Luxury!

So this is what I find strategically placed next to my bed. First thing I see every morning when I open my eyes. Remnants of our luxury dream holiday in April – dark chocolate and raspberry squares, courtesy Ghirardelli of San Francisco. (Because who doesn’t want to wake up to the sight of chocolate?) Well, I am no longer eating any, except for these ten squares being carefully rationed. Raspberry covered in dark chocolate. Hmmm, yummo. My luxury!

(I have five left, and being a meany and not sharing 😀)

Painting Angels

August 7, 2016August 7, 2016Vonita 72 Comments

If I could paint angels
I would paint angels surrounding me
I would paint all the souls I miss every day
Into life and have them here to stay
I would paint them from my heart
So they could be outside me
And I would never throw
The paintings
Away

Painted Butterfly

A lone butterfly
Sharing splashes of color
Against pure, clean white

Our Butterfly is
Ready to fly, spread your wings
We kiss you goodbye!

Place our butterfly where we would like butterfly to be

Clean the slate for our butterfly

As our butterfly appeared to be

Stubborn

I had stubborn fat –
Those cells that just refused
To budge

So I had them sucked out
And it was the best thing
I ever did

Praise

August 6, 2016August 6, 2016Vonita 21 Comments

I have a friend very close to me
Who wonders why it was meant to be

Why are we here? What is it for
Is there any reason to be here at all?

I do not know, there are no words
To justify why we are in the world

All I have is all I know
That I am glad for this moment now

To be alive and to be aware
To be a part of our world to share

So while we breathe – live in harmony
For each life forms the world’s company

Dogs and cats and humans too
Snakes and rats and a kangaroo

For without this life breathed into us
It would all be bleak, nothing to discuss

So let us praise, let us rejoice
Let us sing with a joyful voice

For this common force, the world we share
For our earth and pure magic air

Empty Promises

August 4, 2016August 4, 2016Vonita 28 Comments

It was romance I was after
Candlelight and care and love
Intimate moments
When eyes meet eyes
And skin touches skin
But all this world had to offer
Was emptiness and lust
And the craving for what should be
When what was held out
Was everything
That it was not
