There is only grabbing on and holding tight in the darkness.” ― Lauren Oliver, Holding On It’s autumn now in this year of colored stones Stirring to a brilliant sun, crisp breeze; yet alone Not lost, only blessed, maybe melancholy, you see Happy during moments that silently drift to sea Nothing changes but time from my point of view As I investigate that mirror to see someone new Belief, regard, desires, sentiments, all are clues I was there all along holding on to this love for you Diana Mary Sharpton © copywrite 2020 All Rights Reserved To accompany this poem, I am add a brilliant artist Diana Krall - with a brand new song titled "This Dream Of You"(2).

"This Dream Of You " (originally by Bob Dylan) How long can I stay in this nowhere café Before night turns into day I wonder why I'm so frightened of dawn All I have, all I know Is this dream of you Which keeps me living on There's a moment when all old things become new again But that moment might have come and gone All I have and all I know Is this dream of you Which keeps me living on I look away, but I keep seeing it I don't want to believe, but I keep believing it Shadows dance upon the wall Shadows that seem to know it all Am I too blind to see? Is my heart playing tricks on me? I'm lost in the crowd All my tears are gone All I have and all I know Is this dream of you Which keeps me living on Everything I touch seems to disappear Everywhere I turn you are always here I'll run this race until my earthly death I'll defend this place with my dying breath From a cheerless room in a curtained gloom I saw a star from heaven fall I turned and looked again but it was gone All I have and all I know Is this dream of you Which keeps me living on All I have and all I know Is this dream of you Which keeps me living on Is this dream of you Which keeps me living on I hope you have a blessed morning or evening and thank you for your continued support.

"Together We Stand" by Diana Mary Sharpton Introduction: “My task is set before me, girl My mission clear and true There’ll be black knights and dragons, girl But I will always come for you…” ― Emme Rollins My personal opinion on 2020, we are experiencing world caucus as a result of a pandemic and US election. The Democratic party is trying to put in place a racist shell of a man. It is our belief that his plan is then to step down and give the title over to his VP. This party is fighting tooth and nail with lies and tricks. I encourage everyone to go vote in person. The song being featured this evening is titled "Rescue"(2) which is brilliantly sung by the beautiful Lauren Daigle. She is brand new to me and I love the depth of her vocal range. Lauren is a American contemporary Christian music singer and songwriter and "Rescue" is the 2nd track on her album titled "Look Up Child" released in September 7, 2018.

“To love is nothing. To be loved is something. But to be loved by the person you love.. is everything." ― ~Bill Russell Breath in Life by Diana Mary Sharpton (c) 2020 Climbing that hill one day to the next Adrift, not knowing what to appeal less It’s like time means nothing to you at all Yet, a solemn fee’s trapped in this forestall Where do dreams come from anyway? Are they fears or desires dismissed in the light of day? Or promises weighted down in intervals of delay… And ultimately trivialized in your mind to my dismay. For real this time… the boomer knows No matter what you say to the shadows Heeding without ears in darken halls... Stop erecting all these secret damnable walls… I need you… As the breath in life needs its soul… And miss you… As the dry desert hopes for rain that's icy cold… I love you… Like the taste of a fresh spring breeze… And want you… For it’s you, I want to squeeze and tease…. About the Singers - Teskey Brothers: "The Teskey Brothers are a rare musical gem. Honouring that old school Motown sound and working it into something of their very own, the band have received widespread acclaim for their gorgeous debut album Half Mile Harvest. A raw combination of soul and blues, the record has warmed the hearts of listeners everywhere with it’s melancholic, analogue tones. Written by all four band members, the album was recorded in their own home studio, self-produced and released independently. Listening to the record you’d be forgiven for thinking it was the work of Stax Records alumni in Memphis circa ‘67 rather than a group of twenty-somethings from the Yarra Valley just outside Melbourne. The feeling is as old as the tape machine it was recorded on and it’s a true expression of love. Onstage singer Josh Teskey’s smoked whiskey voice defies expectation as the band around him hold an irresistible groove. Their undeniable live show has wowed audiences around the world, leaving them infected with soul and blues." Paint My Heart The Teskey Brothers Heavy traffic On empty skies Empty streets Fill my eyes I paint my heart With something new Then leave it all I'll leave it all to you If the cold winds coming Don't let it stay I know I'll try Harder every day I paint my heart With something new, then I'll give it all I'll give it all Back to you Yeah In a letter That you sent to me Got my heart For me to see I'll paint it With something new, then I'll send it on I'll send it on Back to you Yeah you Yeah Yeah In a letter A letter you sent to me Got my heart For me to see I'll paint it Yeah, yeah, yeah With something new Then I'll send it on I'll send it on I'll send it on Then I'll send it on I'll send it on Back to you Source: LyricFind Songwriters: Liam Gough / Brendon Love / Joshua Teskey / Samuel Teskey Paint My Heart lyrics © Downtown Music Publishing I need you...

As well as confidence is not going to guarantee your success, but it will give you the opportunity to achieve it.” ― Eyden I. The world is in a conundrum. Individuals are being asked to live "at a distance" from each other due of the #Coronavirus and for me it has been very frightening and sad. Compounding this emotion is the fact people are dropping like flies at a sugar bowl full of sweet poison. Thank God no one that I love or know has been affected. People are either playing according to the rules or not at all. The latter being truly selfish and disrespectful. It is surreal. This being said, my second favorite thing is listening to music and sugar, this along with my first favorite thing is what we will do to pass all this time on hand.... smiling :) Let's listen to Al Green to talk about the pain. He knows how to sing about it! How Can You Mend a Broken Heart? Al Green I can think of younger days when living for my life Was everything a man could want to do I could never see tomorrow, but I was never told about the sorrow And how can you mend a broken heart? How can you stop the rain from falling down? How can you stop the sun from shining? What makes the world go round? How can you mend a this broken man? How can a loser ever win? Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees And misty memories of days gone by We could never see tomorrow, no one said a word about the sorrow And how can you mend a broken heart?

It's cold and gloomy.” ― Mouloud Benzadi The song that I am going to feature this evening is titled “Without You" (2) and sung by the brilliant young duet, Birds of a Feather (Amy McKay & Ryan Leon). Both singer-songwriters, their music is consider Folk, Pop. The video was published on March 1, 2020 and uploading on YouTube by DEUTSCHLAND. "Without You" is the 9th track on their brand new albumn titled "You Are Music" released on August 28, 2019. I love this groups' music and this song is no exception. Remember LOVE Traverses it all!...I highly recommend a few moments of your time to to check out their albumn and this video... A little about the artists and the lyrics are listed below for your reading pleasure... A little about the Artists: BIRDS OF A FEATHER Amy & Ryan "Amy McKay (vocal, guitar, piano, bluesharp) and Ryan Leon (vocal, guitar, banjo) are artists with a long track record respectively. They have been performing on both big and small stages in various places and countries before having met during their previous project, TinkaBelle. The band was signed to Warner Music Central Europe, and both their studio albums were awarded with gold status. The group joined soul singer Seal for a duet, opened up in sold-out stadiums for rock legends Status Quo and went on tour with The Overtones in Germany. By the end of 2013, it became clear to Amy and Ryan that the time was ripe for musical development and personal change. The decision for a new beginning had been made. Birds of a Feather were allowed to mature slowly. Their first two EPs “Light Up” (2016) and “Rise Up” (2017) were recorded in Dublin with the support of producer Ger McDonnell (U2). They took them on the road and performed shows all over Germany, The Netherlands, Italy, Denmark, and Austria. In spring 2018, in cooperation with DB, they gave concerts in all major train stations in Baden-Württemberg. In December 2018, they launched a successful crowdfunding campaign to finance their band bus. At the end of August 2019, Amy and Ryan will release their first full studio album “You Are Music”. They repeated the inspiring collaboration with Ger McDonnell, and this time they also worked with three amazing Irish musicians: John Colbert (Bass), Esa Taponen (Gitarren) und Daragh O’Toole (Keyboard) Camera by: https://www.robinegli.ch Cast: Alessandra Votta & Patrick Müller-Klug" I have added their social media connections in case you are interested to connecting.

 "Blair Stuart" by Blair Stuart Photography Introduction: “I personally believe mavericks are people who write their own rulebook. They are the ones who act first and talk later. They are fiercely independent thinkers who know how to fight the lizard brain (to use Seth Godin’s term). I don’t believe many are born, rather they are products of an environment, or their experiences. They are usually the people that find the accepted norm does not meet their requirements and have the self-confidence, appetite, independence, degree of self reliance and sufficient desire to carve out their own niche in life. I believe a maverick thinker can take a new idea, champion it, and push it beyond the ability of a normal person to do so. I also believe the best mavericks can build a team, can motivate with their vision, their passion, and can pull together others to accomplish great things. A wise maverick knows that they need others to give full form to their views and can gather these necessary contributors around them. Mavericks, in my experience, fall into various categories – a/ the totally off-the-wall, uncontrollable genius who won’t listen to anyone; b/ the person who thinks that they have the ONLY solution to a challenge but prepared to consider others’ views on how to conquer the world &, finally, the person who thinks laterally to overcome problems considered to be irresolvable. I like in particular the third category. The upside is that mavericks, because of their different outlook on life, often sees opportunities and solutions that others cannot. But the downside is that often, because in life there is always some degree of luck in success (i.e. being in the right place at the right time), mavericks that fail are often ridiculed for their unorthodox approach. However when they succeed they are acclaimed for their inspiration. It is indeed a fine line they walk in life.” ― Ziad K. Abdelnour, Economic Warfare: Secrets of Wealth Creation in the Age of Welfare Politics A Maverick As water flows into time; humanity propels an infinite truest. He’s not lost; just complicated, an enigma, between custom and thirst. The wind’s his mistress; transfixing existing depths hurled to a pause, In pursuit; of beauty with a lens, resolute however never resolved. He is a man that walks a path bequeathed in honor and dignity, A truth akin to surges from an ocean controlled by the anger in wind, Centered in his frame; carrying it bearing no disrepute, Yet there’s that wrinkle, a wanton speck in tenderness, moot. Alike a smoothed bolder splitting the natural flow in a stream, Or a lengthy journey commenced awaiting its symmetry. Not the complete man, a tersely fragment lodged in his soul, And at times between blinks it leaves him bare and cold. Shaking his head to mend the painful silliness that seems to append, And focus on the grace of life in the now, irrespective to the journey’s end. Distinctive yet rebellious, perceptions tend to send, For his allure’s an unorthodox merit of being a maverick among men. I wrote this poem several years ago based on my impression of Blair Stuart. I hit the nail on the head, so to speak.... :) I have changed the music up to Bruce Springsteen - Drive All Night which in my opinion fits this post and Blair's personality the best... Take a listen... remember people will show you how they feel. Need your loving Sugar... "A Basket of Roses" #Photography #DianaMarySharpton w/ #VanMorrison "Up on Broadway" #MissU12/23/2019  Introduction: “I have come to accept the feeling of not knowing where I am going. And I have trained myself to love it. Because it is only when we are suspended in mid-air with no landing in sight, that we force our wings to unravel and alas begin our flight. And as we fly, we still may not know where we are going to. But the miracle is in the unfolding of the wings. You may not know where you're going, but you know that so long as you spread your wings, the winds will carry you.” ― C. JoyBell C.

Lovers are patient and know that the moon needs time to become full.” ― Rumi "Be Patient With My Love" Mighta done it this time Mighta drank too much wine Mighta said somethin' that I just can't take back Always push till you cry And I just don't know why Tell me there's a way to turn around On this way to goodbye 'Cause I'm comin' back Back to my senses I'm comin' back Like holy redemption I'm comin' back to the man that I was So, please don't give up Be patient with my love No, I never fight fair But I'm tryin', I swear Old habits don't break I heard someone say (Heard someone say) Ooh, yeah, I could use some Jesus A little more prayer But if I could make it to the middle Could you meet me there? 'Cause I'm comin' back Back to my senses I'm comin' back Like holy redemption I'm comin' back to the man that I was So, please don't give up Oh, be patient with my love (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh) Ooh yeah Be patient with my love (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh) Ooh I'm comin' back Back to my senses I'm comin' back Like holy redemption I'm comin' back to the man that I was So, please don't give up Don't give up Just be patient with my love Ooh yeah 'Cause I'm comin' back to love (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh) I'm comin' back to love Oh, I'm comin' back to who I was (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh) So, just be patient with my love Oh-oh-oh (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh) Be patient with my love (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh) Oh, I'm comin' back to love (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh) (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh) References: https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/ladyantebellum/bepatientwithmylove.html Kisses and Hugs My Darling...

Diana Mary Sharpton“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.” Categories
