day 49

gentle visitors
emerge from the trees at dusk
grace before a storm

There is another s snow event heading our way. They name snow storms now you know. This one is named Kingston. He is carrying a ton of snow to our region. At least that’s the best guess of meteorologists. 

The name Kingston is old English and means simply, “the king’s town”. And a thought occurred to me and made me smile. We don’t have a king here. Not here in these foothills…not in this state…not in this country. Not yet anyway. But right here, right now, I have visitors who happened by. Graceful, beautiful  souls to remind me to go gently into this night. Come snow by dawn or not, Kingston is just passing through and spring is coming. Most surely, spring is in the wings.

Gentle peace, love and glimmers to you.

day 44 ~ no power, but not powerless

By Kat Myrman 
1-
born of magic
the breath of angels,
from stardust and poetry
to secret longing
the heart of a child

2-
people know no more
than they’re ready to believe
they’re special that way

3-
she had attitude
an impressive confidence
in her own coolness

and that’s a wrap
~kat






A trio of Magnetic Poetry poems. Night two of camping inside under layers of clothing and blankets. Tomorrow, they say, we can expect to regain the light.  

Peace, Love, and Warm Glimmers to you! Stay safe and warm my friends.

to do or not to do

much ado to do
and a list too long to count
honey do’s are due

~kat

Feeling silly today. I’m not sure what or why. There seems to be plenty of lunacy tonight.  There is snow on the way on the eve  of the full snow moon.  Serendipitous I say. ❄️😊❄️  And it would seem Mother Nature is making good on her agreement with Punxsutawney Phil to drag winter out another 6 weeks…whatever. I’ve got things to do or not.  

Peace, Love, and Glimmers to you!

TGIF

It’s Friday
Nine to five ends now
time to breath

~kat










Sometimes it really is the little things that matter most. Like today. It’s Friday, it’s payday…TGIF…I had several fellow employees repeat this sentiment to me throughout the day. We’re all hanging by a thread it seems. But little glimmers of this truth remind me that there is still so much to be grateful for. Grateful.…and celebrating the small stuff. No sweat! 





Peace, Love and TGIF Glimmers to you. Let the breathing commence!

a good rain

beautiful cool rain
drenching earth where seedlings rest
anarchy at bay

~kat










I love a good rain. The sound of it on my metal roof. The occasional lightening flash. The rumble of thunder. This morning gave us a good rain. Cool, cleansing, the air fragrant, smelling of wet soil and green. It was enough to help me forget, even if only for a moment, the chaos happening in the world. I needed a reason to celebrate today. 





We had a really good rain this morning. Spring is just around the corner. Nights are getting shorter, days are growing longer! Wow!!! I carried this joyful feeling with me as the day grew heavy. It helped to remember normal in moments of overwhelm. 





You may not be a fan of rain. But there is likely something that brightens your mood and lightens your step. Pay attention. Make a mental note when those glimmers grab you, and tuck that feeling in your pocket to keep you throughout the day. More than ever we need to celebrate every good thing and tiny victory. It’s a win-win especially when you feel like an underdog. 





Peace, Love, and Glimmers to You. Did I happen to mention this morning’s rain storm to you? Ohhh… it was glorious! 😊
