¶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 where wonder was in the forefront of almost 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 into 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⇓
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? We are actually attuning to a universal divine flow that we are opening up to so we will be guided as 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. Blessed is the child and the child like ~ and the innocent of heart, as they know a natural system of ease and Grace.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
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 the heart. Reminisce and see what comes up ~ holidays and family gatherings, who were you and 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 your heart! Experience the allure of childhood all over again!
May the wonderment of childhood fill our lives once again!

When the skies
are popsicle blue
memories recall
freedom days of youth
board games
cup cakes and pizza
a signature fondue
running free
in the yard
hide n’ seek
the streets
kick ball
neighborhood friends
we gather and play
until dusk
we stay
until
Mom calls us away
time to come in
the dinner table is dressed
we eat as a family
thankful and blessed
school in the morning
get a good nights rest
Ha!
sneak around a little
just a little test
imagination so fruitful
no need to rest
cereal box, 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
snow cones in Summer
candy canes in Winter
whether swimming or sledding
it was all for the winning
the pets that we had
the house I grew up in
the back patio
BBQs, July 4th, a wonderous breeze
tall majestic trees
silence
I am there
the observer
offers a prayer
memories fall
like the change of leaves
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
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 take
walks around the block
when there was no
tick of the clock
Popsicle Blue
you are my heart
a child of innocence
all was wide open
no differences
all was in synthesis
the sound of the ice cream truck
rolling on in
meant everything
we would rush
Good Humor
don’t worry
I will remember to brush
Oh that feeling
popsicle blue
the sky reminds me
it could be renewed
popsicle blue
when all is magical
easy
flowing
smooth rowing
giggles and laughs
because we understood
the true meaning of living
a child
no agenda
just breathing
and giving
in a Eden
alive and speaking
I am going back
to
popsicle blue
wanna join me too?
popsicle blue
where the heart lives
drenched in youth
