Five of Thankfulness
the aching pull of loss
breaks open my tired heart
unleashing remnants
of long-ago stories
fairy tales grown weary
shattering my blue sky
into glittering shards
that fall to earth
in shimmering arcs
shining rainbows
asserting their Beauty
eclipses this fleeting pain
calling me to see with eyes
freshly tuned
to audacious Beauty
Interpretation: Losses litter the background. In your need, seek help. Notice the Beauty that remains, keeping your heart open to receive and share her gifts.
this is so beautiful Teresa. You are so magnificent for doing something different and weaving together all these complimentary words into one superbly infused short and sweet poetic tapestry. Love to you for all you do and are. big love. xo Thank you for including me in your musings, I am honored.
A very beautiful interpretation. I know a lot of people will appreciate that message.
I love the line: Breaks open my tired heart
This really spoke to me today and has made me realize a bit of self care is needed to rest. Thank you!
Teresa, absolutely beautiful.
The interpretation is particularly poignant for me, “Losses litter the background. In your need, seek help. Notice the Beauty that remains, keeping your heart open to receive and share her gifts.”
Thank you for this. xoxo
YES! freshly tuned to Audacious Beauty – ready to be saved by her! LOVE it!
Wow, these cards are so unique. I love their simplicity and beauty. They appeal to my gentle, artistic side. How lovely and divine. Congrats on your deck and wishing you much success and love on your path.
Yes. Beautiful! Love the messages. Love the art. Thanks for this.
This image is striking… when I first looked, I thought it was an overturned garbage can spilling out papers onto a large expanse of grass. I didn’t realize right away it was a broken flower.
It makes me think of a quote from the band Frou Frou: “there’s beauty in the breakdown” So too is the beauty and grace it takes putting the pieces back together. A lovely card.
I Love the simple beauty of your cards and your words!
This line is really settling in with me-
Notice the Beauty
that remains, keeping your heart open to receive and share her gifts.
I’m noticing your beauty right now.
Teresa. I am a raving fan…Love your work!
This is gorgeous Teresa – your writing & the card. You’re doing such amazing work. And the idea of staying thankful even while in the midst of loss rings true to me at the moment. Thank you for sharing!
I’ve had my share of aching loss lately, so this really appeals to me, Teresa. Beautifully written and captured, as always.
