Articles And Intentions

Capture

The August issue of The Magic Happens came out yesterday. My article for this month is about intention. This has always been a debate in my mind as to whether or not our thinking, positive or negative, truly effects the outcome of our day-to-day lives, as well as the future.

It will always be a debate for me, but there is compelling evidence in favor of positive intention. Instead of re-writing the article here, I would very much like for you, my readers and friends to check it out. Find it...

Warmth

image

As if a poem were meant to be sad
Warmth and light from the sun dim
Seekers of light handily blotted out

We will all see to different degrees
Leagues of sentinels standing over
Making certain darkness stays out

Words as flower petals, tapestries
Light that is peeled from the soul
Reflect the seeds that we’ve sewn

We might have a reason to doubt
Wonder why it rains in spite of sun
Every day greets us with anything

The canvas of our dreams painted
In love given with no expectation
Awaiting the...

Guest Post by Neha of Forgotten Meadows

I have been reading Neha, author of Forgotten Meadows ,for around two years, and I have to say that her blog is among the most consistently beautiful and comforting. It is easy to tell that her poetry matches her nature as a person. Here is more insight as to who she is and how she makes it look so effortless. If you haven’t already, be sure to have a look around her blog. Thank you for sharing with us, Neha!

Apology

image

It may have landed on my lips
In the way it always does

Though fault eludes me
And blame divorced me

The standard in manners
Ever holding them high

Still there will be no sorry
We’re reading a different story

It may have landed on my lips
In the way it always does

Please accept this denial
As my most sincere apology

To Chase

image

The chase is a race for life
No ring and no promise can win it
The miles become millenia behind

But

Her heart is the same, it’s yours
Given, with no thought for second place
She only laughs at your blistering pace
