The Last Dance
There’s a last time for everything,
remember that,
the last kiss,
the last dance,
the last word,
the last breath...
Dr. Sue’s Quotes
THE ALTERNATE ROUTES - NOTHING LOST
Nothing Lost
The Alternate Routes
It's easy to say, but harder to believe
Let your worries fall away, like the autumn to the leaves
We are right on time, right where we're supposed to be
So put your little hand in mine, see what there is to see
You've got me, and I've got you
Nothing ever rang so true
Nothing Lost is ours to lose
You've got me, and I've got you
I look for you everywhere, stars at night the birds in the air
Crashing waves like a silent prayer, you are always there
You've got me, I've got you
Nothing ever rang so true
Nothing Lost is ours to lose
You've got me, and I've got you
My heart lives where you are
My heart lives where you are
My heart lives where you are
My heart lives where you are
You've got me, I've got you
Nothing ever rang so true
Nothing Lost is ours to lose
You've got me, and I've got you
I've got you
🎶 JACOB GUREVITSCH - SECRET SORROWS
Under the wisteria tree
In the pink moonlight
Her sorrows
The saddest shades of purple
Bright Lights
Haevn
Your words are high and running through a tired mind
A howling wind surrounds you
I'm trying to illuminate a clouded heart
I'm gonna find the strength to stay
Feel we're gonna break out
At the last step now
Feel we're gonna break out
I really wanna see your face, and I see
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me home
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me home
Your hands are high and floating through a darkened sky
So many eyes around you
The distant sounds as neon sparks light up my heart
I'm gonna find a brighter day
Feel we're gonna break out
I really wanna see your face, and I see
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me home
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me home
You shut your heart and shut my door
You shut your heart
When I say hold me, when I say hold me, when I see
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me home
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me
Bright bright lights, bright lights to guide me home
Bright lights to guide
Bright lights to guide
Bright lights to guide
Bright lights to guide me home
She
Elvis Costello
She
May be the face I can't forget
A trace of pleasure or regret
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
She may be the song that summer sings
May be the chill that autumn brings
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day
She
May be the beauty or the beast
May be the famine or the feast
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell
She may be the mirror of my dreams
A smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside her shell
She who always seems so happy in a crowd
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud
No one's allowed to see them when they cry
She may be the love that cannot hope to last
May come to me from shadows of the past
That I remember till the day I die
She
May be the reason I survive
The why and wherefore I'm alive
The one I'll care for through the rough and rainy years
Me I'll take her laughter and her tears
And make them all my souvenirs
For where she goes I've got to be
The meaning of my life is
She, she, she
🎶 JESSE COOK & JILL BARBER - PETITE FLEUR
Little Flower
I have hidden
Better than anywhere else
In the garden of my heart
A little flower
This flower
Prettier than a bouquet
It secretly keeps
All my childish dreams
And the love of my parents
And all these clear mornings
Made of happy distant memories
When life
At times betrays me
You remain my happiness
Little flower
If I could
Recall my twenties for a moment
To breath
This perfume that I loved so much
In my heart
You will always bloom
In the grand garden of love
Little flower
Take this gift
That I always kept
Even when I was twenty
I have never given it away
Don't be afraid
Plucked from the bottom of one's heart
A little flower
Never dies
Hot summer streets and the pavements are burning
I sit around
Trying to smile but the air is so heavy and dry
Strange voices are sayin' (what did they say?)
Things I can't understand
It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of hand
It's a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Leavin' me here on my own
It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer
Now you're gone
The city is crowded, my friends are away
And I'm on my own
It's too hot to handle, so I got to get up and go
🎶 KATIE MELUA - I WILL BE THERE
She is like the lady down the road
Or just the woman up the street
Like any mother you may know
To me, she is the one who had it planned
To lead us all to Wonderland
She always wanted us to go
And she said
"Don't ever be lonely
Remember, I'll always care
Wherever you may be
Remember I will be there"
And like another lady that we know
She has a smile so bright and sweet
And hair as white as driven snow
Though life is never easy day to day
She has a very special way
To make us smile when we are low
And she says
"Don't ever be lonely
Remember, I'll always care
Wherever you may be
Remember I will be there
Don't ever be lonely
Remember, I will be there
I will be there
I will be there
Get it on, get it on in the summer sun
When the love is around everybody’s feeling
Get it on, get it on in the summer sun
When the love is around it’s a wonderful feeling
From a gorgeous photo of Aimee 🌹 🌹 🌹 Beautiful Mess
And the lovely poem from The Poetic Vagabond Neale Horrocks
Nature dances in her dress
She dances through the beautiful mess
That does cover the forest floor
As wildness dances through the door
She does wear a colourful dress
Gliding through the beautiful mess
Where she thrills all watching eyes
As she dances under the skies
Wearing a very colourful dress
Nature dances, through a beautiful mess
Thank you Aimee 🌹 🌹 🌹 and Neale.
I changed the title after Neale’s poem

🎶 Jacob Gurevitsch Mapa de Soledad
I don’t mind being all by myself at all, not talking to anyone for a whole day, but just for one or two days is fine ^_^
Back to real world tomorrow with a long shift.
Enjoy your solitude my Flickr friends ❤️

Hold on Hold on Hold on
I will take it away before you stumble
I will stay by your side until you survive
Following along with an exercise to help you learn to 'play' rather than work when creating art. www.karenabend.com/sketchbook-revival/iecoss/
Graphite. Finished of playing with a touch of pastel which should have been left out. If a person can't play in a sketchbook, where else can they?
I didn't have as long as I would have liked. With the place to myself, it was a pleasure listening the the fish slap water as they jumped and landed and the birds' songs, but I remembered I had left most of the doors open wide on the house. It shouldn't had been a problem, but you never know...
There's a very short video to go with this>>>
