one golden leaf



in a beautiful garden 
filled with colour and light
there is a dark spot in the water
 beneath the surface

waking now on a wet morning
my half shut eye craving light
I stand at the edge of that pool and 
sink into the mystery of its one golden leaf

starving the bad wolf to feed the soul



is there a goal here? well maybe one.....

no plan, no name, no readers
this shadow at the door.
a bad wolf who comes up with a lot of reasons for me to stay hidden and quiet....

remembering the best way to outwit the bad wolf
 by always slithering sideways
rewarding the soul with open space and the giddy expectation of
NO RULES.

a sketch book, a blank page.
a portal to explore and experiment, a jotter full of notes to self,
sketches, outlines. 

no commenting required, keeping counsel.......
just putting stuff out there and letting it hang in the wind.

why? because creativity needs to blossom and as yet, too tender to plant out,
a little more hot housing is in order.
 this shield of glass is keeping the wind from getting in at the sides,
it's thin and transparent but it's solid.

if you just found your way here, please feel welcome.
maybe you are on a similar jaunt?
maybe our paths will cross over time?
maybe you have something to teach me?
meanwhile I am trusting this and yielding to impulse.....
