The Three Charms

What do you see in these pictures?

The Dragonfly

A dead dragonfly could mean transformation or the completion of a cycle of change. To me the dragonfly alway seems to say that there is more inner work to be done and that there’s more magic to hope for. It tells me to keep looking for those moments when life seems happy or when you’ve learned more about yourself in a different way. It kind of lights up a path for you. That don’t stop, don’t lose heart there’s better days ahead.

The mystic dragonfly

Through it’s deep spirit

Is telling me to

Behold the magic

Of the days ahead

The Frangipani

When you look at a frangipani you feel love. When I saw it lying below the splendor of the tree, it reminded me how my walk was so filled with love. It was a street busy with people, dogs and pink and blue skies. Taken on the same day I clicked the dragonfly. Suddenly nature was sending me signs of love and life, spirituality and awakening.

I walk

And there below my feet

A white flower like a pin wheel

Filling my day

With love

And an open heart

Affectionate and charming

As the flower had been

And so it is

I walk

The Night

I love pictures of my hood. This day had been so symbolic, I felt this picture held the day with these three charms; the dragonfly, the frangipani and the night. Sometimes all you need is simplicity and you know your life is working in mysterious ways.

The night

Always brings out the beauty of the hood

An egg man on his cycle

The security talking to someone at home

The season lights are still on

Lighting up the hood and the night

In a glowing green

The night

In which I sit alone
