Big Strong Man

There was a picture in my head, a fantasy I thought of this big strong man
Sweet but tough, someone who would understand
Who would open his arms and take me in
Biggest hug ever, not like other men
I said to God, please sometimes enough is enough
I need a respite from all that has been so rough
You have sent me feathers and friends and angels and more
Could I ask one more thing...someone I adore?
Someone who gets me and who is ready for this
A man who is kind and good who can share my deep down bliss
And then he was there. Picked almost as a mistake, a swipe to the right
We talked of life and pain and I saw his great might
I listened and everyone said I should be all okay alone
But I knew deep down I knew I wanted to have my mind completely blown
He stands so tall, big feet as a base
He holds out his arms and then touches my face
A little prayer from me, thank you God
He likes my silly jokes and does not mind that I am flawed
My heart shaped space has been waiting to be filled 
And with this man that believes in heaven, I am more than thrilled
Early days I know but hopes so high
I look forward to the future with a very content sigh
A calmness, a peace settling all over me

Of what love and fun lie ahead I cannot wait to see

The First Switch, hand to cheek

The Size of Switzerland Compared to the US Three Swiss Kisses....  Let me explain the name of my blog. In 2014 after living in the Atlanta, GA area almost my whole life, I moved to a beautiful tiny little country (the picture shows teenie, tiny Switzerland as it compares to the huge US) that I knew very little about with my husband and three children. It was such a stunning country, even from the plane. The sunflower faces beckoned, swaying slightly in the wind between the mountains and the most beautiful almost ocean sized lake I have ever seen. It was a whole new life, just beginning. Half of my life has been lived at this point and it was both scary and lovely to start over in a whole new world. We will come back to that start over part, little did I even suspect.There were so many things that struck me in this breathtaking place. I could write pages and pages (and may well do so) about the contrast between the giant United States and little tiny Switzerland. The Sw...

What I didn't tell you

What I didn’t tell you is the friend I saw today is dying His family has abandoned him and I am his only friend He denies his pain to look strong until it hurts so much he lashes out at me He wants to die, he wants to live, he does not know which world to put his feet in I feel his pain, I think of myself, what if I was all alone and dying, wouldn’t I want a me? My other friends all four years new, tell me it is too much, step away, I need to be there for my kids What I didn’t tell you is that while I watch my friend, his legs sticking out from the gown, whittled like wood more and more each day, I am tortured by the man I loved I am watching nature destroy my friend while I am trying my best not to be destroyed by an unnatural human force, the father of my children What I didn’t tell you is that my children are no longer with me daily, their plans are made without me, I am not even considered as an afterthought, just sometimes a taxi ride I was successful a...

Peace of Now

I believe in rainbows, I have seen them and been in awe of them. Did God make them as a promise? I don’t want to think about them in that context and the world being destroyed.. I won’t. I want to admire the beauty and the science behind them, but still the magic I do believe in Angels and the feathers they leave and the direction and peace they can give They have kissed my skin with love and care, leaving marks as a remembrance Visual daily reminders of those who love me in heaven and those who love me here We have power within us, a great power that some have learned to use for good, others for evil, so selfish and so confused Mine is back and I will share again. And those of you that need to take pieces, please do And those of you who wish to destroy it, you simply will not, you will not strip it from me again. I am meant for a greater purpose and I need the power to to achieve that purpose There is a snowglobe that contains it, but it is not pure glass, it is...
