LEARNING TO FLY

"Life is an adventure, lived out between birth and death, earth and sky. While we are here , we might as well learn to fly. It beats walking the whole way to Heaven!" pjmcn

FLYING SHOES!




                  FLYING SHOES! 
 


What kind of shoe do you wear shopping?

I usually wear something sensible, 
                             but at the mall here in Kampalla the other day,

I fell in love with what these ladies chose to wear! 


                             GOLD HIGH HEELS WITH "DIAMONDS"! 


Isn't it just great that golden slippers are still in style, and there are ladies with enough CONFIDENCE  to wear them! 


Have a totally fabulous stepping out in fancy shoes day, wontcha!

STARING INSTEAD OF FLYING




.....SOMETIMES WHAT WE ARE LOOKING AT ISN'T THE WHOLE 
PICTURE............


......SOMETIMES THERE IS 
SOMETHING WE  AREN'T 
HEARING.........




ROCK  WALL


 Standing at the window,
Staring at a rock wall,
Mind blank -
It registers that somewhere,
Out of sight,
A bird is singing its heart out! 

Identifying the sound,
I know it is an iridescent sun bird,
An exquisite jewel of a bird,
And the rock wall in front of me,
Takes on a whole new meaning:

No matter what road block might be ahead,
There’s always a song to sing,
 and something to sing about:

The bird sees the sunshine above the wall,
And tho’ unseen,
Floods my soul with his joyful sound
From  beyond the rock wall!

TAKE TIME OUT OF FLYING FOR TEA!

Usually, I am not a tea drinker. I love my coffee! but lately, I have been having a civilized cup of tea now and then, 
so I noticed this lovely  pot! 


It invokes the essence of tea drinking! 
Pink, roses, crystal top, just gives an impression of sitting quietly and sipping a nice hot cup!


Visiting friends, this was on her table, and I couldn't resist taking its photo. Mmmm, what a pretty tea pot, what pretty thoughts, and so, 


Have a quiet cup, and a few smiles, and pause in the business of learning to fly. I am, so 

Have a special tea moment, wontcha!

TASTE SENSATIONS




TASTE SENSATION

I read that blood tastes like copper
Licking a cut finger, looking at my copper vase:
Blue -yellow flowers and green spiky leaves
Reflected on it's side  :
I licked the reflection,
and tasted only summer. 


If I lick water where the full moon makes a path, 
Will my tongue glow in the dark?
Will my saliva rise in tides, 
Every 30 days?

The sun went down in the lake last night, 
And I drank the water the falling sun set ablaze.
It burned all the way down, 
And left a red stain on my tongue.

have a sensation-taste today, wontcha!

AFRICAN QUEEN

                                           AFRICAN QUEEN

 Seated on a boda boda limousine, 
My African Queen, My African Queen!
She's ot class and she's got style,
Sails threw traffic with her beautiful smile, 
Her pretty silver slippers dangle from her toes, 
Boda boda limousine, and off she goes!
A beautiful heascarf matches her dress
She looks bothered or in distress
She works so hard and life can be mean,
But on the boda boda, she's an African Queen!

Congratulations! you have such style!
I'd like to ride with you awile!
You hide your problems and dream your dreams
and ride the boda boda like an African Queen~

this is one of the prettiest bugs I have ever seen!
usually, bugs are interesting, or funny,or down right scary!
In fact, I thought the only pretty insects were butterflies!

A good friend and I were able to spend a long time by a hedge of these plants, in the warm sunshine, taking photos,

I hope you see some pretty bugs, there are just so many amazing ones to see, I'm glad I got in on this bug world!

Have an amazing day, wontcha!
