I very recently came across Miss Tristan’s beautiful blog ‘Besotted‘. A calming, curated collection of loveliness. I then happened upon the Inspiration Rx series started by Michelle to coincide with the beginning of a new learning season. I couldn’t help myself but do all the prompts in one sitting during some quiet time I had a couple days ago.
prompt one. emerging
comfort … warmth … security
this is the safe place i know
nurtured … protected … embodied
this is the safe place i grow
changing … expanding … unfurling
where i was can not contain me
stepping out … being bold … trusting
emerging stronger than i was before

prompt two. muse
color …
you are warm on my face as i sit here
with eyes closed you are dark grapefruit pink
the more i relax, as my head tips back
your color becomes lighter
as a plump pink rose in the summer garden
as my eyelids gently open
my lashes filter the blinding bright white i see
above me is the most perfect blue
cool, clear, crisp, calm
in gradiating tones as it moves away
from the brightest of glowing white
my gaze lowers to the grounding grass
tones of green
refreshing, resplendent, redolent and rolling
in natures perfect harmony
9.13.13
prompt three. tranquility
draw a deep breath
expel all your worries
calm your heart
make weightless your woes
quiet your thoughts
dwell on thanks giving
be at peace with
who you are right now
9.13.13
I am looking forward to continuing these prompts, I am enjoying them very much. I seem to be in the learning mode, as I also enrolled to be part of a photography workshop given by Christina Greve which began today. I am looking forward to learning much. Wishing you a lovely week.

So happy to have a writer join us! Loved the line: “make weightless your woes.” That’s everything about tranquility in a single phrase!
