If you ever need a boost, a helping hand a positive affirmation throughout the year, please take a moment to read the above. You are your own boss, anyone else’s projections onto you are about them and their intentions and issues. As a very wise young person said while we were riding a bus, listen don’t judge: we all need to make choices and they are only about ourselves not about another, we have one life to live, be honest with yourself, be kind to eachother we don’t know what they are going through….DM or call me, I’m happy to listen. 🩵💙🩷 peace and love taken in Westchester County by @lbweissman

When I posted to my story so many asked for the poem that accompanies this painting…so here goes, 🫶🏼

When September ends, a whisper stirs, upon the cool and vibrant breeze, where sunlight gently shines, A season of change, profound and bright, illuminates our grow with an appetite for warm light.

The last blooms of summer, with colors aglow, embrace the encroaching autumnal sight , in a vibrant show of delight
Petals in soft surrender, now dance in the breeze, as nature unveils her artistry with humility and grace .

Colliding hues of gold and rust,
Remind us of transformation, in change, we trust.
Reconnect, relearn, reclaim what’s fills us up as we seek answers cloaked in silent suspense.

Leave behind the burden of what does not thrive,
Nurture the seeds of connection, let friendship revive.
In this tapestry woven with threads of grace, that we cultivate solace, a warm, sacred space.

Reflect upon the passage, embrace the rhythm of time, within every ending there is a new chance to climb.
In the quiet embrace of the shifting tides, May we find our footing where wisdom abides.

As September departs, let us all discern, In the quiet of autumn, our hearts still yearn.
Through change, we blossom, together we stand, In the beauty of friendship, linked hand in hand.

In vessel deep, where patience dwells, With gratitude a heart swells
An echo of each whispered win,
A tapestry of love begins.

Appreciation flows like streams,
As laughter dances through our dreams. In whispered tones, we softly plead, lay close, hear the silence breathe.

Through tangled woods, you guide my soul, A journey vast help make us whole. The forest breathes, a tranquil hymn, the birthing place of light within.

The quiet wraps us in its grace,
Yet life, a canvas, leaves its trace.
In messy strands, our moments blend, A tapestry of sorrow mends.

sadness, like a fleeting shade,
Is truncated by the joys we’ve laid.
In every turn, a lesson found,
In every heartbeat, love abound.

So let us pause, in reverent still,
And cherish all that time can fill.
For in this vessel, rich and true,
The essence of our bond shines through.

In every note of gratitude’s song,
Together, dear, is where we belong

A little sketch Inspired by the forest in Sitka Alaska

In realms where silver whispers weave, Amidst the trees, the silence breathes,
A tapestry of life unfolds,
In a spectrum of shades where nature molds.

Each leaf a story, every breeze a song, the pulse of existence, steadfast and strong,
where shadows dance, life intertwines in its timeless romance.

Purposeful death, a cycle revered,
From fallen limbs, new growth is steered, food and sustenance, the earth’s embrace,
In this sanctuary, all find their place.

Intentionally crafted, this intricate lore, Nature’s design, ever at its core, a symphony of silence, profound and deep, awakens the spirits, as ancient roots seep.

Eternal care, in the stillness bestowed, guardians of balance on this winding road,
The last frontier, where shadows flow, in each whispered secret the world bestow

honor the silence, let reverence flow,
The trees, our witnesses, and quiet tableau, in the embrace of their watchful shade, life’s fleeting moments in stillness cascade. taken in Baranof Island by @lbweissman

Upon the shores where waters ebb and flow, tides retreat, yet steadfast mountains grow.
In silent majesty, their peaks arise,
A testament to time’s unyielding ties.

Sweeping storms, relentless in their quest, Crash upon the land, put patience to the test.
Yet, even as the wild winds whirl and scream, the drift and mountain hold their ground, strong as a dream.

Naked shadows striped by time dance upon the crested waves,
As nature’s forces clash, the earth behaves.
In polar battles of the sea and stone,
Resilience crafts a story all its own.

Soft ground beneath, yet firm, they stand their truth,
In quiet strength, silent power found. For in this dance of chaos and of calm, the earth’s own heart beats steady, fierce, and warm.

Through tempests fierce and gentle, sunlit sigh, the tides do rise, unbowed beneath the sky.
An ode to strength, to harmony’s embrace, where water ebbs and giants find their place.

In every swell, the echoes of the past, our timeless truth, eternal and steadfast.
Through trials fierce, in beauty unite, A testament to life’s enduring light.

In twilight’s grace, where shadows softly dance, once entwined, once filled with vibrant chance,
laughter woven through the fabric of time, now silence speaks when bonds no longer rhyme.

What was once so bright now dims beneath the weight of a dulling light
As values shift within life’s pressing gait the memories of the magic garden fade away at dusk before it’s too late.

Embrace the truth, though bittersweet the part,
‘Cause often growth requires willingness of heart.
In letting go, we carve a clearer way,
To nurture self amidst the dawn of a new day.

Though paths may diverge and distances grow, the echo of shared joys stores below will always offer a
A gentle kindness, a soft , lasting glow.

So step back now, release what’s meant to fade,
For in this space, new dreams can be made.
Though friendships change, they etch a sacred place,
In memory’s heart, they find their timeless grace.

In whispered woods where shadows play,
A Red Storm brews, a tempest’s sway,
Emerging from the a passing veil,
A solem and resonant cry prevails.

With branches bowed, in silence steeped,
Life and death in twilight leaped,
Exchanging glances, bold and bright,
In the heart of the forest’s trembling light.

The choice is ours, a key to life
To tread with purpose, an artful heart.
Through gnarled roots and gilded leaves,
We forge a path, our spirit weaves.

So let us wander, hand in hand,
In this realm, both wild and grand.
elevate those who tread our way,
Illuminating night with dawn’s soft ray.

every step holds a sacred weight,
As echoes merge with fate’s own gate.
Remember the forest’s deep embrace,
And kindle hope, to lift us all with a gentle embrace.

In quiet echoes, the earth speaks soft, the hushed embrace of twilight’s grace,
Transforming mood, a whispered loft.
Through secret cloaks, the chaos fades away,
In tranquil spaces shadows play.

Beneath the surface, #memory lies deep, And vast reservoirs of feeling slowly seep.Let each moment cradle like a sigh, where #vulnerability dons strength to fly.

Amidst the thickets, a pretense dissolves, as truths emerge, and hidden form evolve
Release the burdens of connection’s strain altered realities unfurl—no pain.
We navigate our rivers, courage born, behind the trees where judgments lay forsworn. Each heart, a vessel brimming with its load,
A path for peace, for our thirsting souls.

It’s in this community of silent grace,
That narrative unfolds in timeless space, as we traverse the echoes of our past,
We find the peace within, our #souls amassed.

So linger here, where earth and spirit blend, #embrace the stillness, let your #journey mend as

Peace, our unbroken promise, becomes the hearts end taken in New York, New York by @lbweissman
