A taste of what may come...
It's time to experiment!
Ideas are brewing…
March is going to be my Substack month. It’s where I love to be, and I really want to focus on it, it’s time to double down and make proper use of this space.
These were my thoughts at approximately 4.30am this morning, and so I’m saying it out loud, here, to make me do it!
And what always happens in the early hours, when it’s dark and sleep is lost, is that my brain then thinks it’s playtime, and starts creating poems, today’s was an acrostic poem and it goes like this;
Scratches
Scratching into the plate releases a net
Catching the thoughts that swirl
Reeling from the beauty of it all
Attacked by a force of calm
That reaches my finger tips digging in
Carefully creating a magical woodland
Here is the light
Escaping on to dusty paths
Silence is surrounding me
This all came from a printing class I did last week with the results below, an oasis of calm on a Tuesday evening in a country village hall.
Today I listened to Mel Robbins podcast as I do most Mondays and she was talking about directing busy brains / super computers to projects or creativity, otherwise they can turn in on themselves, and over analyse ourselves creating a wave of anxiety.
This, for me is so true, when I’m feeling adrift, the only way out is to create or get lost in nature - the sweet spot is both.
The pieces that inspired the words
I want to grow this community, ideas are bubbling, expect them to swirl, mix, froth and simmer and hopefully turn into a magic alchemy for you to try and make life a little sweeter for us all.
With Love and Light
