Through the darkness ...

Am I stuck spiralling ~

Can I break the cycle ~

What should I be thinking ~

Is there a way to change ...

~

Moments can change my mind ~

Take each breath deeply ~

Find comfort in kindness ~

Seek possibilities...

~

Always looking for hope 🦋

Writing

Words

Glimmer

Woven 

Threads

Tumbling

To life

Ally's Voice

How do I find my voice?

Each word I speak

A grain of sand

Picked up on the wind

Lost in the noise

How do I find my voice...

Dreamscape

 

Sailing amongst a dreamscape Drifting gently upon each breath Hoping the sandman lets me stay

Hope is and can ...

Hope is a privilege 

Hope is a gift 

Hope is a tapestry

Hope flows and ebbs

Hope can be fleeting 

Hope can fade away ...

When hope vanishes

Hope turns to despair!

Changing minds and souls (word play)

Fingers of light stretch out 

Brightening the world 

Words mingle within our hearts 

Changing minds and souls

NOTE: While at a Pink Concert in Brisbane the following came to mind so I tweeted.  Now reposting https://twitter.com/ally_cat/status/1029702302985146368

Start again...

Lift me up
Break me out
Of my routine
Make this day different
Find a way to see
Something, anything
With new eyes

Then, start again...

Orange flower and bees

Taking moments Wonder in bees sitting still Upon gleaming orange petals Beauty captured

ANZAC Dawn

As we remember them

Wind rustles the leaves

As we remember them

Light wakens in the sky

As those words are spoken

We remember them

many moments glimpsed / thoughts, seemingly random - yet together they tell the story of a life: experiences and impressions expressed #poem 4 minute ago

• Gloom sets in / Strain my eyes looking for brightness / Beyond clouds that have settled upon my day. A glimmer of light smiles through #poem 11:00 AM Jun 19th

• -- Life -- Celebrate this day. Your birth was a gift to others: Birthdays are for you! #poem 5:08 PM Jun 18th

• Snow rests, hovering upon the trees / a gust of wind blows through / Then white floats upon the chill / Sweeping to the frozen ground! #poem 9:02 AM Jun 16th

• I now know the directions I will follow / And I have gone beyond the haze that has been hovering / Will you walk with me a while? #poem 4:15 PM Jun 10th

• Altering colours fade into the sky: Embers become grey-blue ash. The world's darkening, bruised skin / Sparkles with crystal flecks! #poem 8:38 PM Jun 4th

• Part 2: Those who tell you what to dream: Leave behind. Yet from them you will learn / Who will hold you & still help you take flight #Poem 8:24 PM Jun 4th

• Part 1 - Dreams are more than what you think you should have! Are beyond the reflection you see: Gifts that you can reach for! #poem 8:20 PM Jun 4th

• Cold night / bashful moon / white noise / falling through the frosted air / close my eyes, letting the rain send me to sleep #poem 11:42 PM May 21st

• A moment / life pauses / thoughts still - breath deep / Reflect, watch, take in / Sun's light, dancing leaves - take a moment / Smile! #poem 11:56 AM May 19th

• Guide to where? My inspiration's stuck / thoughts clogged by an uncertain, distant end / so many rambling processes & plans to map out #poem 4:55 PM Apr 22nd

• Prod my brain / where u at? Sleeping the day away; hiding within a haze; trying 2 grapple with intelligent thinking: yet finding none #poem 9:50 AM Apr 21st

Twittery: volume 1

Poetry amongst the tweets

Amongst random thoughts u see glimpses of the world that is my life's foundation / twittery is the sprinkling of beginnings & maybes

• numbers flicker past my eyes / chaos & problems not clear / though I see each 1 pass / I let myself drift / listening 2 passing sounds

• That world seems too distant to be real / this world drains & I wish its existence would stop / I want to be able to choose

• So much 2 play, learn, grasp / can time stop so I can catch up? / another day goes by / take in little x little / understand bout .01%

• & thus a very long day begins. Tap, tap: churn through so slowly that secs seem like mins. Ticking 1 wee task at a time. End scene...

• I see shapes within u / Hidden by rough edges: The potential 2 become / What I know u can be - I seek 2 carve away & reveal.... ???

• "life brings peace / once you know to fly on / the magic quilted from the universe." twittermagnets

• There are those / That seem to grow / Yet their mind is still / Playing childish games

I picture one day
questioning how we think,
for we can free ourselves
