Daily Prompt: Jolly

The holidays always make me so jolly.

I love the Christmas music and the Christmas movies.

It just lights me up inside like all the Christmas lights that are up.

I shine like the star on top of the Christmas tree.

So unique and just so silently shining

So bright this season.

There is just something magical about this season and holiday.

The happiness is all around and sometimes in places and people you never  expected.

I wanted to open that door so bad, for it was time to say goodbye to the past and hello to the present and all that it has to offer me. 

So I knew that breaking those chains and opening up the door was what I needed to do today, I needed this change so bad right now that I would do anything to get it. 

I would leave  it all behind and move forward without worrying about the things I thought I needed in my life and move forward to the things I know are better for me in the long haul.

100 Word Wednesday: Week 48

Walking this path today was great  the sun was out and cool breeze was blowing around me and it felt just great to be out and about.
The birds were out and chirping to such a beautiful sound this morning, at first I walked around just enjoying the place I always loved to spend time in.
I started to take pictures and keep the memory of such a wonderful day out because, soon the weather would change and the snow will arrive and this moment will be gone.

Poetry

Daily Prompt: Varnish

It’s that time of year when I decide to do arts and craft for the holiday gives and to make my wooded pieces look so good with semi-gloss finish.

The little wooden lady I made for you this year I know you will love it as much as the heart I gave you last year.

Each year I ask you what you want and every year you say anything you give me I will love and cherish for the rest of my life.

The fact that you appreciate everything I give you hand-made you love it for I always seem to know just what you need to get you through the tough days.

Daily Prompt: Gorge

The view from the canyon was breath taking this morning and I just could have stayed out all morning but it was too cold.

I know soon it will all freeze up and be covered by snow and ice and even then the beauty will still be there.

Taking a walk back here every morning always makes the start of my day so much greater than when I don’t get out and see something beautiful first thing in the morning.

My mood always stays up even when the most unpleasant people come around.

Daily Prompt: Saintly

You are so good and kind to everyone that comes your way

Your smile is what drives them to you and your words are what keep them coming back..

They always come to you even when they know you are busy but, you always seem to make time for them.

You try to be yourself and show the kindness you were raised to show to everyone because at the end of day.

You want to feel that you were true to yourself and not what everyone else thinks you should be.

Your goodness and kindness is something you do not because  you need too, but because you want too.

Daily Prompt: Relocate

Sometimes we want to relocate our problems so that we don’t have to face them at the time.

Like when someone is being nasty and you just wish they would take their negative energy and go somewhere that was no where near you.

You want them to just relocate to someplace that will allow them to let out their anger and you don’t care where that place would be but they just need to leave you alone.

Or if they like you don’t mind relocating to a place away from them because you really don’t mind getting away and moving on.

Daily Prompt: Patina

As he waited to be seen by his doctor

he looked at the surface of the coffee table in the lobby and wonder

what they used to get the surface to look so good.

He knew no one in the office would know for they most likely wasn’t involved with picking out the furniture.

I guess the answer to his question will not ever be answered but it was such a pretty thing to look at while waiting to see your doctor on a Monday morning.

When you rather still be at home not thinking about things that will happen at work when he goes back tomorrow.

If only the weekend had lasted longer because it just seemed to go by way to quickly for his taste.
