I like to get lost in my dreams

like
fields full of flowers.
I like to whisk away
dream away the hours
Some have said
I’m lost in my head
that is precisely my point
I really don’t care
and I’m always aware
I’m lost

let’s get lost

I had to stop what I was doing and post these from your wonderful inspiration.

A flower
for You and a prayer
for calmer waters
more gentleness
more love~
MichelleMarie

Paradise found among the flowers
Love found floating on the breeze
Makes me think…anything is possible
If we only believe

Sunshine’s beams of warmth

Calling out tiger lilies

Bloom in gratitude

To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before is the story of Lara Jean, who has never openly admitted her crushes, but instead wrote each boy a letter about how she felt, sealed it, and hid it in a box under her bed. But one day Lara Jean discovers that somehow her secret box of letters has been mailed, causing all her crushes from her past to confront her about the letters: her first kiss, the boy from summer camp, even her sister’s ex-boyfriend, Josh. As she learns to deal with her past loves face to face, Lara Jean discovers that something good may come out of these letters after all.

No second-book-slump here! P.S. I Still Love You had all of the things that made To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before so great, and then some! Including, inexplicably, ANOTHER love square. How can Lara Jean be in love with two boys at once twice in one year? She doesn’t even know, poor baby.

The slut-shaming issue gets taken to the next level in this book when Lara…

Sometimes I wander the streets of my mind
I notice along the way, the drifting of time
It seems like yesterday, I went this way
Or was it the day before?
It’s hard to really know
When thoughts tap upon my door
Come out they say, let’s play
And you know that’s what I do
Before you know I find myself
Whistling a tune or two
Something sweet like that

Ya know?

I found the ice cream

It was hidden in plain sight

And calling my name
