Your body listens
to every word you think,
the quiet witness,
So faithful and true.
Really your oldest friend.
to every word you think,
the quiet witness,
So faithful and true.
Really your oldest friend.
So do speak softly within.
Let your thoughts
be kind.
Tell your body:
you are safe,
we are healing,
you are a gift to me.
Rest without guilt,
and breathe.
Each inhale
is a promise fulfilled.
Kindness
spoken inward
Is the best medicine.
Because your body
believes you.

Not only is there a right
to be happy,
there is a duty to be happy.
So much sadness exists
in the world that we are all
under obligation to contribute
as much joy as lies
within our powers.

Oh gosh, Miss Pixie is drying her pink toebeans right on that little square of towel. So cute. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteYour poem is marvelous, Cloudia. Pixie looks stunning. Did she just get out of the hot tub where the couple is looking very happy? Is that why she needs a towel?
ReplyDeleteWe too often forget to speak kindly to ourselves, don't we? Beautiful poem, Cloudia, and I love that photo of Pixie. Have a blessed Sunday!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking kindness to oneself is a fine idea.
ReplyDeleteThe first two pics are fine art images
ReplyDelete...I better think good thoughts!
ReplyDeleteHello Cloudia,
ReplyDeleteLove your poem and the quotes.
Cute photo of Pixie and her reflection.
Take good care of yourself.
Enjoy your day and the new week ahead.
I love the reminder in your poem that I need to do a better job of being good to my mind and body.
ReplyDeleteThat first picture is really pretty.
ReplyDeletePixie is enjoying the beauty of her reflection :)
ReplyDeleteI love visiting you & Pixie here, Cloudia, ;-)
ReplyDeleteHi Cloudia, just stopped in to see your lovely post today. Have a nice Sunday.
ReplyDeleteGreat images today!
ReplyDeleteGreat poems and mural - I just wonder... did Pixie not get aggressive? Most cats don´t recognize themselves in a mirror, so... chapeau!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely calm mural. Love Pixie looking at herself in the mirror :) Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Cloudia
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful poem. Amazing skies. Loved the tree pic.
ReplyDeleteMural looks awesome. Have a great week ahead. Greetings to you and cute Pixie :)
