A loose, colourful, watercolour on Arches paper created from my imagination to brighten your day! Painted wet on wet and I let the colours do their own thing and then I shaped the painting. A magical place to visit when we dream. “Please come take my hand, / and walk beside me into my fantasy land”.... See the rainbow colours all around, / it is so peaceful here and the only sound / is water lapping gently, trees swaying in the breeze, / leave your worries behind for what you see will please. The very heart of your being / will not believe what you are seeing. / Your spirit will be lifted your soul will start singing, / it all makes sense now, life is for loving, sharing and giving.

Balance was never and issue….. by TeriLee
Balance was never an issue
As long as I was moving.
Stagnant
I sit and begin bending
Losing my center
Demented growth
Held together by a
Tormented oath
Restless for wisdom
Lost inside familiarity
Balance was never an issue
Until…
I tried to be still.
My limits known to me now
Withering
Melting away
Looking to find
The foundation to a path
I was never on
Retracing my steps
Seeking
Searching
Hunting
In the wrong place
For something not lost…
Stillness
Intimidating to me
Because there doesn’t seem much to study
To gain
To see
But I am learning
Stillness
Is there
An echo
Reminder of Everything
The entity
Non existent details
Wither in silence
And suddenly
One way or another
I find a soothing awareness
In the violence of nothing
Hostility of stillness
A saddened ending
To a bashful beginning
A prophecy coming to be.
Balance,
Never an issue…
Until…
I had to learn
How to be still.
