She smiles only in pictures
Her hair is growing long

With eyes closed
Au coucher du soleil
Her voice is dulcet
Her laugh is nexus

"Take me with you," she says.
"We'll make kites, we'll steal land."

The gentle arrival of rain
In the blue hour of
The portrait gallery
Makes her qualified to dream
About a serenade of water
And the blueberry boat

~
Numbness of reality
A meditative process
I rather not feel
All the sudden losses
The older I get
The clearer I see
The game is stacked
Exponentially

By the darkest night’s
Of our soul
We build these defenses
We are in accord
With a game of certain
Consequences

Good or bad
It’s a hell of a ride!
But if I can help it
I won’t let anybody die..
Traveler 🧳 Tim

My oldest dog had to be put down that day.. Ya we had four on our farm.
anxiety attack
sweat down my back

sleepless nights
and walking nightmares

I am being followed everywhere,
my own shadows are ahead of me

they lead the way,
and have me doubt
each step, each word, each thought
they crawl from underneath my skin
they mock, they push, they scream

“not good enough “
-again, they bluff
every time I am getting closer to being the person I wish to be, time and time again they reappear, and try to drag me back, into my endless self doubt pits.

Catching up on sleep
Is important for your health
Helps happy thoughts bloom

❤️💕❤️💝
When your extra tired everything can seem a little more down in the dumps. I’ve learnt that catching up on sleep can be  good for your mental health
The moon and Venus are out tonight
Both shining bright at just about midnight
A rarity to be able to see
Happens once or twice in year for you and  me
As time sneaks by
the moon In the sky
Slowly recedes
As it proceeds
Around the world
And Venus is curled
Just up to the left
Of the moon in its cleft
What an amazing sight
As they both shine so bright!
As they go on their way into the night!
