I was lucky with the weather this week. It gave me some beautiful sunset photos and I found a few colorful things to share with you.
Enjoy your Saturday!
Sunset reflection captured in the performing arts hall
A lone Bird of Paradise
Some colorful fish decorating the side of someone’s house
A Yellow Crowned Night Heron not bothered with me at all
Pretty Spanish Moss on an Oak tree

Energized by your appearance
Seduced by your presence
Captured by your perseverance
Awakened by your caress
Passion aroused with your finesse
Excellence achieved by your experience
Taken by your curiosity
Overwhelmed with your generosity
Surrounding me with perfection
Overpowering me with your protection
Luring me to that special place
Astounding me with your charms
Carrying me in your arms
Escaping to the quantum of solace
Christine Bolton
This was my first attempt at an Acrostic poem. Hope you enjoyed it!
Desperate to escape the chaos
I reach for my formula of medicine
Journal and writing implements in hand
Slipping quietly into oblivion
My thoughts become an epiphany
Exploding in my head
Furiously I write them down
Capturing all before they are dead
The clear night
Gave forth to brilliant stars
Lighting the sky
Like a fireflies in jars
The soft breeze
Was calming my soul
Musical leaves fluttering
I will soon again be whole
My words move quickly
Across the page
Reminiscent of ballerinas
Dancing on a stage
My heart empties
Its tears of pain
Forming verse so beautiful
Reminding me I am sane
When inside my head
Becomes dark and captured
I can set the demons free
With writings enraptured
Flowing effortlessly
Like waters in a stream
Unleashed onto paper
As if in a dream
Therapy for my head
The jumbled pieces of my brain
Coming together in harmony
My heart does not beat in vain
The pen is mightier than the sword
My words are my power
Grounded by my enlightenment
While adversaries inhabit ivory towers
Christine Bolton
