Illusions

Magnificent, very well crafted.

The Questioning Way

Illusions

I sat at the table earlier tonight
looking out the open sliding glass door.
A light outside lined up with the door frame
so that when I leaned a certain way,
it appeared to shine on both sides of the frame.
They call this an optical illusion because
the perception of two lights
when there is really only one depends upon
the way your brain-box processes the information
it receives from your two eyes.
Yet, to you the light appears to split into two beams.

For the same reason they say
rainbows are optical illusions because
they aren’t really there and you see them only because
your brain-box processes the refraction of light
off of raindrops in a certain way so there appears
to be a beautiful curve of colors off in the distant sky.

The secret my friends is that everything you see around you
all day long…

Sleep Well Oscar de la Renta.

A Stairway To Fashion

Legendary designer Oscar de la Renta, the couturier of the first ladies  since Jacqueline Kennedy, and the red carpet king died on Monday, at the age of 82. His death was confirmed by his wife, Anette de la Renta, the cause being complications from a cancer diagnosed back in 2006.

“The only realities in life are that you are born, and that you die,” Mr. de la Renta said in “Fashion Talks” series in 2013.  “We always think we are going to live forever.

And what a life he lived – born in the Dominican Republic, the only son of a large family with seven children, de la…

Roses by Mia McInnis

ROSES

We Are But Roses
Intertwine
Petals And Thorns
In Our Minds.
Cutting, Bleeding
Red As Blood
Comfort Fining
In Each Bud.

The roots reach down
The leaves reach out
The thorns protect us
From our doubts.

We Are But Roses
Both Strong And Small,
Here In This World
Our Garden Wall.
Each Is Different
Intertwine –
We Are But Roses
In Our Minds.
