LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

this rain is relentless
such a summer of wetness and water
but the leaves drink and grow and stretch
expand and drink, grow and drink
until we go down in a tsunami of green

this rain is relentless
such a summer of wet winds and transition
but the green earth sings
hail to the rush of river
the bursting of banks ......


part of a poem by jehanne mehta

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

at last i was blessed with the meeting close up of a llama who made delightful
noises at me in its throat!

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

that moment when pain stops

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

the moment you wake up from light to dark

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

the moment when all noise stops

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

standing in a room listening to a friend when you havent been able to do that in years and dancing one armed

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

the uplifting richness of stained glass
