Stephen's Painting Studio Thoughts About The Old Year And New by Stephen Craig Rowe

     Liberty never sleeps for when she is not in the stars she is about in the heart and minds of those who dream, those who believe, those who wonder and wander and all those others.  Liberty and Dragon dance eternal, entwined forever in the reflection of glass beads and tears.  In mid winter the magic of Christmas combines with the power of winds, rains, snows, "only God knows", and such that the Snow Queen bestows upon the lands.  There Liberty wakes the Dragon for a dance again on New Year's Eve.
     One can not help but recall the year past, with all the good and ill experiences.  Then shed a small tear for the ill memories and smile for the good ones with hope that the New Year shall bring more good than ill to those near and dear, to those who dream, those who believe, those who wander and wonder, and all those others.
     On New Year's Eve Liberty and Dragon will be dancing a wing flapping, tail slapping galactic tango that touches the all in the magic of who we are and the realization of the miracle that we are here and able to count our blessings.
     The celebration is ever one of hope for a better year to come and an appreciation of the year past. 
     I wish you and yours, a very meaningful, safe, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
     As ever be well,  Stephen Craig Rowe

Hope so important for a person, a guide to follow, to grasp and stretch.

Have a Happy and prosperous New Year.

May the steps of the New Year dance be easy to trod.

I was afraid that Liberty and Dragon would never dance again.. they would sleep in the fog of dreams, mingled among glass beads and tears..
and as with all dreams each one takes on their own meaning..I see them against the shadow of the moon.. closing my eyes.. as one tear drops upon the frozen earth.. waiting for the spring child to touch..bringing warmth once again to a barren and frozen excistenc..and as only in dreams.. Liberty and Dragon dance the dance that was never meant to be..
"smile"
much love to you this new year..
Dear Stephen, I won't be online much anymore.. if at all.. do take care of yourself.. soft hugs..
Hope

Stephen, I pray each day for all of our servicemen and women. I pray that God will keep your son in His care and that you and I both will live long enough to see the end of this war.

Não sou poeta, mas gosto de poesia, especialmente a poesia sensual. Gosto da poesia onde as palavras são sentimentos. Como não sou poeta, me considero divulgadora. Mostro a quem me visita, os poetas maravilhosos que encontro pelo meu caminho...

Feliz Ano Novo e aparece no meu cantinho!!!!

Greetings to you Stephen. That was wonderfully written as usual. I have missed your writings and creativity.
Here's hoping that you may consider Wordpress as a second home as well. Either way, you can bet that I will be checking up on you here.
