"LIFE MEANING IS A MANY SPLENDERED THING"
"LIGHT AND LOVE AND LIFE"
This was inspired through my living so many decades of life intensely and creatively!
This is dedicated to all young human beings to learn the difference between being addicted to love and real love, of true compassion and friendship that must go hand in hand with companionship.’

LIFE MEANING IS A MANY SPLENDERED THING
LIGHT AND LOVE AND LIFE
Looking around the globe through dreams
Of life it seems
I met a girl one day
As I walked along the way
To the crossroads of decision
Of her vision
Of love to give
Somehow the girl was young and naïve.
The girl told me she was in the light
Despite
Her tear in her eye

That fell to the ground
So, round,
And sad she said.
I told her to breathe in, breathe out,
Slowly my baby girl,
Of the world.
She told me she was only 30 years old.
I told her how she looked 22 years old.
She laughed at that note
Of light despite
She looked so young and so tiny she was,
Cause
I told her I wanted to talk to her
About her life,
Despite
Her strife
Of life
I told her you should just not marry,
As there are men who do block a woman to tie her down
To a scary
How did this happen?
I told her do not marry
Or carry a baby
For a guy who she just met
Lady
I said,
“Your career is just the beginning,
Of writing and photography and stories of birth, life, and death.”
She would be winning,
Around the world
To twirl
Not into a man’s arms to block her
Love and light.
I predicted she would marry
And carry babies but only for his name to spread with his legacy,
As the truth would come
Creeping up the path of betrayal
Of lies,
Like the seven years itch of time
He would lie
and
Leave her alone.
She was so in love with love
From below and above.
He lied everyday.
She would approach him
Of infidelity of his nights away
Were not spent alone.
She would cry for along
Time as he will lie,
Steal her children and continue to lie.
Woman I told her please create
Your stories and art
Keep apart
From men who manipulate
Women to have their babies.
I told her again,
“Please Don’t except the guy’s bait
To hypnotize her to not wait
But except his sweet nothings in her ear
To meditate
Long and hard
Not to be his cake
Of his namesake of life
Out of her strife.”
I told her not to go with him.
She looked at me with this reply, “It is too late my dear friend.
I am with child, and we marry next week.”
I look at her in awe because
She barely knew the guy,
And then I smiled and said, “Seriously my child you are addicted to love!”
So, she went her own way.
Today

I saw her again and she began
To tell me with sadness in her voice,
“My ex continues to harbor a grudge today.
I had no choice but to walk away.
He was untrue and lied.
Every day and every night
So now I should have listened to you, my friend.”
I told her, “Fear not my child. You will find peace again.
You will win.
You will spin,
The world around on its axis,
To create a new prose
A
New beginning
As you are a good person who
Will always be in the light,
Despite
The darkness of the night
And someday her children would know the truth,
Of heartache and manipulation of the psychic mind
To expand beyond the torment of grudges and voodoo
Of hate projected into her
And she would reject the darkness of the shadow person,
Of the darkness of the night.”
I wished her well,
To tell the tale
Of a naïve 30-year-old
Addicted to love
Would finally realize,
Love is life.
The meaning of life
Is a many splendored thing,
Through queens and kings
We all are our own queen,
Our own king
As we learn to love each other to care,
To share.
However, the ex of the girl I know will never give up his grudges or hate.
Fate is that karma will be in his fate
As he will relate to lies found out
As of late
I wished my friend a good day
Along the way.
I walked today,
To say
I was the girl in the world
Of swirls of cotton candy
And sodas and night caps
Of late
I carry.
We are all connected.
We all are souls and light.
I beg of you my child
You look affright,
To see through tears and fears
Of laughter in the night
I stand back.

Look in the mirror
at
Reflections of life
Of dreams
Of courage
Of tears of fears
Of being alone
So long.
'Anything Worth Holding On To' (Matt Bloyd and Chrissy Metz)'
My naïve self
I put you back on the shelf
To be read another day
As I walk the pathway
Of today
Yesterday
Tomorrow.
‘WIKIPEDIA INTERPRETATION OF LIFE ‘
“Meaning of life
The meaning of life pertains to the inherent significance or philosophical meaning of living (or
existence in general). There is not a definitive answer, and thinking or discourse on the topic is
sought in the English language through the question, "What is the meaning of life?" (or the
related "Why are we here?" or "What is the purpose of existence?"). There have been many
proposed answers to these questions from many different cultural and ideological backgrounds.
The search for life's meaning has produced much philosophical, scientific, theological, and
metaphysical speculation throughout history. Different people and cultures believe different
things for the answer to this question. Opinions vary on the usefulness of using time and
resources in the pursuit of an answer. Excessive pondering can be indicative of, or lead to, an
existential crisis.”

‘Inspiration inspired me to write this prose of free verse and rhyme by dreams and by analyzing the people I have met in my 74 years of life on this Earth.
The upheaval of war on women reminded me of relationships and old friends and myself. Are we not all connected?
The division of personality and wisdom of right or left is so disjointed in 2024.
Women are smart. Women do not need a man around to make them happy. To be genuinely happy in love with another human being one must have so many commonalities. Opposites do not attract each other. The reason two opposites go together is only a noticeably short time. To live with another human being in love is to laugh, cry and be there for each other out of respect, to show compassion and love. A compassionate person will never be happy with a narcissistic selfish human being. Seek out companionship out of a warm feeling of empathy towards each other.
To live together in marriage people should not try to manipulate each other as manipulation and rudeness and lies have no part in a lasting relationship between two people. Two people in meaning of woman to man, woman to woman, or man to man. Life and friendship and love meaning is to love intensely and passionately in the truth as lovers and friends.’
