a moment in pink!!!






"401

this summer she wears her pink kimono
and she will walk under the pink blossoms of the pink sakura
she will carry a pink umbrella
and she will cross the pink bridge of kokoma

pink leaves on her feet
pink fingernails on her pink wooden shoes

in honor of her love
that never bloomed to complete red
she will sit on a pink bench
praying for pink clouds to drift
on the pink skies.

RIC S. BASTASA"

today...skipping lightly through the meadow, she blossomed, eagerly, fervently, to walk under the stars,


Happy Pink Saturday!!! loveliest wishes

of woven thoughts,


stored on a light table{which doubles as a wardrobe :) }

the songs of the seashore







to decipher a vernacular most exciting, waves as they tumble, sand as it gleams, salt in the air & tiny shells, in all their unusual shapes, how have they formed & become so beautiful? such a delicious melody, like that of floral oppulence!

to sail to the stars






this post is dedicated to a brave young girl who is sailing around the world, harnessing the wind & treading stars. her courage afloat & natures discoveries in her pink sails, every day she comes closer to the dream of being the youngest to sail solo around the world.

...every two weeks or so since Jessica Watson set sail, my Mum would ask, has anyone heard if she's alright? & finally a couple of weeks ago, Mum thought we should google it just to check, because we hadnt heard for awhile.
& now we are so happily following along these wonderfully inspirational vignettes of her narrative...oh we do wish her very splendid luck in her journey so beautifully becoming achieved!!!{& special thoughts to her from my little sister who is painting her a sunset!!} special & precious thoughts today
