we all are gypsies of a sort wandering traveling through this life other lives space and time here there and yon on roads less traveled - this is a written and visual journal of my own travels - imagined and/or real - come along with me - we'll dance among the stars under the sun and over the moon - share our stories around the campfire - come along -

this site is simply a streamofconsciousness rambling of words and images in which i find meaning and beauty - there is no organized order of thought or format -
poetry painting and writing on love and life and things thereof from the heart and through the eyes of a louisiana gypsy spirit travelin' roads less traveled...enjoy -

THE GYPSYWOMAN WORLD

My photo
A...WOMAN IN MOTION WITH HAIR AS DARK AS NIGHT HER EYES WERE LIKE THAT OF A CAT IN THE DARK... SHE WAS A GYPSYWOMAN... she danced round and round... from the fire her face was all aglow... she was dancing... dancing... waiting for the RISING SUN... loving caring relationships are like THE RISING SUN...we are nourished by their warmth...we are energized by their strength...we grow in their light...we find shelter and solace there...they are our sanctuary... born in the sign of the sun, i am a true LEO-love the sun and its hot orange red fire-passionate in and about everything i do-i believe in instant chemistry charisma love/lust at first sight-in the magic of the eyes and the beauty of the soul-in the instant recognition familiarity in meeting someone from a past life and in the knowledge that we might meet in a future life-i believe that we are each ageless and flawless-i believe in the beauty of the moment-the whisper of yesterday-the hope of tomorrow-the power of forgiveness for even ourselves-the absolute and total beauty of love---[credit to brian hyland and curtis mayfield]

to passion, butterfly days - and keats...


























i almost wish
we were butterflies
and liv'd but
three summer days —
three such days with you
i could fill with more delight
than fifty common years
could ever contain

and then the wv of the day is *8* letters long..oy vey..make me very tired these things... xxx ... hope you can stop using it soon. ;)

yes, powerful and gentle at the same time - could anything be more divine, dear linda? i think not - and keats - well, what can one say of him? and his work? magnificent is far too inadequate, isn't it?

so sorry for the mandatory wv's - i've had a number of sordid spamming things as a result of not using wv at least - please don't let it deter your visits, though!!! i came by your place yesterday and browsed and browsed - went to every "room" and "nook and cranny" - love all you've done there and that you keep doing! gorgeous place, lady!:)

me, too, trish - and i've just fallen in love with his work all over again by watching bright star - the fab movie of his short life and the love of his life - beautiful movie - i've gone back over it in parts several times just for his words!

when my friend and i first began our relationship, this was a quote by which we defined our time of those several years - three summer days - sigh -

Nice one - softly spoken but hammering the point across.
Cheers, Sausage...

GYPSYWOMAN said...

yes, for sure, mister fingers - it reminds me of that line from the movie "steel magnolias" about 10 minutes of wonderful as opposed to a lifetime of ordinary - my feelings exactly, however - give me those magnificent 10 minutes! ;)
