They become palaces of light,

You need not be full
to be lovely.
Even a sliver of you
reminds me
change is not always loss.
You do not hurry.
Neither must I.
Some nights
your company is enough:
a little room for mystery.
You keep no calendar
of my mistakes.
I'll let the day go.
You keep the night.
Luna above.
Quiet within.
Dear Luna,
I’m still becoming.

Cool poems from you and Pixie. I love the moon behind the clouds and Pixie becoming.
Amazing sky view, Beautiful photos. Loved your poem. Greetings to you and Pixie.
I enjoyed your poems and your photos and quotes today. Real nice catching up with you today.
I am still becoming, too. Blessings, Cloudia!
Autumn is the season
when cathedrals of
memories are built.
They become palaces of light,
amid the falling leaves~Jayita Bhattacharjee. So true, thanks!
I stopped to enjoy the cathedrals of memories, then slowly flowed through all the delightful photos (oh such yellow! oh such silver! oh such white fur!) to your becoming. Thanks!
Great sky shots, Cloudia. ;-)
That Pixie really has a way with words. Great.
Your poems are amazing and your photos are beautiful and poetic.
I commented before I saw your comment. Thank you for your kind words and for sharing about your husband. I’m so sorry for your loss. What a tender and sacred moment to be able to hold his hand as he went home. May the Lord comfort you deeply in these days, draw near to you in your grief, and surround you with His peace. I’ll be praying for you.
God bless you.
Beautiful post, Cloudia. Thank you, and have a nice weekend!
Lovely shots and the quotes are very nice too. I love the yellow flower.

I completely agree with Gertrude Stein!
Cathedrals of memories sometimes roam in my head. Please give Pixie's little fluffy paws some strokes for me. Linda in Kansas
Lovely post
I really enjoy your poems. The photos are great but those yellow flowers, Wow! So beautiful. Pixie is always entertaining. Thank you for sharing with FFO and have a very nice weekend.
Lovely photos and writing.
I just read what James wrote. I am so sorry for your loss. It may have been both a blessing and a curse. Death can come at you in odd and often indescribable ways. My deepest sympathy, dear Cloudia.
Lovely photos and stunning poems. Happy FFO.
beautiful poetry! Wonderful post. Have a lovely weekend!
Great shots.
I love, "...They become palaces of light,
amid the falling leaves."
