The moon is alive
because of the darkness-
how could we ever be afraid
of something that gives
the stars a home?

True silence is the
rest of the mind;
it is to the spirit
what sleep is to
the body, nourishment
and refreshment.
William Penn
Birds sing after a storm;
why shouldn't people feel
as free to delight in
whatever sunlight
remains to them?
Rose Kennedy
Today,
I woke with nothing to fix.
Just the gift
Of morning
Clear
And enough.
Night rain washed
Old worries away.
In the hush before light,
Feeling like a better day.
Voices of the waking drift
With sparrows in the dawn—
Near and far
A gentleness is felt
Optimism
To which I'm drawn.
Outside leaves
Turn toward sun.
Their world is simple
Green, gold, important
And fun. 💚

I like the Moon and the Sun in your pictures - kind of reminds we just live on a big ball rushing through space! Cheers - Stewart M, Wilsons Prom National Park, Victoria
Such a gentle and powerful reminder—like the birds, we too can choose resilience, finding joy in the light that follows even our darkest moments.
What a wonderful way to wake. Love that view too.
Again a good one to start the week and I love the poem under Pixie.

Looks like you got a picture of the Celestial Smiley. With only Castor visible it looks like a Winky Smiley. Very cool. Pixie looks so pensive. I wonder what she's thinking. Happy T Day
