There's
a time when me mind is overwhelmed with events. The past two weeks
was one of those times when I did contemplate but without time to
scribble. Tonight I made time with a goblet of heavenly nectar
accompanied with soulful R and B singing with warm, wrapping sound.
I
finally finished a book that spoke to my soul in so many ways. It
gave me an insight to my appreciation and deftness with haiku, my
Irish heritage, astronomy and nature. I enjoy reading scholarly
tomes. The book is A Brief History of The Druids by Peter Berresford
Ellis. Dog eared pages, scusie Andrew :), stickie notes on others,
await for further pondering by The Pond. One has to read about Mr.
Ellis and his research to fully understand the book.

A
band of gold lattice woven beholding gems gathered in my journey.
Created by a magician of minerals who saw my vision and made it a
reality. Stephen, I thank you. The emerald and jade reflects nature
in me eyes; opals shine as the night stars; and amethyst the bright
light of spring. A gift to myself.

This
evening I gazed upwards and stood in awe at the bright lights in the
sky. Venus shone with such brilliance in the western sky, floating
alone in the twilight of the day. Looking eastward Jupiter was
winking with his “hey look at me V” sign. I was surrounded with
star shine. How could one not gaze in wonderment at such a heavenly
display.

Spring
has finally arrived. I've watched Canada geese flying north as black
specs in the morning sky; Chickadeedeedee's winter calls have
changed to spring song; snow dissipates slowly leaving pillars of
bird seed under the feeder that Pooka gnaws at in early morning; I no
longer need to plug the car in ;)
