The name of the song is Mi … More Random Thoughts: Music (Part II)
Music surrounds me and works its way into my heart. It is a huge part of my life, and I can do almost nothing without having listened to some casual jazz or blues, depending on my mood. I’ll be starting a series in which I’ll describe what certain songs made me feel or think. The … More Random Thoughts: Music (Part I)
Stones. Lots of stones. They reminded her of the metaphorical ones in her head, ever-present to burden. She stuck her snout out of the window* and was greeted by a gust of wind, inhibiting her breathing, but exhilarating at the same time. It felt like those burdens were melting away with the moody weather. She … More Her nature

The flowers are in bloom. Everywhere I look, there is a vibrancy of colors! I see a slightly bent over tree, with streamlined, sap-green leaves and flowers of a shade of lavender. The petals have cascaded onto the prickly, viridian grass, and the burnt sienna of the ‘omnipresent’ dirt provides a stark contrast to them. … More Random thoughts: Trees

The wind flows through my hair, gently caressing my face. The palm fronds surrounding me sway to a rhythm. The diminishing sun emits the last few rays of the day. The frothy waves come at me, barely touching my feet. I close my tired eyes, and think of a day well spent. I am alone, … More Complete
