day 374

Sometimes a glimmer is a cold dark night, the crescent moon, and a few minutes away from everything to take it all in and to breathe.




Much love, peace, and glimmering moments to you ~kat ✨✨✨💚💚💚✨✨✨

…and a little poem too


plot twist

change changes
direction…dreams fade
don’t look back

day 372 ~ they’re back!

forgiven
.
crows
remember a
face
and are known to hold grudges for years
it broke
my heart when a crow died
close to the feed tray
filled with treats
the other crows watched

and it seems held me to account
as they mourned, I mourned…they stopped coming
my beloved murder…held a grudge
against me
I feared, but
they are back
trust is a gift I do not take
unmindfully
may the healing begin

An extended pi-sequence poem (3.1415926535 8979323846) that tells a story and highlights my glimmer for today. I took a chance to reach out to my beloved crows who have shunned me like the plague all these months. I feel forgiven…not generally a thing crows do lightly. It makes me so happy on this gray day!

Much love, peace, and glimmers to you my friends!

Day 366 – a glimmer

Couldn’t let this day end without sharing a glimmer or two.

These guys came to wish me a good morning. And the afternoon sun was a beauty.

Much love, peace and glimmers to you. I might muster up a poem for you tomorrow. Breathe…be kind…and stay safe!

my friends don’t say much
but oh, how faithful they are
as faithful as dawn

365 days of glimmers

It was a daunting challenge. Find glimmers and write about it for 365 days. There were a few days missed to the business of life, but I pressed on. My goal 365 posts, even if it dipped into the new year. Which it did. And then last week as I was nearing the end of the challenge, I realized that I would be finishing today…1/11 which falls in 2026…”1” numerically speaking…and it just so happens that my birthdate adds up to the master number of 11. There are a lot of 11’s in this scenario…and trust me when I tell you I did not plan this! But needless to say 11 has always been a special number to me.

What a serendipitous denouement to a glittering year…one that tested our hearts, souls, patience and resolve in ways we never imagined. But here we are. Armed with the assurance that we made it. May we continue to press on with kindness, compassion, and truth.

I thought it would be appropriate to end this year in a ReVerse taking a line from each month from one of the poems that got the most “likes” for that month. In essence I am letting you all help me write the last ReVerse poem of this past year…

365 days of glimmers

vengeance in the wind
touches my heart and soul deeply
days feel longer
deceived, a blink, a nod, and evil wins
the quiet murmur
will not deny that we exist
there is a whisper of light
piercing through the stained glass
a time to harvest…to let go
strong, full of life,
in the light of the sun
to dream dreams

~kat

We did it together! Made it through a crazy year and lived to tell. I love how this ReVerse started with trepidation but ended on a high note! Thank you my friends for helping me craft the perfect look back over the past 365 days. 😊

Much love, peace, kindness, and glimmers to you. So many glimmers. May the coming year be one of serendipitous moments and continued glimmers to keep you!

And a look back at some of the year’s glimmers…

Humor often helps in the most serious of times. Today we remember a day most Americans will never forget. Five years ago DT called his band of thugs to Washington and after stirring them into a frenzy sent them to the capital to interrupt the peaceful validation of the election of Biden as the next president. We all saw it. We watched in horror as an angry mob desecrated the grounds, and called for the execution of the vice president and madam speaker of the house. They went so far as to erect gallows and mow down law enforcement officers who tried to stop them with flagpoles, and other makeshift weapons.

Over the years the republicans would like us to believe that this was a peaceful demonstration…their constituents merely touring the capital. But no amount of doctored, rewritten history will change what we all witnessed. Five years later Trump is back in office, angry, vengeful, unstoppable in his determination to amass as much power and riches for himself…that is, as much as the congress and the courts will let him steal. At this point they’ve invited him into the vault and told him to clean it out. The people of this country be damned. The presidency is a means to an end for him and his ilk. It appears we are heading into another year of chaos worst than the first.

On another note…one of our mystery snails crossed over to the other side…but not before leaving a cluster of eggs to help keep our aquarium clean. I found it on the bottom of the tank the other morning, quickly intervened and set up a make-shift hatchery following instructions from YouTube. Whatever did we do before the internet?! Fingers crossed a few of them survive. Our tank like the White House is full of shit that needs cleaning up! What a timely glimmer. Nature truly does take care of its own!

Much love, peace, and glimmers to you! And baby snails. Lots of them we hope!

Isn’t it amazing!!!
