Welcome to Songbird's Nest and Starflowers!

Here it is safe to relax for a bit,
but also to be vibrant and intense,
like the birth of a new star!

The dichotomy of living an authentic life
is always thus, to balance between the
calm and peaceful safety of our familiar
and feathered nest, and to fly out to the
limits of our imagination to discover,
create and redeem this world from
the darkness that pulls at the light.

The night's darkness, the winter's
darkness ~ these are good and holy,
but the darkness of a damaged
beyond repair, destructive, greedy
or completely selfish force must be escaped.

Escape velocity must be reached, and
then safe landings must return.
No wonder we are all spinning like
the colorful musical amazing beings
we are. We must.

Sending love to every soul, every friend
who finds me here. Peace and love.

Returning, rebirth, new growth

Here we are on the precipice of Spring. I am working toward ways to connect all my ideas and creative endeavors here on my blog. It seems like a demanding proposition for me and for you to make separate blogs for music, craft, books, and life...so I am hoping that it will resonate with you to read about the different facets of my quest to make art, handmade beauty, music, and to speak about reason and kindness all here in one place. I will be trying to make at least short entries regularly to keep you up with new projects and gigs, ideas and brainstorms that must come flashing out. Blessings and peace.
