I like to publicly wish my fellow Gemini Artist Friends Violette and Nicci , a very Happy Birthday! May your creative life bring you fiscal Abundance, peace and joy! Both ladies are living an artful life, Violette has a book in the works soon to be published and Nicci is busy marketing her jewelry and doing commission work! I wish you both boat loads of success!
Prompt for Sunday Scribblings this week is " Guide"
" The Artist Way" guided me into self discovery and personal resolve in my less creative days! The book " Crazy Time" guided me through the darkest days during the divorce process! The following poem touches on my internal guides!
Guided
My heart guides me to love and joy
My mind can lead me astray
When thoughts meander in fear
Constitution guides me back to the fray
Faith channels me to believe
Sorrow forces me out of sync
Hope draws me back to my heart
When I feel most on the brink
Compassion guides me to kindness
While doubt leads into mistrust
A jolt from ethic and karma
Compels me to do what is just!
Love guides me to feel generous
Austerity chokes me in a prudent haze
Consoled by Creative endeavors
Guided out of my dankest phase
Trust captures my attention
When resolve saunters on in
Contentment cozies with love
Joy bangs the drums to begin

Beautiful poem summarizing what I 'tried ' to write.
Happy Birthday to your buddies. xo
Our past does mess with our present but as long as we have love we can have joy. Beautiful Sherrie! xxoo
What a WONDERFUL post! And I love, love, love the illustration!!! What a coincidence: my nieces gave me The Artist's Way for Mother's Day, and I had decided this very morning to start using it today. You have further inspired me.
Love,
Alberta
