day 343

cut flowers
.
in
winter whisper
sweet
nothings to my soul
scent of roses infusing the air
a gift
to brighten cold gray days
stirring gratefulness
for friendship
and new memories

I had a surprise delivery today. It was a holiday gift from my boss. A beautiful bouquet of cut flowers. It truly brightened my day. Made me feel appreciated and seen. Not even the rain could dampen my spirits. The fragrance of roses, carnations, lily of the valley, sweet pea, and daisies filled my room with sweetness.  Of course it is today’s glimmer.  

Much love, peace and sweet glimmers to you.

day 342

rating whores
.
the
polluted air
waves
are spilling into
dens and living rooms everywhere
the great
(in his own mind only)
D. T. has nothing
Important
to say…la la la

not listening here…silence is bliss

Welp…I heard that there was a presidential address this evening. My house is silent right now. I refuse to be counted as someone who watched or listened to his lies and vile blather. Ratings are something DT covets. I will not be tuning in. Nothing to see here…It’s little things I do to resist what is happening in our country.

And speaking of little things…here are a few hand crafted glimmers… wall and home decorations. Creating a glimmer to enjoy doesn’t make it inferior to glimmers that happen spontaneously in nature. All glimmers are worthy of a pause. Do you have a favorite thing that brings you joy? Happy Glimmers to you,

Much love, peace, and glimmers to you!

day 340

seeing red
.
blue
red-infused sky
dawns
in the aftermath
of relentless news of hateful acts
empty
thoughts and prayers rise like ash
with barely a spark
to keep from
turning the sky gray

Sorry to have missed posting a glimmer yesterday. I hope you were able to find a few of your own. The incessant news from over the weekend… murders, school shootings, anti-Semitic terror attacks and mass murder across the globe, and our leader in this country showing what a vile monster he is in the aftermath set me back a bit. I had no words.

I woke this morning to a beautiful sunrise, barely making it outside in time to capture it before the sky faded to gray.  That’s kind of how today’s poem emerged. 

The thing is, I did manage to take a photo. It showed me that there are glimmers to be found even in the darkest times. It feels odd to celebrate them, to celebrate anything, but celebrate we must. We can’t let evil and fear shut us down. Enter glimmers, brief though they may be, to remind us. 

Much love, peace, and glimmers to you.

day 338

day’s fading 
.
but
the final word
falls
to the setting sun
with a reminder assuring us
that dawn
is promised, sure as dusk
time now to settle in
to dream dreams
to rest my spent soul

~kat

More glimmers of light to keep me through the night. light is not always bright and blinding. Sometimes it is muted, in varying shades. Sometimes it sparkles. Sometimes it is a flickering glint. But always it draws us to its warmth.

Much love, peace, and glimmers of light to you.

day 337





blue velvet
sky
after many
days
of clouds, wind, and rain
heals the heart like nothing else in life
flowers,
people need poetry
and light to heal
remember…
darkness fades away

Blue skies after days of gray is such a wonderful glimmer!

Much love, peace, and glimmers…and sunshine to you.
