A slight glimmer…

On By ResaIn Street Art2 Comments

Lauren, Spillwords “Author of the Month” for May 2023 has a new book on the horizon. Her last book, “More than Coffee”, a collection of poetry and prose, is a gem.
I’m thrilled to share this glimmer with you!

Lauren Scott, Author's avatarBaydreamer Writes ~ Lauren Scott, Author & Poet

Remember, the breeze carries
burdens down rivers
and across oceans,
majestic trees sway with joy,
sheltering from shadows,
and the light shines even if only
a slight glimmer slips through...

Keep hope in your heart and enjoy your weekend! ❤️

This verse is from a poem in my upcoming book.

Gemini the hyperactive thinker

On By ResaIn Street Art4 Comments

From Marina Kanavaki at Art Towards a Happy day, here is the third sign of the Zodiac as imagined by Anakreon Kanavakis, Marina’s father. Seeing each astrological sign go by, in a drawing by him, is adding another joy to my life.

[21 May – 20 June]

Today is the first day of Gemini, the third sign of the Zodiac.

Gemini is amutable air sign, ruled by Mercury.

Quick-witted and sociable they are always ready for fun [or not!] with a curiosity about the world that knows no bounds …but is there enough time?!

Starting from the last [12th] sign, I’ll be posting these original illustrations, Anakreon Kanavakis created for a calendar. [check it out here]

I love these so much, I designed a whole set of products with them at my art shop.

Here are a few.

Happy Sunday!

and… Happy birthdays to all Geminis out there!

Daydreaming

She stepped away from her cottage onto the grass, cool and springy beneath her feet. She lay on a small hill, crossed her feet and interlaced her fingers to cradle her head.  Gazing up at the blue sky, her thoughts drifted with the clouds, dreamily.  What I wouldn’t give to be able to ride one of those clouds or up and fly to diverse destinations with the birds.  To experience new cultures, go on adventures, to see—

SPLAT!

Right on her forehead.

“Thanks a lot!” she shouted to the now empty…

Journey

Take a little trip on Holly’s Sunbird’s song!

Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore” – Andre Gide

We are winged and freedom is etched on the soles of our feet. Our voyage is uncharted, roaming deep blue ocean fed skies, the stars our only guide, intruders mesmerized by lush river banks of spicy cypress where Sunbirds have sung for a million years. We speak in tongues of the travelers before us , nomadic wanderers of the familiar and the unknown. Our nights are spent in shadows, waking to the sweet perfume of rain.

They are however, never shallow.
Take a walk with Frank and discover, if you haven’t already!

I like walking on the beach. It is good for the mind, body, and soul – and refreshing on my feet.

Deep is my theme for the day. Deep that is intense, heavy, extreme, profound, mysterious, and obscure. Deep expands the mind because deep is a trip through the known into the unknown. Deep is the travel route to make meaningful connections.

With the sea, I think deep as a distance from the surface and then down to the floor. Different depths receive different amounts of light, therefore suitable for different life forms.

Eventually, there is the darkest of deep – a place where light does not reach. A deep place without photosynthetic plants to serve as the producers to start the food chain. A deep place with other organisms able to…
