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.

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.

Back Down South Kings Of Leon Come on out and dance, If you get the chance, We're gonna spit on the rival. All's I wanna know, Is how far you wanna go, Fighting for survival.

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? 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 this broken man? How can a loser ever win? Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again Source: LyricFind Songwriters: Barry Gibb / Robin Gibb How Can You Mend a Broken Heart? - Notting Hill lyrics © Warner Chappell Music, Inc, Universal Music Publishing Group Missing you...Sugar show-up ![]() Introduction: “A day without you beside me is like a day without warm sunshine. 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.

Let me say "I hope your day is brilliant"... and that you are missed. ![]() Introduction: “I have not always chosen the safest path. I've made my mistakes, plenty of them. I sometimes jump too soon and fail to appreciate the consequences. But I've learned something important along the way: I've learned to heed the call of my heart. I've learned that the safest path is not always the best path and I've learned that the voice of fear is not always to be trusted.” ― Steve Goodier Well it has been a very difficult four months, fiscal year-end, new staff and the beginning of an Audit. Then suddenly, there was a leadership change details of which really do not matter. The thing that is important is that I turned in my resignation yesterday and my last day is on 11/22/2019. Lets say when one wakes and looks for excuses to not go to work there is a problem and this time I addressed it head on. I am proud of myself... that's right! I am okay and did the right thing for me. I am looking for my path again... eyes wide open, with clear vision and heart in hand. I will continue! Richard Clayderman is a brilliant pianist... here is my music for today, enjoy! It is an instrumental; however the words below describe my emotion. Richard Clayderman - Ballade Pour Adeline When you walk through a storm, Hold your head up high, And don't be afraid of the dark. At the end of a storm, There's a golden sky, And a sweet silver song of a lark. Walk on through the wind, Walk on through the rain, Though your dreams be tossed and blown... Walk On! Walk On! With hope in your heart, And you'll never walk alone... You'll never walk alone Walk On! Walk On! With hope in your heart, And you'll never walk alone... You'll never walk alone Love you my sweetheart... and thinking about you... only you ![]() Introduction: “Come to me. Why must you ruin this moment? You are burdened with thought. Burdened with the past and expectations of the future. You are burdened with your self. Cast these aside by laughing at yourself. And love, for what more is there than to love me? Take me now and let it be heaven for us.” ― Kamand Kojouri It has been a long time since I wrote anything; however I have thought a lot about life, choices, behavior, responses, regrets, hopes, yesterday and tomorrow. Living in the now is important... I wake up and thank the lord for the new day... and live my day. I have always felt it was safer to think and act this way. If I die well I didn't agonize over the fact of death. The finality of it all. This probably tells you lot about me. Everyday, I start a new page, it may be the same as yesterday's or even tomorrows; however my plans are typically short term if I am to act on them. Yes there are those dreams and hopes but to buy the new car or tires for the old one happens this weeks, not in three months. I have a budgets that helps me plan ahead... but then I am living right now... Risk taker? Big yes and small no. It is a difficult yet easy decision and is strictly based on how much I am loved and the potential for a logical or even positive outcome.... This month, this week today, this afternoon... if not then I will address it tomorrow....This behavior is really about believing in my tomorrow in the hopes that if I get there it will go my way or at least I have a sure footing with people, time, events that I have invested in. Complicate? Hell yes! I have always been at the crossroads of my life... Why? because I am also scare about tomorrow and the choices I make that will affect me emotionally... If I die... well I am dead... who cares... It's the pain in disappointment, loss, love, loneliness that might crush me... So it's hard for me to crossover the road.... To make that decision... The right decision... People who know me, understand this about me and are patiently helping me cross this road.... to the other side. Don't push! I am stubborn... "smile" Here is a song that speaks to this universe. Love Me Anyway P!nk Even if you see my scars Even if I break your heart If we're a million miles apart Do you think you'd walk away? If I get lost in all the noise Even if I lose my voice Flirt with all the other boys What would you say? Could you? Could you? Could you love me anyway? Is it for better or for worse Or am I just your good time girl? Can you still hold me when it hurts Or would you walk away? Even if I scandalize you Cut you down and criticize you Tell a million lies about you What would you say? Could you? Could you? Could you? Could you love me anyway? Could you? (Aw, could you?)

We are made of star stuff.” ― Carl Sagan To Only You I can’t explain it! It’s like running furiously lost time Trying to find that moment that’s passing me by It’s a quiet sadness, only I know to feel As I laugh in days to nights the skin, I peel How can love evoke behavior like this? From agony to seconds knotted in fanciful bliss An energy laden in the flames of unfettered appeal Which is the true secret this soul must reveal To only you, my love is primal, tender and benign Saith I to you seeking moments shared at your side.

I love you Sugar be my spring... Introduction: “You’ll learn, as you get older, that rules are made to be broken. Be bold enough to live life on your terms, and never, ever apologize for it. Go against the grain, refuse to conform, take the road less traveled instead of the well-beaten path. Laugh in the face of adversity, and leap before you look. Dance as though EVERYBODY is watching. March to the beat of your own drummer. And stubbornly refuse to fit in.” ― Mandy Hale Can't seem to get this song out of my head, I heard it on the way home last Friday. I plan on retiring soon... or let's say not soon enough. Waiting for my paperwork to show-up. We all go through times that are hard, easy and happy. God bless me to make it to that happy point... even though it may be hard. The below poem is an internal struggle, I went through a few years ago. The good news is that this battle has become less and less each day. Isn't that something! I recently moved to a small one bedroom and my children stayed in my old apartment. The complex did us a solid and painted both units and laid new carpet. I just love both apartments. The amazing things is that the battle my son and I were in has vanished. He loves me now! I am blessed... yes indeed. I love the color of cobalt blue; however I am going to add to this list candy apple red, jet black, soft grey and canary yellow with the brilliance of them all dancing in my new apartment for me to enjoy every minute of the day. Yes, I can now walk around in my skin, wash clothes when I want, make noise, food lasts a week, no dishes in the sink and there are quiet moments when needed... This move has been an amazing lift to my outlook and mood. Don't get me wrong, I love my kids and miss them, but they needed for me to move out...lol! Flock of Loons by Diana Mary Sharpton Churning thoughts drift as insignificant balloons, Springing upward into flight, As a flock of sultry loons Suddenly! Ear-piercing, there’s a CLASH, Breaking tranquility, A complete sound botch, As birds airlift from the distant loch Reminiscence, it’s all so pristine, As a fresh dewy morning, Crisp, green and serene Yes, I crossed the traverse today, And faced a demon or two, along my way, There’s no hiding from time, It slams the soul in discomfort, Slowly crawling up between nerve and spine One thing doesn’t change, It’s life’s impression, Washing down my face, Dictating pace, And clocking my next sensation or taste I looked in the mirror, today Bewildered, I would say Instead of me, I saw you Wondering who it was looking so cool I knew you but you looked through me, Seeing nothing relevant, Just a vastness, encompassing the deep blue sea, The difference felt little frightening too! An awkwardness, see, Because, I had found consolation without your soul in me What would I do? To merge the two! NOW and THEN, Split apart by sadness, loss, denial, revenge and sin, It’s just NOW, so I opened the reflection and let you in, Touched by this commotion, You reconciled to NOW and I to THEN © Copyright by Diana Mary Sharpton 2013-2019 "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" (from "Pat Garrett & Billy The Kid" soundtrack) Mama, take this badge off of me I can't use it anymore It's gettin' dark, too dark to see I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door Mama, put my guns in the ground I can't shoot them anymore That long black cloud is comin' down I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door References: Lyrics https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/bobdylan/knockinonheavensdoor.html Sugar you have touched my soul, my heart and my mind...

![]() Introduction: "Not from the whole wide world I choose thee, Sweetheart, light of the land and the sea! The wide, wide world could not enclose thee, For thou art the whole wide world to me." - R. W. Gilder Talk To Me by Suzanne Hayasaki Sit with me in the shade of this tree. Tell me who you were, who you are, And who it is you wish to be. Talk to me of days gone by and days to come. Talk to me of warm mornings, cool evenings, And cold nights, writing by candlelight. Tell me of the epic that will not come. Tell me of the love poems that continue to flow, Unread, unpublished, unappreciated, Unseen by the eyes that inspire them. Tell me of your ambitions, your wishes, Your vision of what you could be If someone would take the time to read The words you put to paper so passionately. Recite and I will listen. Hypnotize me with your rhymes. Lull me with the rhythms of your speech. Create a complete world with your words And let your voice lead us both Where you want us to go. The epic is an oral tradition. Poetry is meant to be heard not read. Don’t look for your story in the structure. Don’t expect to work magic if you are counting feet. Just be. Just speak. Just believe That within you is beauty And release it. "Wide River To Cross" There's a sound in the wind, blowing down the road I've been I can hear it cry while shadows steal the Sun But I can not look back now, come too far to turn around And there's still a race ahead, I must run I'm only half way home I got a journey on, Where I'll find the things I have lost I've come a long, long road Still I've got miles to go I've got a wide, wide river to cross I have stumbled, I have strayed You can trace the tracks I've made All across the memories, why aren't we gone But I'm just a refugee, won't you sing a prayer for me Cause sometimes even the strongest soldiers falls I'm only half way home I got a journey on, Where I'll find the things I have lost I've come a long, long road Still I've got miles to go I've got a wide, wide river to cross I've got a wide, wide river to cross I've got a wide, wide river to cross References: Lyrics: https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/dianakrall/widerivertocross.html Video: Diana Krall - Published on Sep 11, 2012 Personal Note: To the man I love, I want you morning, noon and night. I think of you always, every minute of the day. What are you doing today? How did you feel? Did you laugh and think about me? Did you take long steps or sit down? Did you get angry and shrugged it off? Dance with this gal my darling. The journey is not over yet. It's you that bring the sun to my rainy days and without you I am lost. Consistency spells affection. Affection is the response to my emotion, I have for you. You are the love of my life. Diana ![]() Introduction: “I knew the second I met you that there was something about you I needed. Turns out it wasn’t something about you at all. It was just you.” ––by Jamie McGuire This post is mainly for entertainment value...lol! I am feeling a little "Soulish". Check out the words before you make judgement. Pretty much we all go through these types of emotions; however at the end of the day, one stays if there is real love. There's Something On Your Mind B.B. King There's something on your mind By the way you look at me There is something on your mind, baby By the way you look at me And what you're thinking brings happiness Oh, and it bring misery Please, please, don't try to tell me I think, I, I understand No, no, don't try to tell me, baby 'Cause I think, I, I understand You want me to try and forget you Well, I'll do, baby, I'll do the best I can You know it hurts you when you're in love with someone And you know that someone don't love you It carries a heavy burden on your heart to know That the someone that you're in love with Is in love with your best friend And I'll tell you, when someone else is rocking you Rocking your cradle, you know, better Than you can rock your cradle yourself Then there's only one thing for you to do You just pack your clothes turn around And slowly walk out of the door Look over your left shoulder as you go out Then you hang your head and you say Oh please don't try to tell me Uh huh, I think, I understand No, no, no, no please don't try to tell me Because you think, you think I understand Oh you want me to try, to try to forget you, baby And I'll tell you, I'll do the best I can You know after you have done all you could do And you can't take no more, then you go downtown You get your big baseball bat And you come back on the scene Where they both are still together And then you just go and kick down the door Now as you kick down the door you just start Beating the hell of everybody that you can see Everybody that comes through the door And just as you make up your mind that you're gonna try To forgive her, then out comes another one of your friends And that really blows your mind so you go and think about You say to yourself, baby I realize I've done wrong But please forgive me and with a smirky smile on her face Then she look up at you and she say If you ever think about me (Oh I think about you, baby) If you ever change your mind (Oh you're staying on my mind, baby) If you ever think about me (Oh I think, I think about you all the time) And if I ever cross your mind (You stay on my mind) Well, you know, you know You know I'm yours And I know, I know you got to be mine (Yeah) There's something on your mind, be I can tell by the way you look at me (Oh, there's something, on my mind, baby) There is something on your mind (Oh can you tell, there's something on my mind) By the way you look at me (Oh the way I look at you, you look good to me) And what you're thinking brings happiness (Yes, baby) Oh and it can bring misery (Yes, all right) Songwriters: Big Jay McNeely There's Something On Your Mind lyrics © BMG Rights Management You know I am yours Sugar... lovin' the thought of you; however because of my unemployment situation, I am feeling that line beating the "Hell" out of someone other than you...lol! |

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
