Dreams are for living
Don’t worry me,
for time is gold,
a miserable mind,
can never be sold.
Don’t worry me,
for love is strong,
hatred is wasted,
and is always wrong.
Don’t worry me,
for dreams are for living,
lazy never wins,
and joy is in giving.
Don’t worry me,
for strength lives within,
negative thinking,
won’t make your heart sing.
Don’t worry me,
for now I am free,
flowing and growing,
I let myself be.

When times are tough
Don’t despair,
when times are tough,
forever moments,
are not meant to be rough.
Keep your head high,
believe in good days,
have faith in your future,
your wonderful ways.
Behind the scenes,
you always shine,
remember that,
all will be fine.
See yourself smile,
laughing again,
knowing that soon,
you’ll be free from pain.

Forever inspiring.
I know you’re there,
the best part of you,
waiting for your moment,
so you can live true.
I know you feel,
hope in your eyes,
abundance surrounds you,
dreams of surprise.
I know you want,
to give life a shot,
achieving success,
fullfilled by the lot.
I know your heart,
shares love everyday,
forever inspiring,
in your special way.

Creation becomes you.
Your wisdom speaks truth,
in all that you do,
flowing and growing,
magnetically to you.
It whispers knowings,
from days gone by,
captivating choices,
helping your why.
No filters required,
intuition sets free,
an inner magic,
letting you see.
Your life it matters,
everything is true,
when knowledge appears,
with no hint or clue.
Beyond each moment,
deep in your heart,
creation becomes you,
right from the start.

Tomorrow is a chance
A very warm hello to you. Every Thursday is Poetry Corner. My poems can be soulful, loving, joyful and encouraging – all at the one time. Here’s a happy one for you.
Happy Dance
Choose to make, each brand new day, full of life, everything your way. With a smiling heart, and uplifted soul, start your day, to reach any goal. You don't need sunshine, or rainbows above, give all your energy, and lots of self love. So decide today, tomorrow is a chance, to dive out of bed, and do a happy dance.

Giving you a sign
Good day to you. Every Thursday is Poetry Corner. Enjoy the poem below from the Clarablle Collection of Original Poems.
Lucky White Feather
I see it floating, passing me by, falling so softly, down from the sky. They say it is lucky, a gift from above, a symbol of connection, filled with true love. I follow it quietly, drifting in time, freely dancing, simply sublime. This lucky white feather, represents life, truth and tranquility, no trouble or strife. So next time you see one, believe its for you, giving you a sign, that you'll make it through. By Clarabelle, London, UK Created on 20 September 2022 Posted to Blog on 29 September 2022
Some days I am just full of energy, like today. I was in bed fairly early last night and woke up at 3am as bright as a button. It was pitch black outside but I thought to myself, get up and do what you need/want to do, so I did, rather than stare into the darkness of the room.
Sometimes I write my best stuff at this time in the morning, I really do and I love it when that happens.
So treat yourself to an early night and wake up early morning, fully alive and ready to take on your dreams. Remember to take time to watch the morning sun come up, it is such a beautiful scene.
Lots of sunny love to you today, Clarabelle
I woke up this morning feeling peaceful but alert inside, and then I said to myself, “everything is going to be okay, you’ve got control of this life”.
I then received a telephone call from a lovely friend and we were laughing, joking and we had such an inspirational conversation. The conversation was about him listening and acting upon his heart and the truly wonderful, positive outcomes that have come from this.
Listening By Doing
What if you listened to your heart and I mean “listening by doing”, that’s right, doing what your heart feels. Often we hear the whispers of what touches our heart and soul but we don’t really do anything about it…….but what if you did?
Think of a time when you did listen and act on your heart’s desires……..I’m thinking about a moment right now and it is making me smile…….it always included my writings and making someone laugh, smile or give them gentle words of warmth and encouragement to ease their current pain.
Trust that your heart knows the answer and demonstrate in your “doing” what you hear.
Much love to you, Clarabelle
It’s easy to feel frustrated that things are moving as fast as you would like them to, that progress seems slow or non-existent at present. However, have faith and patience that the results will come and that you will achieve the right outcomes for you. Frustration can be a good thing, it just means you’re ready, you’re ready for CHANGE……and once you’re ready, well anything can happen, believe me….and it positively will.
Don’t rush the process, because in time the rewards will come, so keep putting in every effort to the little things and big changes will appear.
Positive change is on it’s way for you.
Love Clarabelle
Over the last few years I have been writing lots and lots of poems, words of inspiration and motivation. These writings have come from my inner wisdom, my corporate business knowledge and true and heartfelt life experiences. All of my writings have been compiled into 10 books, which are currently available on Amazon. These books went “live” on Amazon in June this year, with the wonderful help from a very successful editor in America, Steve Mann. To my absolute delight and amazement, last night, I read some truly wonderful 5 star book reviews and I wanted to share some of them with you today:
On my book, Clarabelle’s Musings:
“This full compilation of Claire’s positive thoughts, inspiring messages, and motivating jottings will make you feel like you just drank 6 energy drinks, without the heart palpitations. Her words pick you up, help you view your life in a different, more positive way, and provide you with the belief that you can accomplish anything.”
On my book, Clarabelle’s Affirmations:
“Psychologists and therapists have long known that affirmations can help us all to stay on course in the goals we set for ourselves. Heck, even Oprah has spoken about how important it is to have daily affirmations for yourself. Claire, through her prose and poetry, offers us affirmations that we can use on a daily basis to help us to set goals and achieve them.”
On my book, Clarabelle’s Keys to Happiness:
“We all know that to be happy all the time is an impossibility because without sadness, we would not truly appreciate happiness. Claire through her prose and poems, reminds us of what it is like to be happy and how we as individuals are responsible for our own happiness. Through her words, she unveils the secrets that really can help us all to achieve happiness more often.”
On my book, Clarabelle’s Christmas Joys:
“Who doesn’t love Christmas? Well, actually, there are a lot of people who don’t. But Claire’s words bring us back to the true reality of what Christmas is all about. It’s about the joy of family, the appreciation of the blessings we have, the use of our talents to share with others to help them, and the love of keeping the people who matter to you, close in your life. Claire’s superlative use of words remind us all of the true meaning of Christmans and how we should be thankful for the joys we have in our lives. I loved it. I love Christmas. Why not read it like I did, and feel empowered to access the true Christmas Joys.”
On my book, Clarabelle Presents Nature’s Gifts:
“Claire’s expressive words bring a new appreciation to all that is nature. Her prose and poems lighten the spirit and make the heart sing with joy.”
On my book, Clarabelle’s Moving Motivations:
“What are we without human motivation? Simply a shell of a human body that walks around with animation, but no direction. Claire’s writings provide motivation to all of us to dream, believe in our dreams, and take the steps necessary to achieve our dreams.”
On my book, Clarabelle’s Heart and Soul:
“People don’t often make the connection of importance between the heart and the soul. Of course, we all know, without our hearts, our souls will wander. But Claire’s exquisite jottings show how closely our hearts and souls are connected, not just within our own bodies, but also in how we connect with other hearts and souls. Claire, in her quiet writings, paint a clear picture of how dependent we as fragile humans are upon not just our own hearts and souls, but the people we touch in our lives and those who touch us in our lives.”
On my book, Clarabelle’s Creative Inspirations:
“Claire Murray is a talented and gifted author and poet. Her jottings inspire me and make me feel positive, happy, and make my heart sing with joy. Thank you Claire, for sharing your gifts with us. I thoroughly enjoyed all of your books. Getting up every morning and reading one of your prose or poems gave me a burst of positive energy to start my day out right and helped me to see normal things that happened throughout my day in a positive light.”
On my book, Clarabelle’s Poems of Love:
“When Claire writes about love, it really is a Splendid Thing. Through her words she is able to transport the reader back to young love, first love, and mature love. It brings back the beautiful memories of falling in love and staying in love.”
These reviews were written a few months ago and I honestly didn’t know I had made such an impact with the person reading them. This makes me very happy. It just goes to show, and I truly believe this, when YOU are ready, “The Time Will Come” when your inner butterfly will spread its wings and flutter to the hearts of others.
Thank you for being here, I love you for it.
All my love for a beautiful day, Clarabelle

Below is an extract from one of the books:
Be Grateful for Life
Create ‘flow’ in your life,let worries melt away,
Yesterday has gone but the learning can stay.
Tomorrow is not here, live for today,
Enjoy each precious moment, in every way.
Be grateful for life, the moon and the sun,
Be grateful for your family and everyone.
Smile at your neighbours and the stranger on the street,
For your smile is contagious, to all that you meet.
Happy is the heart, that glows from within,
Embrace life and love, and forever you’ll win.
Thank you for reading this post, I really do appreciate it.
Lots of love, Clarabelle
