The Kingdom is Here

Diamond Mike Watson 

kiss

I lie on my back
A leaf falls gently on my lips
I feel the breeze
For once I am alive

I am here
Cause you are there
And this is this
Cause that is that

There is nothing I can do
For I am only an image of you
The kingdom is here

Adoption Life Adventures

He found his birth family 35 years later. Then he helped them find a ‘vanished’ sister.

Arika Herron, Indianapolis Star Published 5:14 p.m. ET Aug. 24, 2019. https://www.indystar.com/story/news/2019/08/24/adopted-indianapolis-man-helps-birth-family-find-vanished-sister-muncie/2087285001/\ Everyone in “Diamond” Mike Watson’s life told him he should give up. The baby in the 60-year-old photograph was probably dead. And if she wasn’t, they said, she may not want to be found. It wasn’t out of callousness or apathy. The opposite […]

Today I filed a missing persons report for my sister, Debra Kay. It appears there was never such a report filed since she vanished as a child. This will be submitted to the Indianapolis police, where my birthmother was living at the time of her disappearance. I hope the relationships I have forged with my […]

The Anniversary Ring

“You love birds can sit here with me if you want,” the elderly man said to the young couple desperately looking for a vacant breakfast table. “I’ll be leaving soon, and it looks like these are the last empty chairs in the house.” The Garden Terrace was a romantic spot that peered across the Pacific […]

Millions of people also believe in the power of prayer.  Surely this concentration of thought will lean toward a positive result. Surely with our focused intention our prayers will […]

    yes, the kingdom is here. I love this poem.
    Thank you for following my blog. I hope you enjoy our travel ramblings, both inner and outer.
    Jewellery is not my thing, and I can’t listen to your music yet because we are currently in Laos and internet speed is slow. However….. I love all the quotes, and your philosophy of positive energy, and giving back.
    If we could all practice gratitude and choose to focus on all that is good, or even at least OK, what a different world it would be. I strive to live in that world, and of all the things I’ve been blessed with I’m most grateful for learning how to be grateful.
    Blessings

    That leaf looks like a pair of lips (duh! I’m sure). I love it!
