your life is a poem

Your life is a poem being written everyday by you ✨ 
may loving things like blooms in the daylight, bright moons at nightfall and bird chatter be always at your window.

✨ things to remember ✨
- we live in a world with birds
- we live in a world with books and berries that grow on trees ๐Ÿ’
- don't forget to water your plants
- don't forget to have water for yourself too ๐Ÿฆ‹
- sing like the birds do, just because
- put a flower in between a book to press it ๐ŸŒธ
- not everyday has a positive way to lean
- imagine tomorrow being better than today, it is quite possible

✨ What are your things to remember today? ✨

home sweet new home

 If you have begun to wonder where I have been — I return to you today.  My winter has been scattered with work and play, both of these have required a certain type of brain energy that leaves me very tired by midday. My November was twenty days away from home as I embarked on a songwriter tour from Alberta to British Columbia and back through. I saw the mountainside before and after an avalanche, I listened to the prairie wind howl, the sky-like space that rolls between each ocean wave, I sang for my supper, I sang for strangers, some of whom became friends. I visited nightly the notes between my lungs and guitar as if every broken moment was meant to lead me here.  If you asked me of the hardest hill to climb in doing such a thing, I would speak of how I missed the early morning coffees at home and the way thoughts have time to gather and conclude when you're not on the road. As you ride the highway, you think often, but you don't have the hours free to make much sense. You know as the wheels roll, you are on your way to a new town with new faces but you don't yet know what they will think of you and what you will be thinking when you fall to your pillow at night. 

You go on singing into the shining lights in a room you've never stood in before and it gives rise to both an uneasy and beautiful feeling like nothing else I have ever known. When I was young, I only dreamed but it seems lately these dreams have come true and I am required to pinch myself in order to believe this reality of mine. Sometimes, I feel like I am just singing into a jewelry box and one day when the lights go dim, somebody will jump out at me and say "wake up, you're still only dreaming.."
