ITS BEEN A RAINBOWS & UNICORNS KIND OF DAY (Explored)

“Disembodied, my mind takes over

and takes me far beyond my imagination

where Unicorns play and day by day

the rainbows grow ever brighter.” - AP

WHY WORRY - DIRE STRAITS

 

Hello everyone. I hope you are all well. I am 11 days into my self-isolation. I am doing fine. Had some pain in my left lung for a couple of days and some palpitations, but have been singing trying to clear it and seems to be working. Slept much better last night and actually had a day without dozing off, filled with sunshine, cats and an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for all the blessings bestowed on me. Thanking God for all the people who are looking out for me. I don't feel alone or lonely. How can I be lonely with 8 cats surrounding me with love anyway! : 0) I spend a lot of time in solitude, retreating from the world in times of illness and/or mental anguish (the two seem often to go hand in hand). This is my norm. The clocks have sprung forward 1 hour, so it is actually still sunny daylight out there, but a freezing cold wind has whipped up from the North, so I came indoors. Take care everyone. I recorded a song today and am playing around with snippets of video taken in my gardens. Hope to upload it soon. Love to you all. Stay hopeful, my friends xxxxx

 

Paint a Rainbow with your smile

let Hope form wings and let it fly

help each other; the extra mile

may save a life not let one die

colour the world with good not bad

keep your distance but deep inside

hold those you love close to your heart

to keep them safe we must abide

the birds still sing and so do I

blessed are my gardens; a heaven outside

safely cloistered behind these walls

the world in chaos; let peace reside

in our hearts and souls as one

minds in unison; wheels within wheels

since this crisis first begun

Clap for Carers; the ones who heal

eight o'clock every night

stand outside and smile and wave

clap hands together and set the world alight

for kindred spirits and the brave

our world has changed beyond recognition

we must adapt so we survive

let our plans come to fruition

beat this disease so we can thrive

I've never seen so many neighbours

in the village there is a Hub

caring for others their selfless labours

include me in their beautiful club

a lot of them don't even know me

but still they ask me what I need

I'm on the inside but they are free

I hope one day I will be freed

at the moment it's not so bad

I have my cats, my gardens and you

I try very hard not to be sad

but I miss my friends and family too

It's not the same to virtually see them

I cannot get a hug or kiss

I know it's not just me that is condemned

to live this new way, but still I miss

the freedom and the privilege

of walking to the shops

all those things we take for granted

I was living in a bubble but now it's popped

but I still have oodles of imagination

can paint a rainbow with my smile

I hope you like my funky creation

Unicorns will never EVER go out of style! ; 0)
