Many have asked me where the idea for my DVD programming
for preschoolers, “I Believe in Me! came from.
It came from the children’s version of this book,
Whispers of Color
for children
The idea for the adult book came to me “As whispers in the night”
to this day I am forever grateful that I woke up and began writing. . .

Brown
What is Brown?
Brown is the center
it is the reality of what is.
It’s the “Don’t look back” of life
the every dayness of certainty.
It is what “holds” it altogether,
the backdrop upon which to rest,
the source of the harvest,
the core of it all.
Brown is the belly of the laugh
the stock of the stew
the balance of the beam
the calm upon the lake.
Brown is the positiveness of a “Yes”
and the strength of a “No.”
Brown is the taking care of ourselves,
the loving yourself enough to care.
It is the anchor of your health.
What is Your Brown?

the catch in tomorrow

Mist makes no choice
as to where it lands,
it happens
it doesn’t become.
Mist is the feeling you get
before an event
and long after it’s gone.
Mist is memory.
Mist smells of brewed tea
in the cup by the window
It hides in the doilies of yesterday
and into the coasters of today.
Mist fills your heart
as well as you soul.
What is Your Mist?

travels in the ground
to escape with the lava,
it flies through the air
and
melts hail. . .

it can melt the steel in your enemies' eye

THE BLUE THAT HAS NO NAME
What is the Blue That Has No Name?
There is a Blue that has no name
it exists because it is.
It walks with the assurance
of integrity and the calmness of knowing.
Depth to its core it is.
It carries a smile of wanting more
with the hidden current of passion,
and whispers of wholeness,
truth and desire.
This mysterious blue is found
in the curl of the ocean wave,
it rest on the cleanness of crisp sheets
just as the spring breeze
creeps through the open window
to touch upon forms
lying still in sleep.
It can be found in the stillness of deep woods
and in the knowledge
of the rocks
that were here before you and I.
The Blue that has no name
is the heart of a child
centered in the wholeness of a man.
The Blue that has no name
I can call friend.
What is your Blue that has no name?

AMBROSIA
What is Ambrosia?
Ambrosia is the beginning of life,
rejoicing
to the anticipation
of what is to come.
Ambrosia is real, alive and alert.
Ambrosia's touch
is feather light
like the passing breeze,
but will never be forgotten.
Ambrosia remembers
lazy summer days,
footprints falling on a dusty path,
shadows across the moon,
ripples upon the lake.
Ambrosia smells
like sensuous oil
that has lingered on the skin.
Laughter becomes Ambrosia,
soft colors of peach
and pink
are within its reach.
Ambrosia was here long ago,
awakes at noon
and
under stars does dance.
Ambrosia is the belief into a tomorrow
that is yet to come.
What is your Ambrosia?

jangles and jewelry.
Silver Threaded Mercury
loves the sun resting
behind the mountains
and is within the last ray of the day.

to be alive,

INDIGO BLUE
What is Indigo Blue?
Indigo Blue is always there,
It is knowing the anchor,
yet allowing the sail.
Indigo Blue encourages,
and believes.
Indigo Blue is strength
coming from what seemed
like nowhere
to journey into forever.

in the shadows,
in the trees,
in the hopes.

sometime not,
but it never stops.
Indigo Blue knows your hurt
as well as your joys.

but a child of the heart it remains.

I carry in my heart
and in my soul as well.

EARTH BLUE
What is Earth Blue?
Earth Blue is the blue that comes
from nature to live in awe
upon the land.
Earth Blue sees in wonderment
the heart of the animal,
the sigh of the lamb,
the look of the wren.
Earth Blue knows the meaning of creatures,
and the atonement of nature.
Earth Blue sits by the pond,
and is silent on the trodden path.
Earth Blue relaxes in the rustling leaves,
and is sheltered in the woods.
Earth Blue is at home only in the nature of things,
other places it merely visits.
Earth Blue laughs with abandonment and
knows how to cry as well.
Earth Blue I can call brother.
What is your Earth Blue?

Thank You,
Hope you enjoyed escaping
into colorful dreaming. . .
