The need of a writer......

In the Words of, Leo Rosten ,

"A writer writes not because he is educated but because he is driven by the need to communicate. Behind the need to communicate is the need to share. Behind the need to share is the need to be understood. The writer wants to be understood much more than he wants to be respected or praised or even loved. And that perhaps, is what makes him different from others."

From here I take off:
Communication is a need
The widening of the eyes
a flutter of the lashes
a blink of the eye
a twitch of the lips
a moue
a wrinkle on the brow
a lift of the corner of the lips
a movement of the eyebrow.....
all this and more
please do explore
in the here
in the now
when you move
Its fun and how?
 
The Pen and pencil on paper write
to share and be understood
more than affection is the need
to communicate to be alive !

A way of living.......


This  came to me for a reason,
the first time I believe was many years ago
A marble statue
Which I did ignore
The next when I did Vipassana
Just to take a break
From this breakneck speed, world
Being an ascetic, I did not fake.
then a few years later
to be precise 2008
Mindfulness, unconditional love & forgivness,
was dished out on my plate.
I toyed with the idea to follow the path
but since then and now
many dreams crossed my heart
This mindful way of life,
 today,is my firm belief
is the relationship I was looking for,
it gives my soul relief.
Years of hunting searching
will never get you anywhere
It will happen when its meant to
Yes I  now know I am there!
