This Imaginary Life

If this is a dream

ClarabelleLeave a comment

I wasn’t planning on sharing the following poem – it was just free flowing poetic randomness at the time. I’m not even sure I wrote it – if that makes any sense?

My little notebook, with various scribblings, poetic notes and doodles, was sitting on my desk, facing my window. Throughout the night, it was very blustery and windy outside, so I had to close my open window, as my curtains where blowing about like crazy.

When I sat at my desk this morning, I noticed my notebook was open, as per usual, and obviously, the wind had turned the pages over. (Photo below).

This was a clear sign for me, to share the poem with YOU. The message, however you take it, is for YOU…

THIS IMAGINARY LIFE

If this is a dream
How do I awake?
When I fall asleep
What dreams do I make?

Expand your mind
Open the door
To a wider Universe
Where less is more

Thoughts are not real
My eyes cannot see
This imaginary life
Is deeper than free

My smile has power
My heart is forever
The bridge of hope
Arches rainbow and river

~Clarabelle

It seems for me, the poem is not finished – I feel it needs another verse…..so here goes…

So dream in colour

Dance in light

Magical is everywhere

When you sleep at night

I wish for you, the answers to all your problems and the inner strength to brave on.

Lots of love.

The Story of…..

You are the magic

The Story of Three Little Angels
by Clarabelle

…Three Little Angels

Here’s an enchanting poetic story I wrote back in 2013. It’s taken me over 11 years, but now I am in the process of turning this magical poem into a short story book.

May you find peace of heart in its endearing message…

Three Little Angels

I walked to the rainbow’s edge,
This was a dream come true.
Three little Angels sat on a ledge,
Singing, whatever you want, you can do.

I thought to myself, is this for real?
Stunned in amazement, happiness I feel.
I am blessed, with the greatest treasure,
I said to the Angels, it is my pleasure.

I pondered for a moment, about what they said,
Random thoughts went through my head.
Whatever I want, I can do,
Surely this is a dream come true.

How do I do it? I asked all three,
What is the answer? What can it be?
The Angels smiled and their eyes did glisten,
I said, please tell me Angels, I will listen.

They gently whispered into my ear,
My precious child, you are here.
You are the dream, you are the mission,
You are your life, you don’t need permission.

You can choose, you can decide,
Let your beautiful heart, be your guide.
Create the space, free up your mind,
Your inner glow, is one of a kind.

You are true, you are wise,
Your passionate heart, never lies.
It is honest, all of the time,
It will beat, without rhythm or rhyme.
Because is always knows, what’s best for you,
Trust that your talents will always shine through.

Oh little Angels, what names are you given?
My name is “Faith” I am always in you living.
My name is “Believe” I am always by your side.
My name is “Magic” and in you I reside.

If this is true, I would have seen you before,
I didn’t see you, when darkness was at my door.
My dearest friend, we were always there,
Holding your hands, feeling your prayer.

Our light you did not see, because you didn’t know,
That you always, had this inner glow.
The midnight sky, is so vast and black,
Yet stars appear and light comes back.

You have that power, you are so bright,
You are the magic, every single night.
When the sun goes down and darkness falls,
You sparkle in this Universe, through all the walls.

We are here because of you,
Your happiness now, let us through.
We share this story, so you can tell,
All your friends about this magical spell.

It protects your spirit, like a rainbow of love,
Showering you with energy, sent from above.
When you wake up in the morning, you will know,

Faith, Believe and Magic, 

Three Little Angels in a row.

This is one of my favourite original quotes and the excerpt is taking from a short poetic story I wrote many years ago. My plan is to turn the story into a book one day….watch this space!

“The midnight sky is vast and black, yet stars appear and light comes back.”

Rough Patches of Life

On the pathway to your dreams you are most certainly going to have to get over some rough patches. There may be a cluster of them all at once or more sporadic than that, over a lengthier period of time, but regardless they will be there, eager to put you to the challenge.

Are you up for the challenge?  I surely am, it’s only a “rough patch”, how rough can it get?

Like stormy waters or a rocky road, these challenges make your adventure even more worthwhile because there are many lessons in these hidden bumps.

See if you can change your perception towards the rough patches of life, see them as part of the mystery, as part of the muscle building process for your inner strength. These so called rough patches, strengthen your character and prepare you for the mountain ahead. How big is your mountain? You see, I reckon if it’s not big enough, if it’s not scary enough, then you need a bigger, much higher mountain to climb and that means a bigger more ambitious vision for yourself.

My mountain climb is scary but scary in a good way, the challenge excites me and I see myself, ALWAYS getting to the top…..I am happiest climbing the mountain, especially when I look back and see how far I have come – wow did I really make that journey?

WOW yourself today with your big mountain climb challenge, go on, I dare you!!

Happier days are now, love to you, Clarabelle
