¶Popsicle Blue¶
Inspiration:
The inspiration for this blog post is for us to enliven beautiful childhood memories………the sights, the smells, the colors, the sounds, the tastes, the people, places, and things that take us into that world where our steps were innocent and when wonder was in the forefront of everything.
ΞThe Magic of childhoodΞ
Rejuvenating those happy timeless childhood memories help us to slow down, to take it easy, to rekindle a feeling most of us desire to hold as a keepsake in our current lives.
The magical world we naturally entertained in our youth can be revived and incorporated within activities and perspectives we engage in now ~ swirling in our awareness, warming our heart, as it softens daily life and helps attune us to a fresh new relaxed way of moving and being about.
♥Where the heart goes…
Certain childhood memories stir a heat heart sun feeling ~ a wash of peace, of Awe, that all is well, and that we are completely taken care of.
⇑Popsicle Blue⇓
Remember laying on the green grass when a child and looking up to the sky and opening up to that immense space of infinite sky. The wonder of it all. That Sky High feeling. Practically everyday we look at the sky ~ but do we really? Let’s experience it again with those fresh eyes, with that sense of all is possible. with a knowing we are taken care of.
When the skies turn a certain blue, I am taken back to my days of youth. That world dances before me and a blessed over lighting echoes each memory. It’s a specific blue, it speaks magic, wonder, and a sense of reverence. I have likened it and called it popsicle blue. Willingly I intermingle into its captivating spell.
Nothing to do but laugh and have fun ~ remember! Popsicle blue reminds me this can be true even now. It’s a feeling we can bring into our responsibilities while offering ourselves a ease and flow. Have you ever noticed when you relax, laugh and are light hearted with a eagerness to “play” that new insights, ideas, solutions organically come into your awareness? This attunes us to a universal divine flow that we are opening up to so that we will be guided in our daily walk. We let go of mind jabber. We can uncomplicate ourselves and move away from what we have habitually fallen into that ushers an unnatural state. We can be Popsicle Blue now.
Blessed is the child and the child like ~ the innocent of heart, as they know a natural system of ease and Grace.

⊆A Return To Childhood⊇
Close your eyes, quiet the mind, let everything go for a while….and recollect those tender childhood recalls that bring a smile across your face and in your heart. Reminisce and see what comes up ~ holidays and family gatherings, what were you like ~ what brought you immense joy?, what was your room like? ~ what did play represent for you? ~ what was a day like? Take it all in, cherish the memories that glow in your heart! Hold those feelings close to you! Experience the allure of childhood all over again!
May the wonderment of childhood fill our lives once again!
Create your own poem the enlivens the sights and sounds of your youth! Bring those endless days and cherished memories to life! Then share it. I would love to hear it!
¶Popsicle Blue¶
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
memories recall
freedom days of youth
board games
cup cakes and pizza
a signature fondue
running free
climbing a tree
my world at ease
a cotton candy spell
the light casts a sweet flavor
how Blessed our Creator
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
catching the raindrops
swirly lollypops
Band on the Run
McCartney and Wings on the radio
nothing to owe
tator tot rainbows
summer heat and a wishbone
big bird the puppet show
the boat rows itself
the knower known
for all was shown
neighborhood friends
we gather and play
in the front yard
hide n’ seek
the streets
kick ball
until dusk we stay
play to play
until
Mom calls us away
time to come in
the dinner table is dressed
we eat as a family
thankful and blessed
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
school in the morning
get a good nights rest
Ha!
imagination so fruitful
no need to rest
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
morning sky a sparkling river
God’s hand tossing out glitter
cereal boxes, pop tarts
the way to start
rise to shine
the world is mine
popsicle blue
childhood in rhythm
nothing to do
pages just turn
born again anew
seasons blossom
good times
not forgotten
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
snow cones in Summer
candy canes in Winter
whether swimming or sledding
it was all for all winning
the pets that we had
the house I grew up in
the back deck
a woodsy hot pink
surrounded by tall majestic trees
BBQs, July 4th, a wonderous breeze
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
silence
I am there
the observer
offering a prayer
all I see is infinity
no barriers between you and me
all goes on for miles
no limits
no birthplace, only carefree
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
memories fall
the unexpected magic of it all
flowers in spring
dogwood pink blooms
like a carnival
and a swing
so much room
when the skies
are popsicle blue
no time exists
it is just is
with a chocolate kiss
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
Elvis and sideburns
my Dad did it too
long flowing hair
my Mom had it too
home and youth
comfort and Grace
when all was in place
when the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
walks around the block
when there was no
tick of the clock
Popsicle Blue
you color my heart
a child of innocence
all becomes wide open
no differences
all in synthesis
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
the sound of the ice cream truck
in melody rolling on in
hearing that sound
we would rush
the excitement of it
Good Humor
the prize in my hands
the taste upon my lips
don’t worry
I will remember to brush
whatever it takes to do it again
Oh, that feeling
popsicle blue
the sky reminds me
it could be renewed
popsicle blue
when miracles are visible
everything so mystical
easy
flowing
smooth rowing
giggles, fun, pure, being silly
because we understood
the true meaning of living
a child
no agenda
just breathing
and giving
in a Eden
alive and speaking
When the skies
are popsicle blue
I go Sky High
I am going back
to
popsicle blue
wanna join me too?
popsicle blue
where the heart lives
drenched in youth
