Song of the Soul
In the depth of my soul there is a wordless song A song that lives in the seed of my heart. It refuses to melt with ink on parchment; It engulfs my affection in a transparent cloak And flows but not upon my lips.
How can I sigh it? I fear it may mingle with earthly ether; To whom shall I sing it? It dwells in the house of my soul, In fear of harsh ears.
When I look into my inner eyes I see the shadow of its shadow; When I touch my fingertips I feel its vibrations.
The deeds of my hands heed its presence as a lake must reflect the glittering stars; My tears reveal it, as bright drops of dew reveal the secret of a withering rose.
It is a song composed by contemplation, And published by silence, And shunned by clamour, And folded by truth, And repeated by dreams, And understood by love, And hidden by awakening, And sung by the soul.
It is the song of love.
~Khalil Gibran

Our soul is an interesting place. Our mind, our will, and our emotions all wrapped around our heart.
That’s why I am a big believer in time and patience. Together they always reveal our inner being. Who we really are.
Words written precisely in ink on parchment will always be a place for our deeper thoughts. It can be a very good place to contemplate, be real, and meditate on what really matters.
You be well, safe travels, and have a very wonderful fall season…Greg

Without labor nothing prospers. ~Sophocles Happy Labor Day... You've worked hard, now take a day to sit back and relax. Enjoy your long weekend my friend! Keep it safe!! :o)
Evening greetings to the wonderful... beautiful... talented Ms. Nikkihart! :o) I am hoping that this greeting finds you in good spirits and doing well. What a lovely poem. I think sometimes chords and melody and rhythm can say things that are beyond words. I think music is a very pure form of communication. Anyone can understand it (to a degree at least, depending on what it is- I don't know that everyone "understands" something like bebop or twentieth century classical). To me, music is like the greatest drug in the world (not that I've tried very many, lol)... it can pick me up, make me think, smile, sing, cry, dance... That's another great thing about music, songs can move your soul. Keep well Nikki! Enjoy the rest of your week.

Life isn't fair , but it's still good. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about. It's never too late to have a happy childhood But the second one is up to you and no one else No one is in charge of your happiness but you Your children get only one childhood so love and give your all Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.
However good or bad a situation is, it will change. _000000___00000___* 00000000_0000000___* 0000000000000000____* _00000000000000_____* ___00000000000_____* ______00000_______* ________0________* ________*__000000___00000 _______*__00000000_0000000 ______*___0000000000000000 ______*____00000000000000 ______*______00000000000 _______*________00000 ________*_________0

hELLO nIKKI..iM BACK FROM aDELAIDE....SPENDING TIME WITH MY mUM oops caps soz. How are you Nikki Is your summer nearly over.Here in Melbourne we have had nothing but wind hail and rain so when i flew to to Adelaide I was so surprised to get off the plane and they have sunshine what a delight that was. we went out everyday saw great movies Went to the beach..also watched a commercial being made while sitting eating our lunch Great holiday. but the day i flew back it was very windy and raining so i picked a good time to leave only to have a waring about 106 knots of wind. My son picked me up and it was not much visitably ..ok i spelt that wrong on the roads and a major storm.. but I was so happy to arrive.This morning its not raining just windy Im going to take my daughter to lunch now Enjoy the weekend Hugs Noelle
Hi Nikki Thanks for visitin me. :) Our summer has been the same as yours. Lots to do with renovations and such. Today is the first schoolday for the kids. Autumn is getting closer, but it's been a great summer :) Hope you´re doing fine and I wish you a great week BG HUG
Dear Nikki, Thank you for visiting the Painting Studio. You know, I always smile and feel good when you visit. Even though so very far away it is good to know that old friends know and care. It was great fun making the "Hairpiece" photo and I really cracked myself up laughing out loud. Good thing I live alone or others would think I had gone bonkers. Smile! Mom called last night after seeing the post on one of my sisters computer and she was laughing. A bit of gold is better than a mountain of coal and a bit of comic relief goes a long way in world of chaos. It is ever a blessing to experience the terrible beauty of the gift of life and share that which makes the experience a bit better. Now that was too much of something one would hear on a Sunday morning for me. Smile! Wish you a very good week and as ever be well
Hi Nikki How are you doing? Not too bad I hope! I am.. enjoying the last days of winter
And yes.. only 8 sleeps 'till Spring My daughter and I were out the back today planting tomato seedlings and... cucumber and sweet corn. It might be a bit early to be planting them but, we had heaps of fun doing just that.
What about you Nikki.. what have you been doing? I hope that you've been behaving yourself And keeping out of trouble and even.. with those restrictions that I've placed on you...Also having a good time :)
