Notes About The Poem

California Calling--Image

CALIFORNIA CALLING 

Living my dream!
Surmounts any scheme.
It's like heaven on earth.
No long faces nor dirth.

When your decisions are 
where your heart is.
Love finds you, and your 
dreamy lightness.

That lightness of being works 
like magic for me.
Sitting here beneath my aromatic 
pines and the aroma of my beloved 
orange tree!

Meditation, music and transformation.
Brought me to this point in
my life's station.
Joyful in this blessed California nation!

POETS NOTES...the picture above iis our entrance to the gated, community pool!
It has a lovely jacuzzi and more. Lovely lounge chairs, peaceful place, if there ever was one. Having lived in gigantic cities...this is perfect.
                         Peace and I get along!

You are enjoying life to the fullest, Pangie. Beautiful state you live in - too bad there are a few glitches as we all experience in the places we reside. Great write! Bob

I added some notes, Bob. No glitches in the community where I live. Of course, Newsom has harmed the entire state and up for recall. Meanwhile, I love the climate here, the sanity. I signed the papers for his recall and got others to do so. We are well over the amount needed. I see nothing but good ahead. Hugs, Pangie xx

Lovely Pangie. Reminds me of the old Beach Boys song, "California Dreamin'."

Hey Judy...,that song is so classic. I have spent most of my years in SF when it was clean and sane. It's a city I love but it's not the same....glad I am gone and live elsewhere. Huge, Pangie xx

Madelyn, yes, yes, I am. I do wish freedom for all of us here. We don't have all our freedoms. But I am far from sad! Frustrated at times? Yes. But all going well. Tons of serenity. Hugs, Pangie xx Love Californians!!

It still is! And once we get rid of our Governor who won't open beaches or Disneyland? Will be better. Lockdown here for over a year...,insane as he is. Come back to visit, avoid big cities, this time. Special thanks, Tom. Hugs, Pangie.
