needs forgiving
So all obstacles that have kept Us apart
Will be cleared away for good

And Our Love will be unimpeded, finally!
Finally to be cherished and lived fully!
Divine Soul, I will do my part
Pruning the bonsai, in all its beauty,
Small but powerful,
Knowing it is the keeper of
Our eternal Soul Love ~
