all you need is love.

Buckets of rain
Buckets of tears
Got all them buckets comin' out of my ears.
Buckets of moonbeams in my hand,
I got all the love, honey baby,You can stand.
I been meek
And hard like an oak
I seen pretty people disappear like smoke.
Friends will arrive, friends will disappear,
If you want me, honey baby,I'll be here.
Like your smile
And your fingertips
Like the way that you move your lips.
I like the cool way you look at me,
Everything about you is bringing me
Misery.
Little red wagon
Little red bike
I ain't no monkey but I know what I like.
I like the way you love me strong and slow,
I'm takin' you with me, honey baby,When I go.
Life is sad
Life is a bust
All ya can do is do what you must.
You do what you must do and ya do it well,
I'll do it for you, honey baby,Can't you tell?

meteor showers.

Hello my Darlings! Sorry it's been a minute...This new year has indeed been a busy one thus far. I hope the BIG '10 (my newly coined term for 2010... spread it like wildfire!) is treating you generously and has already given you proof of all the magic coming this year! I feel like there is so much to tell! The BIG '10 for me seems like a grand meteor shower already- so many bright beautiful things flying through my sky. I'm lifting my hands to reach out and grab them and also to offer praise for the promise of these shooting stars- even if they turn out to fade away or burn my hands.... whichever way it goes, I'm excited. Although I can't go into much detail about it yet, there are some very brilliant lights directly in my path and I can't wait to share them with you, sweet dears.



For now though, here are some bright stars, that I'm just drinking in....



Music... BTW- These are all albums as I couldn't pick just a song or two from each because of how amazing they are...I can't even describe them because I have no words that would do them justice. Just do yourself a favor and dive in.
