Manifesto for 2011

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ I love the Desiderata.
This is my version hanging in my hallway.
The light in the left top corner is from my mini chandelier.
The following 2011 Manifesto was inspired by the Desiderata.

Only a night from old to new!
Let this be our manifesto!
~

Comb out the tangled hours of days
Gently
Methodically
Lovingly

Cream the aged lines of tensions into
New innocence

Let the auras of nutritional powders
Highlight the cheeks
And the tones of natural mascara
Liven the shapes of eyes

Moisten the lips of
Dry conversation

Spring clean the mind
Do good
Feel good
Welcome the opportunity for charity

**************************
HAIKU
Charity means love
Bask in the glow of giving
Unconditional
**************************


See new sails
Hear a new drummer
Taste new soul foods

Bless the mirror that looks beyond the face

And bless the feet that
Breathe the freedom of
New moccasins
~

Only a night from old to new!
And that is the difference!

Let this be
Our manifesto
~
