Starting a new life...in a new area...in a new home. Saw this marker at a store last week and knew it would be the perfect addition to get my new garden going. To those who know me, you know how close Atticus was to me and after having to say goodbye last month, this "find" will bring me much joy when I am sitting outside and remembering all of our good times. This song by Karla Bonoff says it all and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, whether you lose a friend, family member or a beloved pet.

TOOL - Third Eye

 

A child's rhyme stuck in my head

It said that life is but a dream

I've spent so many years in question

To find I've known this all along

So good to see you

I've missed you so much

So glad it's over

I've missed you so much

Came out to watch you play

Why are you running away?

Came out to watch you play

Why are you running?

 

Shrouding all the ground around me

Is this holy crow above me

Black as holes within a memory

And blue as our new second sun

I stick my hand into his shadow

To pull the pieces from the sand

Which I attempt to reassemble

To see just who I might have been

I do not recognize the vessel

But the eyes seem so familiar

Like phosphorescent desert buttons

Singing one familiar song

So good to see you

I've missed you so much

So glad it's over

I've missed you so much

Came out to watch you play

Why are you running away?

Came out to watch you play

Why are you running away?

 

Prying open my third eye

🎶🎶🎶

 

The telegraph cables hum

And few can decipher who the message is from

And it deliver it quietly

Cause some don't get much company

 

The harbour becomes the sea

And lighting the house keeps it collision free

Understand the lay of the land

And don't let it hurt you

Or it will be the first to

 

The water, the water

Didn't realize

It's dangerous size

The mountain, the mountain

Came to recognize

It's a steep and rocky sides

More than realized

 

Pale as a pile of bones

You hope for your babies

And this is how they grow

Wind-battered, knocked over

The teeth by the shoulder

Watching the grey sky

That's acting like a good guy

 

The water, the water

Came to realize

It's a dangerous size

The mountain the mountain

Came to recognize

It's steep and rocky sides

Came to recognize

It's steep and rocky sides

More than realized

You think I'd leave your side baby

You know me better than that

You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees

I wouldn't do that

I'll tell you you're right when you want

And if only you could see into me

 

Oh, when you're cold

I'll be there

Hold you tight to me

 

When you're on the outside baby and you can't get in

I will show you you're so much better than you know

When you're lost and you're alone and you can't get back again

I will find you darling and I will bring you home

 

And if you want to cry

I am here to dry your eyes

And in no time

You'll be fine

 

You think I'd leave your side baby

You know me better than that

You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees

I wouldn't do that

I'll tell you you're right when you want

And if only you could see into me

 

Oh when you're cold

I'll be there

Hold you tight to me

Oh when you're low

I'll be there

By your side baby

Another life, another time

Could there be a place for you and I?

Abandon reason, adopt the rhyme

And there could be a place for us to find

There could be a place

 

Oh, I flew home like a springtide swallow

I left the Cape of Good Hope behind

Towards your eyes, so full of paradise

I missed the flight 'cause you were on my mind

Can't get you off my mind

 

You had to know, oh yeah, you had to know

That you're worth more than you ever noticed

That there's less glory in a rising sun

Than in the day that your life begun

But what can we do?

Where can we go from here?

Always so far, always so near

Who cast the spell of our fair weather hell

The sweet hellos, the fair farewells?

 

Well, no one knows where the wind may blow

I've never been a man for another's shadows

But sometimes I drive by the place you live

Just hoping I might catch you in the windows

Well, if you've known love

Then maybe you've known pain

It's here comes the sun and then the bloody rain

And though there's nothing, nothing to forgive

If we could find the grace

There could be a place

There could be a place

 

Another life, another time

Could there be a place for you and I?

Abandon reason, adopt the rhyme

And there could be a place for us to find

There could be a place

Happy Birthday my dearest Ma, hope you dancing with the Angels today, love you and miss you forever and a day ♥♥

 

Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven?

Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong and carry on

‘Cause I know I don't belong

Here in heaven

 

Would you hold my hand if I saw you in heaven?

Would you help me stand if I saw you in heaven?

I'll find my way through night and day

‘Cause I know I just can't stay

Here in heaven

 

Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees

Time can break your heart, have you begging please

Begging please

 

Beyond the door, there's peace, I'm sure

And I know there'll be no more

Tears in heaven

www.youtube.com/watch?v=5anLPw0Efmo

 

Whenever I am sad or happy this song never fails me... <3

 

“My prayers, my tears, my wishes, fears, and lamentations, were witnessed by myself and heaven alone. When we are harassed by sorrows or anxieties, or long oppressed by any powerful feelings which we must keep to ourselves, for which we can obtain and seek no sympathy from any living creature, and which yet we cannot, or will not wholly crush, we often naturally seek relief in poetry—and often find it, too—whether in the effusions of others, which seem to harmonize with our existing case, or in our own attempts to give utterance to those thoughts and feelings in strains less musical, perchance, but more appropriate, and therefore more penetrating and sympathetic, and, for the time, more soothing, or more powerful to rouse and to unburden the oppressed and swollen heart.”

― Anne Brontë, Agnes Grey

 

  

We Are the World

 

There comes a time

When we heed a certain call

When the world must come together as one

There are people dying

Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life

The greatest gift of all

We can't go on

Pretending day-by-day

That someone, somewhere soon make a change

We're all a part of God's great big family

And the truth, you know, love is all we need

We are the world

We are the children

We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving

There's a choice we're making

We're saving our own lives

It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me

Oh, send them your heart

So they know that someone cares

And their lives will be stronger and free

As God has shown us by turning stones to bread

And so we all must lend a helping hand

We are the world

We are the children

We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving

Oh, there's a choice we're making

We're saving our own lives

It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me

When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all

But if you just believe there's no way we can fall

Well, well, well, well let us realize

Oh, that a change can only come

When we stand together as one, yeah..

We are the world

We are the children

We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving

There's a choice we're making

We're saving our own lives

It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me.

I got your fingerprints on my skin

Ever since that day you've let me in

I feel your vibes, they are circlin'

You cut so deep, cut so deep

Who needs love leaning to one side?

We're free fallin' in the jungle lights

You have it all, got me on standby

You cut so deep, cut so deep

 

Cause I thought that the trust had gone

Didn't see this comin' along

You made me a believer

You made me a believer

 

And now I'm

I'm shoutin' from the rooftop, baby

Tell me, will you come and save me?

I'm shoutin' from the rooftop, baby

Come pick me up, come pick me up

Are you just a lover or my twins soul?

Fire the shots and I need to know

I'm shoutin' from the rooftop, baby

Come pick me up, come pick me up

You only see what your eyes want to see

How can life be what you want it to be

You're frozen

When your heart's not open

 

You're so consumed with how much you get

You waste your time with hate and regret

You're broken

When your heart's not open

 

Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart

Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart

Mmmmmm, give yourself to me

Mmmmmm, you hold the key

 

Now there's no point in placing the blame

And you should know I suffer the same

If I lose you

My heart will be broken

 

Love is a bird, she needs to fly

Let all the hurt inside of you die

You're frozen

When your heart's not open

 

You only see what your eyes want to see

How can life be what you want it to be

You're frozen

When your heart's not open

 

If I could melt your heart

Wish you were here

Me, oh, my country man

Wish you were here

I wish you were here

Don't you know the snow is getting colder

And I miss you like hell

And I'm feeling blue

 

Wish you were here

Me, oh, my country man

Wish you were here

I wish you were here

Don't you know the snow is getting colder

And I miss you like hell

And I'm feeling blue

 

I've got feelings for you

Do you still feel the same?

From the first time I laid my eyes on you

I felt joy of living, I saw heaven in your eyes

In your eyes

 

Wish you were here

Me, oh, my country man

Wish you were here

I wish you were here

Don't you know the snow is getting colder

And I miss you like hell

And I'm feeling blue

 

I miss your laugh, I miss your smile

I miss everything about you

Every second's like a minute

Every minute's like a day

When you're far away

 

The snow is getting colder, baby

And I wish you were here

A battlefield of love and fear

And I wish you were here

 

I've got feelings for you

From the first time I laid my eyes on you

 

Wish you were here

Me, oh, my country man

Wish you were here

I wish you were here

Don't you know the snow is getting colder

And I miss you like hell

And I'm feeling blue

 

Wish you were here

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you

Tomorrow I'll miss you

Remember I'll always be true

And then while I'm away

I'll write home everyday

And I'll send all my loving to you

 

I'll pretend that I'm kissing

The lips I am missing

And hope that my dreams will come true

 

And then while I'm away

I'll write home everyday

And I'll send all my loving to you

 

All my loving I will send to you

All my loving, darling, I'll be true

 

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you

Tomorrow I'll miss you

Remember I'll always be true

And then while I'm away

I'll write home everyday

And I'll send all my loving to you

 

All my loving I will send to you

All my loving, darling, I'll be true

All my loving, All my loving

All my loving I will send to you

Did she run away, I don't know

If she ran away

If she ran away, come back home

I got a fear, oh, in my blood

She was carried up into the clouds, high above

If you've bled, I bleed the same

If you're scared, I'm on my way

This was a lovely affair and I was thankful to be invited to share one of my creations among some of the best Flickr artist in Second Life.

Just imagine me, a chunk of coal in the middle of a passel of diamonds. lol

 

We all owe a great deal of gratitude to Morgan Talbot and lin (Malinda Talbot) for working so hard to do this for us.

 

Taken at Black Forest (Winter Country)

I'd like to thank Kimi Blackwood for such a beautiful place and allowing me to take my photograph there. She was so nice. She saw me there that day and asked me if I needed to rezz anything and/or if there was anything else she could do to help with my project. It's a lovely place.

Sittin'on The Dock Of The Bay

 

Otis Redding

Sittin' in the mornin' sun

I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes

Watchin' the ships roll in

Then I watch 'em roll away again

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide, roll away

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia

And I headed for the Frisco Bay

'Cause I've got nothin' to live for

Looks like nothin's gonna come my way, so

I'm just come sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay, wastin' time

Looks like nothin's gonna change

Everything seems to stay the same

I can't do what ten people tell me to do

So I guess I'll remain the same

I'm sittin' here restin' my bones

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

This two thousand miles I roamed

Just to make this dock my home

Now I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay

Watchin' the tide roll away

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

I'm wastin' time

You think you own whatever land you land on

The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim

But I know every rock and tree and creature

Has a life, has a spirit, has a name

 

You think the only people who are people

Are the people who look and think like you

But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger

You'll learn things you never knew you never knew

 

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon

Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?

Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?

Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

 

Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest

Come taste the sunsweet berries of the Earth

Come roll in all the riches all around you

And for once, never wonder what they're worth

The rainstorm and the river are my brothers

 

The heron and the otter are my friends

And we are all connected to each other

In a circle, in a hoop that never ends

 

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon

Or let the eagle tells you where he is been?

Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?

Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

 

How high will the sycamore grow?

If you cut it down, then you'll never know

And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon

 

For whether we are white or copper skinned

We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains

We need to paint with all the colors of the wind

 

You can own the Earth and still

All you'll own is Earth until

You can paint with all the colors of the wind

Pulsing through my veins

And I just can't contain

There she goes

There she goes again

Racing through my brain

And I just can't contain

This feeling that remains...

Take my hand, we can find a place no one knows

And you can tell me where this goes

I know it's hard for you

You've got scars beneath your clothes

You didn't do this on your own

 

As I hold my hand out for you

You're too scared to let me in

And we end where we begin

 

When you gave away the love he gave you

You don't want a soul I save you

I'll never stop, I'm not giving in (no, no, no, no, no)

'Cause I'll climb the walls that slowly cage you

Break the chains that you can't break through

I'll never stop, I'm not giving in

"Free As A Bird"

 

Free as a bird

It's the next best thing to be

Free as a bird

 

Home, home and dry

Like a homing bird I'll fly

As a bird on wings

 

Whatever happened to

The life that we once knew?

Can we really live without each other?

 

Where did we lose the touch

That seemed to mean so much?

It always made me feel so...

 

Free as a bird

Like the next best thing to be

Free as a bird

 

Home, home and dry

Like a homing bird I'll fly

As a bird on wings

 

Whatever happened to

The life that we once knew?

Always made me feel so free

 

Ah...

Ah...

Ah...

 

Free as a bird

It's the next best thing to be

Free as a bird

Free as a bird

Free as a bird

Oooooo

 

Free...

To sevens together

Like time indefinite

Try to catch the glass

Before it falls

Without a frown

Can you turn up the stereo?

I want to play you this old song

It's about love

Can I do that?

 

Did we remember to water the plants today?

I forgot to look up at the moon because

I was too busy

I was too busy looking at you, baby

🎼🎶...::: Boat :::......

 

I came in for the embers

And stayed out for the breeze

I need to feel elements to remind me

There's beauty when it's bleak

Stuck out long before lights down

When do I breathe?

Oh, I know

 

The more that I love, the less that I feel

The times that I jumped never were real

They say that all scars will heal, but I know

Maybe I won't, but the waves won't break my boat

But the waves won't break my boat

 

Stones crashed on the boardwalk

Wind rushed through the trees

I'll keep my eyes peeled

Memories always fall short

With what we could've been

Let the longed for last call

What do I need?

Oh, I know

мy мυѕιc

 

"A fisherman and his son are out on the sea at night. His son falls asleep while his father continues to sail. Soon, though, a soft call from the waves catches his attention. Numb and entranced, he solemnly wanders to the edge of the boat, embracing how the waves take him under.

 

The son, after a few hours, wakes up to see his father gone. He frantically looks over to see if he's fallen, and sees a woman watching him from below. She is more beautiful than Aphrodite herself, and had eyes that soothed even the most frightening of creatures. She smiles, and begins to sing her tune to the child. However, no matter how loud she sang or how melodic her voice was, the boy just stared at her quizzically. Confused, she reaches to the surface, asking him if he can hear her. The boy stares back at her, unsure of what she's saying, and only replies with hand gestures.

 

The mermaid now understands why he doesn't follow her call: he is deaf. Sweetly, she holds her arms out towards him, touching his ears gently. The child felt her fingers almost vibrate, and soon the boy could slowly start hearing a low rumble. Then, the distant sound of the water moving to and fro reached his ears. He smiles, amazed that he can hear for the first time in his life. He gestures a thank you to his mermaid friend, and she simply smiles back.

 

The beauty of the deep begins her call once more, seeing the child become fastened still in place. His eyes glazed over, and began walking closer to his helper. The mermaid continues her lulling tune, and warmly holds the child close, before dragging him to the depths."
