quiet moments

I encourage you to welcome the quiet moments in your life, they really are special time for you, they really to calm the mind and rest the soul…..this poem was written in one of those quiet moments, enjoy.

 

A Quiet Moment

A quiet moment,
A silent thought.
Takes me to the top,
Unties the knot.
A puzzling question.
Lost in the cave.
Like surfers on the beach.
Enticing the wave.
A drifting mind,
Hides the heart.
Express your passion,
Make a start.
Creativity reveals,
The best part of you.
This is your purpose,
Make it come true.

Who is this Woman?

Clarabelle.orgLeave a comment

Poetic moments from my poetic heart to you.

Who is this Woman?

Who is this woman?
With dreams for the taking.
What is she doing?
What is she making?

She talks of big plans,
And all things good.
She always shines,
In a positive mood.

Why is she writing?
Like she’s talking to me.
Building me up,
Taller than a tree.

Will she tell us?
When her desires show.
Moving from her soul,
And her spirit do flow.

I like her a lot,
This woman on a mission.
Encouraging my heart,
Retrieving my vision.

So I guess I’ll listen,
And set my goals too,
This woman is an Angel,
She lives inside of you.

When Will You Get There?

Clarabelle.orgLeave a comment

Let me tell you something, I was thinking about this, only this evening. If you’re looking for the end, if you’re wanting the process to “hurry up” then whatever it is that you are doing, may not be for you.

I write to you, everyday I write, I never look for the ending, I never think, when is this piece of writing going to end. The reason being is that I love it so much, love never wants to end, it’s continuous it’s unbreakable, the bond only gets stronger.

So if you’re looking into the distance and questioning, when will you get there…….maybe you have to change the question…….and if you have to change the question, then I guess you already know the answer.

Never ever will I stop writing to you, because even when my soul has passed on to another dimension, my spirit still shines in you, the reader and this then inspires you…..and the light continues to shine on.

You may only be one candle, but this one candle, has the power to light up the Universe.

Please remember how empowering you can be.

Light up your world and you light up the world of everyone around you.

I see your light, love Clarabelle

Hang in There

Clarabelle.orgLeave a comment

I was talking to my friend today and I ended the conversation with “Hang in there”…… It inspired the poem below:

Hang on Tight

Hang on tight,
My lovely friend.
Keep up the fight,
Until the end.

This year’s been tough,
A burden to carry.
But soon the night sky,
Will be bright and starry.

An Angel she whispers,
Softly in my ear.
Let go of the past,
Don’t shed another tear.

For all this kicking
And punching won’t win.
It’s a hard trek I know,
For your next of kin.

I pray every night,
For you, better days,
Your family together,
This loving Angel says.

I’m on your shoulder,
Taking care of you.
Holding your hand,
During tough times too.

And Soon tomorrow,
Will shine in your heart.
No more sadness,
Just a happy fresh start.

Come into the Light

Clarabelle.orgLeave a comment

Come into your own light today and express the real you. Let go of all fears that prevent you from moving forward. Embrace each new person into your life with warmth, smiles and kindness. When you see someone struggling, give them a piece of your light, it will make you sparkle even more.

Stand strong and bright, this world needs you.

It’s Only A Matter of Time

Clarabelle.org1 Comment

IMG_3534

It’s only a matter of time for your vision to come alive.  First you feel it in your heart, then you see it in your imagination, then you feel it moving in your bones and then it dances throughout your body….and only when it has flowed through all of those stages, only then it begins to take form.

It starts with one word, one step, one piece of the 100,000 piece jigsaw puzzle but it doesn’t matter how long it takes, because you know “your calling” is going to make it.  Listen to me my friend, it’s only a matter of time……because it is in silence of faith that dreams can be awakened.

So can I relate to the above?  Yes, you’ve got it, of course I can.  Almost 6 years ago, I was kind of laughed at because I said at the very start of my business that I was going to have my own books, my very own positive book range……I just knew what they were thinking, their faces said it all, but you know I BELIEVED, I really believed in me, I always do and sometimes I get off track but I always get back there, back to where I need to be.

I sit here today looking at my first Amazon paperback book,”Clarabelle’s Musings”, sitting on my home office desk and I am smiling with pure joy, excitement and adoration of what I see before me……for my heart is sitting on this table, my heart is painted on the pages of this book, making its way to you.

IMG_3536

IMG_3535

So if you believe like I believed in me, when other people laughed at what I wanted to achieve for myself, may my own story inspire you to keep going my friend…..6 days, 6 months, 6 years, you’re going to make it…..it’s only a matter of time.

Much love to you, Clarabelle

Even Angels Have a Bad Day

angel cloud

Having a bad day?…..Even Angels have a bad day.

Without the bad days, you wouldn’t experience the best of the best days, because you wouldn’t have that contrast, that knowing, that feeling.

Your perspective on life situations can make or break you. Why don’t you challenge your current perspective and see where this takes your thinking?

Having a good day?  Even Angels have good days.

Morning Sunrise

Clarabelle.orgLeave a comment

On your journey of life, don’t forget to watch the morning sunrise. There is just something about a stunning morning sunrise that just puts you in real awe of the moment. Tomorrow morning, I urge you to wake up early in time to watch the beautiful morning sunrise and in that moment remember how you feel.

Wishing you the best of days today.

I am in a poetic mood this morning, this one is for you, take it all in and just “Breathe”.

Breathe

Breathe in life,
energy from the sun.
Breathe in hope,
memories have begun.
Breathe in faith,

Breathe in love,

Breathe in you,
Breathe in me.
Breathe in together.
Breathe in we.

When the heart is happy

In celebration of reaching over 27,000 visitors to this Clarabelle Blog, I was inspired to write the poem below for you:

You Are Beautiful

A flash in the pan,
A speckle of dust.
A grain of sand,
This is a must.

A soft goodbye,
A slight raindrop.
Sun in the sky,
A beep beep bop.

Happy smiles,
Joyful cuddles.
The sweetest kiss,
Dancing in the puddles.

For all is here,
All is now.
You are beautiful,
I love you, WOW!!

Clarabelle Quotes, When a rainbow smiles

Where is the Beauty?

Where is the beauty?
Where does it go?

Here comes the dancing,
Here comes the show.

Open your eyes,
Let the world in.

Open your heart,
And forever you’ll win.

Time is so precious,
Treasure it well.

Believe in your talents,
They’re a magical spell.

For the beauty is in you,
It goes with your heart.

Know this is true,
Down to every last part.

Snap Happy

Balmaha Bay

Today I am going to go on a day trip to Balmaha Bay, Balloch, Scotland with my mum and during that trip I am going to be “snap happy” as I will be taking some beautiful photos for my new eBook that’s coming out, “It’s All About Gratitude”.  I am excited about doing this and it will also be really lovely to spend a day with my mum.

I love Balmaha Bay, for me it is a place of deep beauty and peaceful tranquility and sometimes this is just what the doctor ordered.  🙂

In 2011 I wrote a poem about Balmaha, I have already shared it on this blog before, but here it is again, just in case you missed it first time round:

Balmaha Lake
A frozen Balmaha Lake January 2011

Sweet Balmaha Bay

Balmaha, an inspiring place,
Oh how I love, your beautiful face.
The silent lake, speaks many words,
A magical paradise, beneath the flight of birds.
My soul’s at home, when I visit you,
I feel at one, below the sky so blue.
As I tie a yellow ribbon, around the old oak tree,
I appreciate your world, for all to see.
The air is clean, fresh and new,
The shimmering sunlight, makes a stunning view.
And the many boats, who sail in leisure,
Uplifting spirits, you provide great pleasure.
In hail or rain, sunshine or snow,
Your tranquil beauty, will always show.
For the depths of your heart, are in everyone,
Sweet Balmaha Bay under the horizon sun.

 Poem By Clarabelle, 2011

Wherever you go today and whatever you do, I do hope it brings you sweet happiness and fulfillment, much love to you Clarabelle.  🙂

Change from within

Clarabelle.org9 Comments

Soul Development

Since January last year I have been making a lot of changes in my life, the inner changes came first and then the outer changes started to happen.  I decided that before I made any outer changes I ensured I was happy on the inside first, so I did a lot of work on my “soul development” and I truly feel more like,well, “me”. 🙂

One of the changes that I wanted to make and was genuinely excited to make, was changing my hair colour from black to blonde and I want to share with you a photo of the transformation process (below).  I love my new blonde look, it hasn’t made me any happier from within because I was already happy but it has given me a renewed and re-energised feeling – “out with the old and in with the new” and I feel really great.

Clarabelle's New Blonde Look
Clarabelle’s New Blonde Look

I love my hairdresser, I think she did a really great job as it has been a long process to get there over a 6 week period, thank you Yvonne Lennon Holton and such a great friend too.

What do you think of my new blonde look?

Inside Changes

I want you to think about this, before you make any external changes in your life think about how happy you feel first on the inside.  I urge you to make the inside changes first and then you know that any external changes you make after that, will be an added bonus to your already happy self.

Wishing you a day filled with inner happiness and contentment, lots of love to you today, Clarabelle.

I was listening to positive affirmations this morning by Louise Hay and one of the things she said really stuck with me, she said “give out that which you wish to receive”.  Wow, I feel this is so true, the more beauty you give out to this Universe the more it will come back to you – like a boomerang that has picked up more goodness along the way. Here is a wee poem just about that, hopefully it will help you to think about what postive changes you want to make in your life.  Lots of love to you today, Clarabelle.

You Get What You Give

You get what you give
So give a lot
You receive what you think
Look at what you’ve got
If you want to change all
You know what to do
Because Heart, mind and emotions
These feelings become true

When I woke up this morning the first words I wrote on my notepad were “Love is my reflection”, this will be a future song and I wrote this poem especially for you.

Lots of love to you today, Clarabelle

From Venus to Mars

She looks in the mirror
What does she see?
She sees the light
Infinite eternity
For love is her reflection
Shining in her soul
Love is the answer
Love is the goal
Like an angel without wings
She sings to the stars
The Universe is calling
From Venus to Mars
Happy is her home
Happiness is her now
And with her beautiful childlike spirit
She smiles and takes a bow

Moonlight Sky from Clarabelle’s Back Garden 24.07.13

I worked all through the night yesterday and just before I went to bed at 5.45am for a few hours I looked out of my patio doors which lead into my garden and took this photograph of the stunning moonlight.  I had one of my BEST days yesterday, I feel the stunning moonlight gave me some beautiful energy that created moments of magic throughout my day.  I am very grateful for all that I have and I am very grateful for you here right now. Thank you, beautiful you, love Clarabelle.

The Stunning Moonlight

It’s 5.45am, I’ve worked all through the night
I look out of my window and see the stunning moonlight
I step into the garden, the birds tweet, tweet, tweet
The air is so tranquil, my heart whispers a beat
I am grateful for this moment, so special and rare
I gaze at the white circle, all day I could stare
I feel its magic, penetrating me
It’s watching me closely, setting me free
I feel its energy, uplifting my soul
It’s connecting with my spirit, engaging my goal
My day has not ended but yet it begins
My bed is calling but my heart it still sings
Goodbye Mr Moonlight, I’ll see you again
I enjoyed our conversation, now I’ll put down my pen

Peace in her Heart

peace in her heart

I have a lovely feeling of peace and contentment flowing through my body this morning, I am aware of it and treasure it right now.  I just had to write, here is what came out.  I hope you enjoy.  May your happy spirit touch other hearts today.  Love Clarabelle

Peace in her Heart

She woke up, with peace in her heart today
No inner battles, in her way
The fight has gone, war no more
Everything leads, to the fulfilment door
Now it’s different, now she can see
That an opened heart, will let this be
She knows that her gift, travels afar
She knows that her energy, raises the bar
And as the soft wind blows, contentment plays a tune
Happiness in the air, goodnight Mr Moon
This misty morning, is full of white
She feels its presence, she is the light
Her breath is silent, and simply pure
Because she is so certain, she is so sure
That all her dreams, are alive inside
The vision is here, nothing to hide
For her soul is connected, dancing free
Her spirit is full, of happy energy
But who is, this miracle she?
She can be “he” and she is “me”

I AM THAT I AM

Clarabelle.org7 Comments

I am that I am

Growing from Within

I am very heavily into my own self development and as I feel myself growing from within I feel it is stripping back built up beliefs that don’t serve me well and returning me back to who I really am.  I am very aware of this change happening within me and I feel the dreams I had as a child, which I let go of for 30 years, finding their way back to me – like an inner calling with drive and purpose.

Here is what I AM becoming more aware of each day in my life:

  • Simple things like listening to music that moves me, music that makes me want to sing and dance;
  • Songwriting and producing music;
  • Being in touch with my inner emotions and open expressions of feelings of love;
  • Holding my face up to the sunlight and breathing in the fresh air;
  • Playing, having fun and laughing…..a lot!!
  • Feeling excited at the start of each new day, answering the question, What will I create today?
  • Refreshing my soul in the rain – I love the rain; 
  • Having lighthearted fun conversations with my best friends;
  • Having trusting, openhearted conversations with my mum… not minutes….for hours;
  • Coming alive in the presence of children – my nieces and nephew;
  • Feeling INSPIRED, right now I feel inspired, right now in this very moment;
  • Being so very grateful and being very mindful of this – it comes naturally to me, my attitude of gratitude;
  • My deepest appreciation for solitude, I know when I need this, I know I like to have my own quiet, creative space at times;
  • Reaching out to other people and confidently sharing all of the above and more;
  • Appreciating the beauty and miracle of a rainbow, the moonlight and the midnight stars;
  • I sincerely value what I am attracting into my life right now, there is so much abundance, I feel elated;

5 WORDS

I read books, I read a lot of books and I take different bits and pieces of the knowledge from these books and apply them to what feels right for me. I don’t always believe everything I read, however I am very much open to what others have to say and value their thoughts and contributions.  I know I am becoming a better person, a better version of me, I know I am the healthiest I have ever been in my whole life and I am that I am.  Those last 5 words of the preceding sentence “I AM THAT I AM” this for me is very powerful, I felt and believed that before I even read about the Power of I AM.  I am using “I AM” in my thoughts everyday, it makes a special connection with me and I feel its power.  Below is an example of what I AM and what I say to myself everyday now (this list is not exhaustive):

I AM love
I AM inspiration
I AM a wonderfully creative and full of imagination
I AM  a successful poet
I AM super healthy
I AM positive energy and colourfully vibrant
I AM happy and fulfilled
I AM a Marathoner
I AM super confident
I AM super rich in the fullness of life
I AM inspiring hearts all over the world
I AM a very successful blogger
I AM the very best Coach and Mentor
I AM a successful music producer and singer/songwriter
I AM wonderfully happy in my new home and environment
I AM prosperous and attract all that I want into my life
I AM beautiful

I AM THAT I AM and I have every faith in the Power of I AM

The above feels right for me and I would encourage you to apply the Power of I AM in your daily life, however, ONLY if you feel it purely connects with you, you feel it touch and inspire your inner being, I am a great believer that what works for me, doesn’t always work for you.  This works for me but if it doesn’t connect and work for you, something else will and it will find you.

May you be inspired today to find out that very thing that connects and works for you.  Much love to you today, Clarabelle

Pure sunlight, it is beautiful, truthful and spiritual for me.  I remember when I wrote the poem below and how I felt writing it at the time, I felt at peace and at one with myself, it was very early in the morning and I knew I was connected to the power of the universe. Let the silence between each line, awaken your soul and connect your spirit to a higher purpose.  Your sun shines from within, let it radiate beauty and inspire other hearts around you today.  Much love to you, Clarabelle.

The Serenity of the Sun

The wisdom, is in the space,

The silent thought, upon thy face.

Vibrations of hope, joy and love,

The serenity of the sun, as I look above.

Between the lines, opportunity awaits,

Creation of the soul, happiness at the gates.

The heart softly beats, today begins,

This morning I welcome, gratitude wins.

One Year On

Happy Birthday Blog 🙂

Today, I celebrate the birthday of this blog, it is one year old today.  I love putting my heart, soul, passion and energy into this blog and I feel it is evolving as I am evolving.

Inner Growth

I didn’t plan to do this blog, it wasn’t one of my goals but I do remember the day, one year ago, when I decided to set it up here on wordpress.  Prior to that, I had been writing lots and lots of poetry and I was gaining so much inner growth and special connection from my creative self expressions.  Something just clicked with me that day, on 20 April 2012, there was a heightened moment of realisation, a momentary illumination of the heart, that I should share my poetry and other creative expressions on a blog.  I just felt there was this strong inner calling to do that – so I did, I acted on it straight away, with no hesitation, it was a very enlightened experience indeed.

The Story of My Life

It was the right thing to do, this blog is part of me now, it’s the story of my life, the sharing of my secrets, it demonstrates the strength in my vulnerability and the love in my heart.  It has been soul baring, deeply moving and heartwarming at times, I have shared poetic reflections that I used to only whisper to my shadow.  This blog is about who I am and what I am becoming but I know I would not get the same fulfillment, deepest gratitude and satisfaction from it, if it wasn’t connecting with other souls – it has to inspire hearts – it has to help YOU to evolve and advance too.  

I want for you what I want for myself and that is to truly live life, to truly love life, to be who you are, to answer your inner calling, to shape the right way forward for yourself in alignment with your values, to have peace and knowing in your heart that you are all that you ever need to be, to have faith and trust in your ability to use your creative imagination to advance you forward in life and attract a never ending abundance of all that you have ever wanted.  You are on the path to personal evolution, you never came off it, it’s time now to enjoy the scenery and truly live in this moment now……..as I write this, I hear the birds singing outside – in the beauty and gratitude of each precious moment the miracle of life right now will always give us what we need.

Go create with pure passion in your heart, for the tide of opportunity wants you to surf its waves and refresh the soul of the deepest oceans.

Thank you for reading my posts, I truly mean that from the core of my heart.

Much love to you today, Clarabelle

To Become

Clarabelle.org21 Comments

Magical

I want to share a very beautiful classical piece of music with you today, created by the Italian Composer, Ludovico Einaudi, from his classical album “Divenire” meaning “to become”.  I absolutely love this classical piece, it really does connect deeply with my heart and soul – it simply sounds quite magical to me.  When I listen to this album track, I feel it takes me on a mystical journey into the deepest realms of my imagination, where faith joins hands with dreams and softly dances under the starry skies –  it moves me, it soothes me and it inspires me.  Thank you Ludovico

I encourage you to listen to this wonderful piece of musical art and whilst doing so think about this question:

What does “to become” mean to you?

I believe, that in order for you to have all that you want to have, you have to BE and DO first – in that order:

1.  Be
2.  Do
3.  Have

“To Become” my friend is your answer.

There is a star in your heart and it is twinkling at me, I can’t see it, but I can feel it, you are very special, believe that, become that.

Love Clarabelle

Full of Character and Excitement

I was looking after my 3 year old niece the other week whilst her parents went off to pick up their new puppy dog.

I love watching my little niece she is such a funny, cheery little girl full of character and excitement. She was happily looking out of the window into my back garden when she shouted “look Auntie Claire, they’re dancing”, I asked her what was dancing and she said “the trees are dancing” and she began to copy the swaying movements of the trees blowing in the wind outside. It was so cute to watch, I smiled and I thought to myself what a truly wonderful positive perception she has on Mother Nature.

Such an Amazing “Mummy”

Later on that day I kept thinking about my niece’s words and how she could have said something completely different using a more negative connotation, but she didn’t. I then thought about my younger sister, who is such an amazing “Mummy” and how positive and happy she is. I just know that my sister’s love for nature and optimistic outlook on life has made such a positive influence on my little niece’s young life.

It made me think about how important it is for us all to choose to have a positive mindset and positive take on the world. Like in those famous lyrics sung by Whitney Houston “I believe the children are our future” – I do hope the trees stay dancing!!

True Beauty

The “roots determine the fruits”, what does this mean?  It means that if you work on the root of a problem rather than the symptom you can create everlasting change.  Nourish the root with love, that’s what my next inspirational quote for you is all about.  May your day be filled with love and encouragement, Clarabelle.

Nourish it with Love
Nourish it with Love

“True beauty is within the seed,

nourish it with love,

and then love will grow.”

Dreams in her Soul

Who is She?

I write with ‘she’ in mind. Who is she?  What can she become?  What does she dream about?  What hopes are in her heart?  What happiness does she bring to others?  What if she just lived?  What if she became alive, right now, in this moment?  What wonders would she bring to this world?  “She” may be you, “She”, may be me.  Who is she?  This next poem is inspired by just that.  May the beauty of each day, shine in your soul forever. Much love to you today, Clarabelle

Dreams in her Soul

She writes with love, she writes with light;

Early in the morning, and last thing at night.

She opens her heart, to everyone;

Sharing her secrets, thinking of fun.

A happy soul, she shares it with glee;

Positive thoughts, changing me.

Hope is on the horizon, look up to the sun;

Shadows paint a pathway, over where she has run.

Beauty is in her heartbeat, shining afar;

Smiles last forever, and wherever you are.

She is a miracle, a symbol of life;

Forgotten are her days, of trouble and strife.

Her life has moved on, she dances alive;

Dreams in her soul, love in her heart does thrive.

My Soul is Free

Clarabelle.org5 Comments

I am thinking about my happy childhood today, so I decide to take a snapshot memory from one of these true moments and share it with you today.  Release the child inside of you, just for a moment, just for today, be that child once more, it feels so loving and carefree.  Lots of love, Clarabelle.  

My Soul is Free

My Soul is Free

I am 8 years old, I am playing in the swing park and look up to the pretty red sky on a sweet summers night. I see a million lights sparkling in the distance, like the most precious jewels I have ever seen, they mesmerize me.  It feels like I am in a hypnotic state, my heart feels happy, my soul is free, I dream, I visualise my future….

“I’ll be there one day”, I say;

Where?….

Here, right now, I can be there any moment of any day, for my childlike imagination, can take me there.  Whenever I want to go there and without physical travel, I can instantly be there.

Where is there?

There is “Happiness” my friend, Happiness is my home and my heart has always lived there.

Happiness can be accessed at any moment and at any time of the day.  Give up the ghost of darkness, for your inner light is special and it is connected to an abundance of pure love.  May happiness dance around you today and always.  Love Clarabelle.  This next poem is for you.  Have a beautiful day.  

Happiness Dances Around You
Happiness Dances Around You

Happiness Dances Around You

Oh sweet and  precious moment, I cherish you now;

Long have I awaited, to free me from this how.

I feel my heart glisten, spreading happy thoughts;

Releasing me from pain, undoing the difficult knots.

For once when I was sad, life did get me down;

A painted smile upon my face, masking the frown.

But even through that anguish, a light in me did shine;

The beauty of an open door, a white butterfly was the sign.

Today life is on the up, I’m reaching many heights;

My spirit is alive and I’m flying amongst the kites.

Light as a feather, I’m nourished at the soul;

My eyes sparkle like diamonds, when once they looked like coal.

So pick up the pace of life, your heart has a story to tell;

Happiness dances around you, it’s time to break out of your shell

Love is Free-Flowing

Clarabelle.org11 Comments

Sometimes when I look into someone’s eyes, I just know if their soul is truly enlightened with love.  I know they want to be really happy and maybe look happy on the outside but the window to their soul never lies, it’s all about the inside.  I experienced that recently with someone and decided to write this poem for them and send it to them.  I hope you like it.  May your soul be filled with love and light today.  Much love to you Clarabelle.

love is free flowing
love is free-flowing

“Love is Free-Flowing”

I see in your eyes, no light or love;

Dead in the moment, but the rainbow is above.

You attract what you become, not just what you’ve got;

Love is free-flowing, and cannot be bought.

It’s nice to have freedom, choice and dreams;

But to enjoy it alone, bursts a heart at the seams.

Change your direction, take your soul along the path;

There you’ll meet true beauty, and with faith, your other half.

For sometimes we look so hard, and still cannot see;

Sometimes the ‘law of attraction’, works mysteriously.

It’s not in ‘the secret’, or a special treasure box;

It’s not hidden in a cave, or where the wishing well talks.

It’s found in your spirit, and blooms in the sunlight;

It brightens up your mood, full of happiness and delight.

Your paradise of love, will always find a way;

Seek truth in each moment, and loves light will shine on you today.

Little Plant

Clarabelle.org2 Comments

It’s amazing what can grow out of a tiny little seed.  By giving the right care, attention and nutrition, what at first is like a tender little plant, can turn into a strong, gracious and radiant tree.  Take a look at yourself, take time to nurture at the roots and this fulfilling nourishment will create an abundance of graciousness and radiance within you.  This poem is all about that.  Wishing you a fabulous day full of warmth, energy and loving nurture, Clarabelle.

Little Plant

    It was passed to me, with love and care,

A tiny seed, no leaves it did wear.

Its eyes perched, above the yellow pot,

Searching for the sun, so warm and hot.

I gave it water, I fed it well,

I’m sure it listened, I could tell.

It grew stronger, day by day,

Branching out, in a wonderous way.

It took time and patience from me,

Then this little plant, turned into a tree.

And now it blooms, in my garden so fair,

Covered in leaves, it no longer is bare.

The right nutrients, did it good,

Sowing seeds with love, is the best food.

If you were a colour

Clarabelle.orgLeave a comment

Don’t you just love colours, sunny yellow, ocean blue, snowy white  – don’t they just seem to uplift your mood – well, they certainly put me higher spirits.  We all radiate beauty, like the spectrum of a rainbow, our colours shine from within and impact outwardly on the people we meet.  If you were a colour, what colour would you be?   Today, I would be a gold star, shining bright and feeling happy.

If you were a colour, what colour would you be?

Would you be bright orange or green like a tree?

Or maybe you’d be blue, like the deepest sea

A snowy white or a yellow bumble bee

Whatever your colour, whatever you see

Radiates beauty within you and me

A daring red, if that’s what you’ll be

Or a silver moon, just unlock the key

The rainbow is smiling, I’m filled with glee

Magical colours, can make you feel so happy
