To discover the source of this alchemical love within is to uncover the deepest secrets of the soul. It is to unearth and align with the ultimate truth of who we are.

It is perhaps, its ability to penetrate the multidimensional layers of the human condition at all, that makes poetry and art so valuable in today's modern age.

In our most vulnerable hour, it is helpful to remember our creative power.

Love's alchemical power is nevermore clear than in the moments when we least expect it to grace our lives; for love transforms, love transcends, love awakens.

Love cannot be contained, love is destined to transcend and change.

Like dust brushed from an old painting, as we journey beneath the surface layers of life, another landscape is revealed.

A seed doesn't stay beneath the soil, too afraid to grow. It journeys upwards boldly, for that is all it knows.

Don't dwell too long on the past, forgive and let it go. Too many hours have been wasted on old regrets and sorrow.

Upon the earth I rest, like the trees of autumn on a bed of leafy gold, nourished by roots of old.
