Red
Move Quick
Slow Down
The unhurried flow of the river as it moves over and around the sun beaten rocks, no predicted path, stable until the earth pattern changes and shifts under them
Smooth and strong, grey and pitted ,with deep scars. The fallen tree that supports two or more bodies and the weight that they carry
Basking in the open moment of giving and receiving love
Red Alert
Move Quickly
Inside I can sense the fear
Shut down
Heart beating out of control, in need of an empathetic touch before it freezes
Why do we allow cruel, jaded, illusions to rule and seep into our thoughts?
Bleeding
Slow Down
Courage to face fear
Feeling my heart hurt , I breath in
Finding hurt where I want to find love, I breath out
Red runs through all our veins
Listen to the quiet breeze swirling around
Feel the heat of the sun warm your cheek
Smell the sweet woods after the fallen rain let it wake you up, your alive!
Taste the lips of another
Balancing Scales
Not to fast ,
Not to slow ,
No holding on to an outcome
Open heart and mind
The color Red grounding me
