the breeze
on your cheeks
the strength
of the earth
beneath your feet
the gentle caress
of the clouds
in your hair
relax your brow
lift your chin
smile into the wind
take it all in
all of it
remember
the details
all of them
there will come a time
that this memory
will give you strength
J. Belle
my mind
sits quietly
still amongst
the silence
i listen
take it all in
savour it
I hear
the wind
in the trees
rain upon
the window
I sip my coffee
rest my head back
against the chair
this is sunday morning.
J. Belle
I feel, therefore I am…
Unamuno
today
my heart
reached out
my finger
touched
your finger…
I stayed
a moment
to smile.
J. Belle
my hands
I use them
they tell
the story
of my life…
J. Belle
I lay flat in the cold…
a road made of ice.
Looking up into the darkness
as luminescent colours
dance above me.
Reaching up my arms,
tracing the colours
with my fingertips.
Painting the sky
and my mind with magic.
J. Belle
well, hello there
little flower.
where did you
come from?
and how on earth
did you grow here?
J. Belle
Make the best of it
whatever life brings you.
J. Belle
Sometimes
even the bravest
most beautiful hearts
lose their courage
then behave in
strange
unexpected ways
to conceal it.
J. Belle
