Hi Penny,
You are such an encouragement to me. I, too have struggled with my weight my whole life. My issue is hypothyroidism..Hashimotos. I have made some serious diet changes which include gluten free. Wheat and soy are in everything so it is difficult as those are my main sensitivities. I have recently researched blood type diet foods and am incorporating it with gluten free. I feel much better. I actually feel there is some sense to what I have tried to do. You are wonderful to have this thread. Be encouraged... |

But a Whisper Near a Gasp This Muse, Far and Away is deaf, surnamed Silence carved into the chest leaving pain to mute unfairly bearing no place for tears to succumb. Farewell carries a shield boldly ironic. Battle finished. Heart taken. Blind lives on. Tears dry. Rose fades, petals fall. And the wind...it will blow where it will caring naught for goodbyes. SadieLu ©2013 read it many times; I feel the pain. I wish I could pick on your poetic brain. Thank you, I am honored you would consider. |

Pardon Me If I Giggle
A tilt of her head she pointed her toes raised her arms twirled then bowed. Elegant Demure Graceful? Perhaps, though I never knew her that way. A spit of a lass? Nay! Ample she was. A wink and a laugh...my Mom. Apron covering her frock Arms capable to hold skillets and pots she cooked with or cradle a wee one close to her. Eyes twinkling of life. I grew with her love. Was taught unconditional, endurance and how to embrace change. My Dad? Well, they loved each other for more than sixty-one years. So, when I read about expectations for a well taken care of life...pardon me for giggling. All has been said, done, felt and thought of by now. There is nothing new under the sun... Rosey glasses in Denial Frames ain’t gonna change what is right in front of you. Truth is, it’s the heart that stays close. A soul language that defines deep inner beauty and worth. At least that’s what I think. So, with a wink and a giggle... I “Heart” You. love, s SadieLu ©2013 |

Mornin Y'all, Coffee's on and it has filled my little place with aroma and thoughts of everyone. I have come to realize just how special this place is that we gather together in...how miniscule a thread is, yet the far reach it has connecting us. Though I do not say this often enough, I cherish you all (especially the bulldog) and appreciate the time we spend. Pretty amazing...(especially the bull) fixed it for ya Yes, the Fix dreams are made of... You need to thank your lucky stars! [/qoute] carol needs to thank jagbird for the prayers! So Ese.where have you been? |

This piece begs the reader to become introspective. Its simplicity is what draws one to understand the questioning of the self's soul.

Fairy Tales Plain as the day on her face the night in her eyes, never far removed from bare knuckled presence. A fighter she attested. A survivor. Hard life clung to her cloaking what little soft allure she managed to retain. Vulnerable allowed when her arms wrapped around her little ones drinking in their sweet innocence awestruck by their bright eyes. Depended upon, she was. Embraced in the moment as they clung to her. Just as brief...they were gone. Her demeanor straightened. Sight changed to reflect task. She lived in the here and now where time could only be grasped as habit melded to routine. ...in the still dark, only pulse reverberated. Inhale to exhale deafening silent gasps awaiting rain to cool from the heat. Change would come immersing recognition once again like promises kept ...a given... Once upon a time when dreams could become. But that was a long, long time ago. SadieLu ©2013 I love this ((((( Sadie))))) and I love you Sherrie~ Oh Sherrie, we've held them, opened and bared our hearts to give them all of us. We've often second guessed ourselves wondering if we've done enough...for their dreams..holding back waiting for ours to come to fruition knowing how life is growing all of us. Thank you for thinking of me, loving me, accepting the little I can give back. You have blessed me...Sweet Sherrie. |

Rest
Taking their own sweet time, these little knobs protruding from bark covered extensions pose against gray, cloudy, birthing in the airy surround to azure spring. Wispy laces bursting verdant leaving soon to be forgotten surprises as the heat of summer seeds its complacency to bare once again our senses need for respite. Easily we give in to hoping for change, choosing to uncover it all in the shade of that secret place where only the few are expected only some are allowed. Hidden you might find me, waiting...perhaps SadieLu©2013 |
