under magnolia branches i ponder.. .

being inspired by Miss Maddie's gorgeous journal entry, {& the question which leaves me mesmerized in so many ways - being convinced that i share less than two percent in words, &communicate much more of how i feel or what i see through colour & form on my blog, which can usually tell something much more eloquently than my run on sentences} i'll share with you a little of my journal, today.. .

i am sitting in the dining room tapping away. up the hall, my brother & sister are playing a duet they wrote on the piano, of such haunting beauty, & i am absorbed in this captivating moment, immersed in a blanket of song;

each note a reverberating pendullum, swinging me up & down,

lulling, compelling me towards hope & a rolling, roaring beauty that demands to be entreated,

a clap of artistic thunder that saturates the heart with a buffet of symmetry

(the kind of perfect harmony when the mind & heart meet in mirrored anticipation of what can & will be achieved,

the impeccable loveliness of our divine nature, & all we can BE)

this percussive vibe of absolute satisfaction in knowing what is good

& having the courage to succeed in it{forsaking littleness of soul to stand in defence of honour, charity & virtue, qualities all too often forgotten} 

a proverbial encouragement of spiritual refinement,

a penchant for the verity of life {or a fondness for the truth of our situation & where we stand eternally, & how we can obtain a brighter hope!} 

this is what they teach me!!!

{& how i love them for it!!!} 

Happy Easter everyone!!!
