"Spread Your Wings" by Mariette H.
Surrender, Surrender
To the limiltess love
Which lies within your heart
With purity
A song,a poem so lovely
Beauty abounds
Quiet sounds
In the still forest
Come and take a rest
Listen in Silence and watch the Magic unfold
 ~~~~~
Butterfly, Butterfly
SPread your wings
Learn to fly
Butterfly
~~~~~
To distant lands
Where no limit is at hand
Your heart of gold
Of stories untold
Spread your wings
Learn to fly...

She Saw With The Eyes of Love;But wasn't always understood

"She saw with the eyes of love; but wasn't always understood" is a collage , journal entry. A bit more sombre than my usual paintings. I saw a young man today walking on the street as I was driving home,pan handling.
I rolled my window down,and gave him a dollar. Oh my the glow, and life that came on his face with a toothless smile.
He said" Happy New Year, and Good Luck". I wished him..all the luck myself at that moment..hoping he would be ok.

Let your light shine

This journal was made from a recycled office folder, the ones with little metal edges. 

I took the metal edges off, however, because I found it cumbersome.
It's my second one. The first one was a coloring book  http://lotuspond56-artlover.blogspot.com/2011/11/custom-coloring-book.html I created for my mother @ Xmas time.
She's received it and is truly happy.
This recent one is for my mixed media paintings. I've attached rings on it, unlike the first, so I can fill in new pages once it gets full!
My first mixed media painting is " Let your light Shine"....

I am here .........

 This is what I wrote in my little handcrafted Angel Book.  I called this journal "Life's Special Moments" . First entry is a poem from a prompt by Misty "I am Here" for her upcoming workshop http://mistymawn.typepad.com/                                                                       

   I Am  Here 

Shoulder shrugs,
A smile,
Quick glances,
Hurries by,
A moments pleasure,
A real treasure,
Walking by
Smelling the flowers,
Excited,
French Conversations,
With the waitress from 'France',
C'est bien j'aime ca ~!
~~~~
Shrugs..what to do..what to do?
There will be plenty..!
Meeting great artists online
Will be a mighty fine~
~~~~~
It'll be a moments pleasure
That I will surely treasure
I feel excited to learn new techniques
And taking a workshop with the wonderful
Misty Mawn
It will be a great experience
Sharpened up the pencils, got my paints
Patience it will be
It won't be to long now
Until we will be shown the know how;-)
