Life is beautiful: More winter musings
http://stevemartin60.blogspot.com/2010/07/more-winter-musings.html
Sharing some of the beauty I see in the world and life everyday. Thursday, 29 July 2010. Sitting on the train staring at the grey landscape. it seems like it has rained every day for a long time. A few thoughts. A thought in the gloom. The dull grey scenery shuffling by. A leaden procession of gloom outside. As the rain slowly falls and smothers the land. With its incessantly miserable hand. Winter drifts by and nary a cry. We look stoically forward with a silent sigh. With resignation, we wish and wait.

Life is beautiful: Some old stuff rediscovered
http://stevemartin60.blogspot.com/2010/12/some-old-stuff-rediscovered.html
Sharing some of the beauty I see in the world and life everyday. Sunday, 5 December 2010. Some old stuff rediscovered. I recently went through the poetry I've written over the last few years and found quite a few that for one reason or another I hadn't published, or even shared with anyone. Reading through them readily explained why some of them had not made a public page. Early efforts that simply served as a learning experience for the writer. The dark tides converge. Closing in, I’m welcoming. Austral...

Life is beautiful: Beautiful moments
http://stevemartin60.blogspot.com/2010/06/beautiful-moments.html
Sharing some of the beauty I see in the world and life everyday. Friday, 25 June 2010. I've recently come across two amazing short films. They've both gotten a lot of hits on YouTube. Despite the very different subject matter in each I see a lot of similarities between them. The movies are: Nuit Blanche. When I first watched Embrace Life. I recently had some time in Tasmania and took the opportunity to spend some while in a beautiful place called Mt. Field National Park. It's a place I remember v...The c...

Life is beautiful: A Morning Conversation
http://stevemartin60.blogspot.com/2010/08/morning-conversation.html
Sharing some of the beauty I see in the world and life everyday. Sunday, 1 August 2010. When I was growing up I just adored the delightful, whimsical verse of Edward Lear. I've often thought how it would be to try my hand at writing in a similar style. This is my first attempt. A blade of grass so green and small. Grows upon the ground. He looks at me so high and tall. And utters not a sound. Good morning sir, and how are you? To him I gently ask. I'm very well today" he says. It's kind of you to ask".

Life is beautiful: A kitchen table
http://stevemartin60.blogspot.com/2010/07/kitchen-table.html
Sharing some of the beauty I see in the world and life everyday. Wednesday, 28 July 2010. After doing a little cooking this evening (a grated chocolate and Passionfruit Pavlova) I was sitting at the kitchen table and was struck by what a multitude of roles something so simple can play in life. A kitchen table in life does stand. To sit and offer a helping hand. Perhaps to listen to a friend. When they need to talk again. Today it's scones with jam and tea. Perhaps a little cream, we'll see.

Life is beautiful: A moment in red
http://stevemartin60.blogspot.com/2010/07/moment-in-red.html
Sharing some of the beauty I see in the world and life everyday. Monday, 26 July 2010. A moment in red. I was walking on the track to West Head in the Northern Beaches area of Sydney today and came across a beautiful Redgum on the side of the track. I stayed there for a few minutes just enjoying the peace of the moment. Later I was reflecting on the day and feeling that I needed to write something. The memory of the moment stood admiring that beautiful Redgum inspired me to write this. A moment in red.

Life is beautiful: A leaf
http://stevemartin60.blogspot.com/2010/07/leaf.html
Sharing some of the beauty I see in the world and life everyday. Friday, 16 July 2010. I thought I'd try something a little different. I've wanted for a while to be able to write on a more regular basis and decided to look at the process from another perspective. A friend suggested recently that I think about combining more than one art form. This an attempt to do that. I can feel the stir of life begin. Emerging with a gentle urgency. A crisp, clean spring awaits. My first tentative, tender reach. Turn ...

Life is beautiful: Inspiration... not lost, just different
http://stevemartin60.blogspot.com/2010/12/inspiration-not-lost-just-different.html
Sharing some of the beauty I see in the world and life everyday. Sunday, 12 December 2010. Inspiration. not lost, just different. Last night, for the first time in a while I was inspired to write.As I got home, getting out of the car, looking at the stars, I'd spent some time with some inspiring people and I felt like the word were there. Wind and scattered sand. The inspiration passed me by. Despite my clutching hand. Its life had ebbed, I felt it die. Just wind and scattered sand. Is what these moment ...

Life is beautiful: Self & Doubt...
http://stevemartin60.blogspot.com/2010/04/self-doubt.html
Sharing some of the beauty I see in the world and life everyday. Friday, 9 April 2010. A few thoughts on during a lunch break on a sunny Friday afternoon. A question arises in my mind. A thought to ponder, time to time. Of who I am both now and then? Is a thought beyond my ken? I stand afraid amongst my peers. And try in vain to calm my fears. That here revealed for all to see. Is the one I've come to be. Does everyone this curse affect. As always we seek to confect. An image that we’ll safely feel.
