I will take my snacks in high-octane liquid form thank you very much steaming espresso lattes are my newest obsession

It’s the gift I didn’t know I wanted or needed, especially since I am a morning Earl Grey tea with sweet cream kinda girl. But oh my…my oldest daughter has convinced me! “You have to have an espresso machine!” she declared, gifting one to me several days later!
All I can say is bu-bye morning Earl Grey…my caffeine boost just went turbo-espress-o-la-latte!!!! I’ll see you, Mr Grey at tea time!
This may not be what most consider to be a glimmer…but every time I glance at it, it makes me smile!
Much love, peace, and espresso latte glimmers to you!
What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?
a long life . now that the kids are grown living their best lives with growing families of their own this nest has become so quiet now I have three cats a dog and a bird, named Bean the thought of living a long life surrounded by this menagerie leads me to wish simply this… may I live long enough to outlive every soul that still needs me

A pi-sequence inspired poem with the following syllable count by line: 3.14159265358979323
Today while preparing breakfast for my furry, feathered menagerie, my three cats, as they do every morning, gathered to encourage me to get on with it.
These three, who were not part of our plans, but chose us ( as they say ), and me, being the softy that I am, could not bear to leave them in the street.
The mom, Matilda, and two of her kittens, Frankie and Schrodinger (two other kittens were adopted by a co-worker…thank goodness!) are living the pampered life of a house cat!
I am increasingly aware that am getting older. Since our other cats lived long lives of 18, 20, and 23…I hope I outlive this trio. I am so grateful they showed up under my porch seven and a half years ago, They are lovely company. I suppose it’s silly. But can you blame me? Just look at those faces! May I live long so they can prosper! BTW…they are my glimmers today.

And a silly, deadly serious pi sequence poem…
poke the bear . and you’ll be sorry bears have left the woodlands they are roaming the neighborhoods now hungry… no one is safe…no one the gnome department has declared “do not poke the bears they possess free reign to pillage, to terrorize the citizenry” by order of the great pig, commander in thief, grand pooh-bah maga-phants declare allegiance

A crazy day…so many things hitting the fan inour world. How I love a red sunset to help me wind down.
Much love, peace, and dusky glimmers to you! It’s getting a bit messy in the light of day. I call it the storm before the calm. Be kind and remember to breathe. ✨✨✨💚💚💚✨✨✨
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

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!
