Shine the Divine:

Creativity IS a Spiritual Practice

When we see through our hearts, we recognize that every single one of us is infused with creativity. Divine Sparks are embedded in everyone and everything. It's up to us to be courageous, to look and listen deeply, to find the sparks, gather and release them back into the universe, transformed into something new. Join me as we wake up to the sacred-ordinary blessings waiting to greet us each and every day.

Serendipity


the wiper blended a glass canvas view into abstraction
my heart and mind fell in love with serendipity
gone with the next pass of the blunt blade
preserved in a photograph nonetheless
the magic of movement exquisitely
stilled in a randomly blessed
moment of perfect
accord

    Wow Laura. Who would think of photographing wiper blades? Only you because you're so creative.

    I've been away for a few days, glad to be back reading your inspirational posts.

    It is the fleeting moments, the ability to see beauty in the seemingly insignificant, that truly build a poet...fine, fine work.

    That truly is an awesome photo...... but I hate it when that happens when I'm on the highway...... I turn the wipers on and it just smears across and I can't see a thing...... your poem and photo are exactly symbiotic, quite beautiful.....

    To see beyond what is not clear because it is.

    You have the gift of vision . . . and of words.

    This is a clever poem and insightful, too. I really like it.

    Cheers!
