Through the eyes of the poet

 

As they say, spring comes in like a lion and leaves out like a lamb. Imagine that this fits the image of a quiet person until boundaries are established, even when standing up to a bully, which digs deep into my skin. Like, a Mosquito to a Flea. Damn, bloodsuckers.
Venom is not sweet, and you certainly do not want it in your coffee or tea. So, why carry it on your tongue?
Mohammed Ali once said, "Float like a sting like a bee." His jabs certainly packed a punch. Imagine words flowing out just like that.
Some people just don't see things like that. Thinking logically in comparison with another. This is seen through the eyes of the poet, and perhaps words are easily expressed and deeply felt, similar to paint on a canvas.

Love is a chain reaction

This heart is never empty; love is continuously pouring in. Never take someone's love for granted, not even your own. Show what it means to be loved and to receive love. Love doesn't always mean romance. If you can draw an abstract painting of what love is, give that person the best expression because that same image is the same image you want to receive in return, not only for yourself. But you want to pour that same amount back into someone else's heart.
Love is a chain reaction, so paint this world with your beautiful hearts to drown out all the darkness we have all seen. And make this world what it should be rather than the hatred and bigotry.

Heart's Confession

    Are you here on Earth, my angel? And when we both hug, will it feel like we're both in paradise? I'm out here searching for my soul connection, a person who truly can understand me for me and accept everything about the person who I am.

Get to know my true nature on the inside. The exterior is only a cover, so appreciate what you see on the inside. We'll never make judgments based on that.

If we both hit a rock on this road, we'll be there for each other and guide each other through that rough time. We may not see eye to eye on everything, and that is okay. What matters first and foremost is the friendship bond that we must build before anything else.

If our hearts and minds lead us to express those deep feelings, say what you feel, and don't ever hold it in. Know that it will bring our friendship even closer. And even if the time isn't right, continue to hang in there for one another because you and I have already spoken our heart's confessions.

Let's D.A.N.C.E

     

    Let's take our minds in the direction of Alice and Wonderland. There is no magical pill to swallow; just simply close your eyes and imagine you are in a whimsical place built for dancing. Do you see the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter, or even Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum? Let's not forget the Cheshire cat, just to name a few. Grab their hands or paws and bring them along. And by the way, you are Alice in your imagination. Alice can be whomever or whatever you want. So, let's explore what it means to dance.

Dream
Achieve
Navigate
Center
Entertain

We all have the rhyme and the movement to be able to express how dance looks and feels to us. So, what does it look and feel like to you? Put together your own experiment and get into it.

See it through our eyes

 

How should I put this? See it through our eyes. There's no difference between you and me. Maybe just a little, but not a lot. I have been sitting here thinking we should all come together once again. It's like one big family because this is a community of people with different abilities. Did you see I did not use disability? The more we gather, the more we will all grow, and growing helps in many ways. I started growing in 2015 by opening up a space for people with disabilities to share their stories. And boy, what do you know, I have grown a lot by hearing other people's stories and the wisdom they have shared that I had no clue about. I have started my own journey. The same can go for you too. There are many faces I've seen before that remind me to never give up and to smile when things get rough. If I can do it, so can you. You know that there is a bright light at the end of the tunnel. You can and will reach it just by believing in yourself. If you thought I was going through a mental moment, think again. I'm doing just fine. I figured I would pay a visit and drop a little motivation for anyone who may need it because I know I need a little push sometimes too. So, here's a little motivational poetry that I randomly came up with.
