I am frightened of the signs / pinned to uneven doors / I am terrified of the unknown / behind even doors with no signs Signs of regret / Signs of pain / Signs of darkness / Signs of loneliness Missing signs If you are alive / why did I forsake you / to float inside my mind? / what happened to us? / if I promise to visit the even rooms / in search of courage / believing I shall find it Will you then meet me in the room of pain? / Will you hold my hand as we walk through the doorway to regret? / Will you be my eyes as I come to terms with the room of darkness? / Will you accept my love and apology as I carry you over the threshold of loneliness? I know you are dead / I know you are alive / I know you are me I am ready to open all the doors / Are you?

Image Copyright Banishing of the Pedestal / By the gorgeous LisaG I placed her upon a satin trimmed pedestal / her beauty and gentle spirit / required the utmost reverence / to which I honoured with love and pride / though she asked not to be so / nor in fact naught of me Until this recent difficult time / she looked at me with scared doe eyes / begging to be released / from the lofty unattainable tower / I had knowingly sentenced her to / her tired and veined hand reached out for mine Her angelic voice / fell silent / no longer was it her time to utter soothing words / to ease my own sense of burden / it had become my time / to gently rock her, calm I am truly now for her / as she has truly always wanted to be / grounded and level / a return to hand in hand as we once were / before I placed her on a pedestal / when I was little girl and she my joyful mother
..there’s always one, who shines a little brighter than the rest. / While I know many people who fit this description (!!), I’m dedicating this to a certain someone who always manages to strip away the ugly layers in me, revealing a raw truth, and often times when I read her writing, tears spill from my eyes. Lisa, this is for you. :) / I don’t have much to give, but I spent the better part / of this evening working on this for you. I want you to know / how special you are! Your words fill oceans.. For those that aren’t familiar with Lisa’s writing, / I implore you to take a moment. Grab some tea, / (or coffee) and rest your bones. I assure you, you / won’t regret it! :) You can view her work here: / Lisa G / / And my personal favourite: / Banks Of A Crystal Flowing Creek (Now go check it out! ;) Canon G3 / 5.26.09 /

This weeks Red Bubbler up for interogation is the beautiful wordsmith LisaG / / / / How many superlatives can one use to describe this wonderful lady and her lyrical creations? / Billions! / Her vast array of subject matter and playful phrasing make her an inspiration to us aspiring writers. / Please take the time to read some of her work here and you will be left with no doubts as to why she is one of Red Bubbles most popular and appreciated writers! / / I’ve got a couple of favs for you to check out…. / / Scat / Felicity / & / Ode to Led Zeppelin / / Ok, enough with the hugs and kisses and on with the show!! :D / PLV – 1. If money or responsibilities were not an option… where would you be right now and what would you be doing? / / I’d be in Fiesole, Tuscany… my soul home… studying Etruscan History, writing amongst my vegies and herbs, learning Italian from my neighbours. Taking trips all throughout Italy until; I master a dish from each region. Watch Mark paint canvas after canvas. And finally learn the Cello. / / PLV – 2. Did you grow up to be what you grew up wanting to be? Care to explain? / / I wanted to be a Nurse, like my grandmother and mother….my life changed when I had my first child, very young. I left school after year 10 and had three children by the time I was 21. I did go on to study at Uni but my choice of study was an Arts degree (Ancient Civilisations) and I’m yet to use it. I don’t believe I really have a vocation – I’ve been content in my employment; I have been working for a large Telco for 5 years. As it turns out… I think I would have made a great nurse ;) / / PLV – 3. You are stranded on a desert island and given 5 foods you will have to eat for the rest of your life… What will you choose? Add a drink or two just for balance! / / Rice / Vegetables / Pasta / Bread / Meat / / Hehe does that count? Or do I have to pick dishes. If so. / / Mushroom Risotto / Lasagna / Grano padano with crusty bread / Curried pumpkin soup / Guinness Pie / / Sav blanc wine – Orange Juice (ok fine, bourbon and coke) / / PLV – 4. Up until now, what has been the best year in your life (199? or 198?) and what happened in that year that made it so great? / / Impossible, I’ve 3 children I adore, each born in different years. I’m married to a wonderful man, another year there. / / BUT… Then there is the year after I left my first marriage (1995). After being told, I’d amount to nothing, that I was in fact nothing… by my first husband. I worked out, I was something. My children and I blossomed, I started Uni. I started a part time job, I had almost NO money, but somehow I took care of my children; in what now seems like a grand style. I discovered, the arts – theatre, art galleries, conversation, I found my voice. / / PLV – 5. If you had been an actor/actress what 5 movies would you have loved to have starred in and why? / / Oh this is hard – as I can easily pick my five favourite movies. / / Judy Garland – Dorothy – The Wizard of Oz / For the adventure, her compassion and strength – even though she had lost sight of “there is no place like home” / / Robin Williams – John Keating – Dead Poets Society / To inspire passion, enthusiasm, and loyalty in others; is an incredible gift and admirable. / / Audrey Tautou – Amélie / Oh geez, just to be Amelie would be it for me….to be quirky, carefree, yet caring, crazy yet sane. Makes the most sense, I’ve ever seen. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous… / / The last two are slightly different, they are not just about the roles and actors but about those they worked with. / / Susan Sarandon – Sister Helen Prejean – Dead Man Walking. / Firstly, for those that know me – they will get my Nun fascination, hehe. But primarily I would love to work beside Sean Penn, for me one of the finest actors, ever. / / Morgan Freeman … Ellis Boyd Redding – The Shawshank Redemption / He held his dignity and persevered to find his utopia against all the odds. And OMG got to work with Tim Robbins…whose performance and character I shall never forget. /

I receive some wonderful comments on my work. But I know the comments are really about the people that work represents. The tireless souls who do the hard yards for all of us on the battlefront that is Goma, DR Congo. And that’s cool with me, ‘cos they deserve it :) But when people actually contribute to their cause with acts of love, make no mistake, they deserve the plaudits as well. Take LisaG Lisa is an enormously gifted writer who graces the pages of RB like a butterfly dances across a petal. She plants seeds of thought, gems of wisdom and delights in raising questions for us to ponder intermittently as we journey through our day. She is what I call one of those ‘inside-out’ people. Before you see her face, you see her heart. Then there’s Jess . I haven’t met Jess but I reckon you can tell a lot about people by their avatar. Her’s reveals a delicateness which is clearly apparent. You see these two ladies bought the world’s most expensive card The one that makes the ridiculous profit of $30.00 which goes to HEAL Africa. / Those of you who know a bit about it may have seen what’s going on in Goma Congo at the moment. A human disaster which just like all the other ones the UN is struggling to stop as it is so tied up in bureaucracy. We’ll all be watching docos on this in 10 years about what should have been done. Like Rwanda, like Dafour, like Sarajevo. There comes a point in life where you whisper to yourselves “not on my watch…’ That’s what these ladies have done. I know these journals seem a bit over the top. Especially for the usual wise-cracking cynic I can be :) But I’ve been there and I’ve seen it. And that changes people. Thanks guys xx

I’m so thrilled LisaG decided to write a poem inspired by ‘Twilight’. Thanks LisaG! Inside your marvel red cloak / you whirl a teasing parody / for the familiar and bystanders I breathe in your sultry laughter / I watch you pirouette skyline swirls / I smell musk before you enter And the stars come out to watch. Inside my cloak of earthy green / I bloom, petal pride / greeting you and your bystanders Tickled to be invited. You touch my face and sigh / nuzzling with want and heart / scratching love notes on my flesh And the stars twinkle their delight.
