LIFE THE ULTIMATE JOURNEY... TAW's JOURNEY CHALLENGE...


Life the ultimate journey 
 It begins when it wants 
 ends when it’s through 
 starts wherever it is, 
 rambles on taking twists and turns 
 no one would ever expect. 
Through darkness and day 
love, Joy, anger, fear and despair, 
sometimes too fast 
 at times painfully slow. 
When you’re young 
 you foolishly think you’re in control 
 It laughs at your plans. 
When you are old you marvel 
 where it has taken you
 things you have seen 
and lived to tell. 
But most of all 
 you remember the journey.

This is a wonderful response to the challenge, Deann! The art is so beautiful and full of hope, and the words are simply stunning. If you don't mind, I will copy it and keep it in one of my journals. It's definitely a keeper. You are so talented, my friend. I wish you lived next door so we could sit down and have a cuppa together!!

Oh, another initiatory journey (like Lori), with zigzag and the sun at the end...
Powerfully full of hope in imagery, words and beauty.
This one is a winner my dear friend!

Deann, your writing is wonderful and these words are so beautiful. Would you mind if I use it at some time (and give you credit, of course?) I'll even send you a copy of what I use it for...no thoughts now, but it's so GOOOD!!! xo

What a glorious painting, Deann, and your poetry is powerful indeed. You speak through both to the adventurer in all of us. Thank you.
