this shalom aleichem

is shaky and sad

and every verse rhymes

with a tear

the candle flames (lit

seventeen minutes late)

are alight

unlike any hearts here

the angels of shabbos

both look the scene over

then turn to each other

and both heave a sigh

may it be like this next week

the evil one utters

amen

says the good one

the evil asks

why?

this home is a mess

and the people are too

yes, the food is prepared

but that’s all they could do

upset and unsettled

the bed left unmade

the table unset

and the lighting delayed

this shabbos is laden

with hurt and with pain

so how can you see this

and answer ‘amen’?

may it be like this next week

the good one replies

(watching the people

with tears in their eyes)

that candles are kindled

before the sun sets

that through all their struggles

they manage to rest

to honor shabbat

in the ways that they may

they gave it their best

and they got through the day

may it be like this weekly

in every domain

the evil one sighs

and then answers

amen

as shalom aleichem

soon draws to its end

the angels depart

as the lyrics ascend

the house is still filthy

the troubles don’t cease

yet still, here we are

blessing angels of peace

may peace be upon you

they pray in return

perhaps not this week

but the candles still burn

What we seek, however, is not power over people, but the power of control of our own destiny:

ALL POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

Maybe it's the way you say my name. Maybe it's the way you play your game. But it's so good, I've never known anybody like you. But it's so good, I've never dreamed of nobody like you. And I've heard of a love that comes once in a lifetime. And I'm pretty sure that you are that love of mine 'Cause I'm in a field of dandelions Wishing on every one that you'd be mine, mine. And I see forever in your eyes. I feel okay when I see you smile:)

Born of whispers in the wind, Their journey starts, no roots to bind, They tell a tale of fleeting dreams, Of hopes that soar on gentle streams.

"What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again."

- Suzanne Collins

“Some people turn sad awfully young. No special reason, it seems, but they seems almost born that way. They bruise easier, tire faster, cry quicker, remember longer and, as I say, get sadder younger than anyone else in the world. I know, for I’m one of them.”

Ray Bradbury, Dandelion Wine

dandelions for anarchy, rebellion, and a stubbornness like no other

#look im aware that thats not what dandelions mean but. cmon.#a dandelion grows through the cracks in the concrete streets in a suburb. it brings the chaos of wild growth in the order of plain suburbia #and a rebellion through living. it preserveres despite harsh conditions and blooms #is that not beauty? is that not exactly like grian?#its poetry is what it is #gamble the queue #art #my art #digital art #artists on tumblr #fanart #fan art #drawing #hermitcraft #grian #grian hermitcraft

after too long in exile

I hear Yiddish and feel immediately at home.

I hear Yiddish and the rhythms sound like family.

I hear Yiddish and my heart yearns for more.

I hear Yiddish feel Yiddish want Yiddish am Yiddish

I hear Yiddish and I do not understand a word.

At the wishing well

Daydreaming...

Looking in I could see my reflection

Outlined silhouette of my soul

Sometimes you have to dive deep

To a place you think you have never been before

How do I explain this beautiful pain that lives inside me

Putting me in a state of grace

On the verge of crying yet holding back

The connection of here and now to thereafter

Bonds formed through life experiences and beyond

Through love, time and space

I travel through this lifetime reaching universes unexpected

A knowing that life's eternity carries me through all existence

Knowing everything is always the same in oneform or another

Shifting everything inside of me till it feels good or not

Allowing me to grow with creation

Allowing me to see more of it all

The sparkle of shinny things

making a wish

The sound of silence

Tlw

“Sleeping With Dandelions”

Lewis Newman recently won first prize in the Animal Portraits category of the 2023 British Wildlife Photography Awards, capturing a sweet image of a female fox moving through a woodland that has been partially destroyed by industrialism with a face full of dandelion floaties

Plant flowers in my wounds, preferrably yellow ones but others are welcome too.

Don't bury me in the ground. Please.

Strip away my flesh and use my skeleton as a halloween decoration. Use my ashes in a cake, or some candy or any other type of food. Place my rotting body inside a cave or a hollow tree, so an adventurer can find me rotting away with flower growing between my ribs. Let my corpse be the most beuatiful bouqet ever seen. Let the smell of dandelions overpower the smell of decay. Burn me to keep the fireplace from dying as I have. Eat me to keep yourself from starving.

Let me be of use even in my death.

Let me entertain you. Let me scare you. Let me help you. Let me suprise whoever stumbles upon my rotting flesh.

I want to live on while my body is rotting, my skin decaying and my lungs no longer breathing. I want to grow flowers in my eyesockets.

If Ive been shot through my skull, place purple irises through the bleeding wound.

If my heart is torn out, let bluebells use my flesh as soil.

If my eyes are gouged out plant variegated tulips in the eye sockets.

Let wildflowers grow through my rot, let dandelion beam from all my open wounds. Let my corpse breathe through the flowers, keeping me from ever really dying with their life and constant growing.

Yes, let me die, but don't bury me in the ground. Bury me in flowers, so many that you can hardly see the rotting flesh. So colorfull flowers that you can ignore the blood staining them. So goodsmelling the my decay wont be noticed. So beatiful that you forget that its a corpse, and not a garden.

Make sure that Im more alive then I ever could dream of, despite being a corpse. Despite my guts being spilled on the ground. Despite my eyeballs no longer filling my sockets. Despite my blood seeping out and my heart not beating.

I want to live in a way that no one quite living can. My corpse living on far longer than I can, and the flowers revelling in my corpse out living myself.

I want my immortality gained through flowers.

If I ever die, my immortality will be gained with my corpse.

#is this poetry or my will?#yes #i dont know what possesed me to write this but i like it #poetry #spilled ink #9co writes #i really love dandelions and flowers

flown from behind the ear

came a dandelion tuft,

a single and lone seed,

and i wondered:

who must have wished?

on such a breezy day,

surely it had been ol' Wind;

or he be the messenger, and

perhaps on his breath

the lingering of a kiss,

a love to be carried here,

in a prayer solemn, or hope—
