As I'm sitting here evaluating my life.
How I fell about it.
How much I want to share.
My story's not of romance or stuggle or strife.
I'll put it quite simply, my life is my life.
I want the world to see what I see.
To share in my joy, my soul, to feel free.
Free of expression and judgement and law.
To simply sit back and see what I saw.
A painting with pink,my true favorite color.
To know it's my fave and still love the others.
To join me on trips,
remember, discover.
Explore and create,
to just miss my mother.
To hear all the wisdom passed down from my Dad.
To love what I love,
to have what I had.
This is my longing
It's all that I yearn.
To round these corners and take these turns.
I don't need critique,
approval or reward.
I just want to write
with this gift from my Lord.
Happy Easter
Happy Passover
Happy All
Blessed Be
Tommi Cordial
Dear Tommi,
From reading your blog, I fathom that you are a spiritual being with much love and joy to share with the whole world. It is my sincere wish that there were more people like you on this earth we call home.
Although my Dad has been deceased for many years, I stilll benefit and am influenced by his philosophies and wisdom. He passed when I was eighteen, but his spirit is still my guide. I try to partake in the joy of the world, but I sometimes have dark negative thoughts. I don't act on them. Instead I write some dark poetry, under the name of eddy styx (my male alter ego) I put my "rage on the page" instead of hurting anyone or myself. So if you happen to read one of my eddy styx poems, please don't be put off, it is just me releasing my negative energy in a defused manner.
I very much enjoy your poetry and blogs. They are informative and well written.
always, Cat (& eddy)
brightest of blessings
thank you
Thank you again. I too have a negative side that I write about. You may not recognize it here but i am hoping to publish short stories on negative things and feeling aimed toward adolescent teens. My children love all my work so i want to write new as they are adults now. i have lost both of my parents my mother in 1991 and my father more recently 2008. i think of them ofte and how they have inspired me to write all my life and still now that they are no longer here. Tommi Cordial is my male alter ego and i also have a female whose name is maxine and her work is very dark. still yet to be published:)
Dear Tommi,
I look forward to reading the work of your others! You are multi talented!
I lost my motherin 2006. But she was never much of a mother. She had mental illnesses and was abusive to me since I was a baby. I managed a reconciliation just before her death, as she did apologise to me. I sent her off feeling happier and relieved with a sense of peace.
always,
Cat
smiling
im so happy for you both :)

Not sharing a Lord, but this is well written.
just a few tiny things like an i instead of I.
Those must be right for publishing, of course.
Ann, I cant say Happy Easter as its gone :)
Happy always be.
thanks again
I always do that and I miss them when I edit my own and Robecca was busy :)
