Gratitude is one of the most
powerful human emotions.
Once expressed, it changes
attitude, brightens outlook,
and broadens our perspective.
Germany Kent
When I use the camera,
I often feel like I know
part of the people or places
I come in contact with.
Christophe Agou
I don't think of all the misery,
but of the beauty
that still remains.
Anne Frank
Under a garden light’s
Gentle beam,
They cluster softly,
Lost in their dreams.
At day's end
When the cool dusk falls,
Night ducks gather
By the willow walls.
Reeds whisper endearments
To the drifting breeze,
Fireflies dance
Among those willow trees.
One feathered friend
with a sleepy quack,
Glides through shadows
Then circles back.
While the night ducks murmur
By their silvery streams,
Cradled in darkness
Woven with dreams.
Ducks at night
In a hush so deep,
Turn the pond
Into a cradle of sleep.
Cloudia Charters
Negative people need
drama like oxygen.
Stay positive, it'll
take their breath away.

Ooo Thank you so much Clοudia for this wonderful start to the day!!
Have a wonderful day!!
Thank You friend ☺️
Both quotes speak to the transformative power of attention. Gratitude, as Germany Kent notes, shifts the way we see the world from within, while Christophe Agou reminds us that the camera allows us to connect deeply with the world outside ourselves.
Gratitude is the gift that keeps giving.
Thank you so much for your night ducks. Still smiling here.
Lovely post!
Pixie's quiet stare is enough to take away the breath of the biggest drama queens :)
I really like your duck poem. It gives a sense of peace.
The great thing about your blog is that it forces you to think about things that otherwise wouldn't occur to you. Have to say that takes effort but worth it.
Beautiful views and a cute Goldfinch.
Your poem is lovely.
Take care, have a great day!
That is quite a quote from Anne Frank considering her circumstances.
Great quotes all...going to borrow that last one!
Love the night duck poem, Cloudia. ;-)
Such lyrical imagery in your poem about the night ducks, Cloudia. Well done! And I'll choose a gratitude attitude every day of the week.
Lovely quotes and imaged
