Quote of the Day
"Nothing in
the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent."
- Calvin Coolidge

Dawn Dust
Comes on quieter
Than silence
Peers through windows
And doors
Fills room with
Slow momentum
Light slowly creeps
Filling space
Soon movement
Then dance
Inspiration, love
Opportunity
We become flowers
Full-blown trumpets
Sun-soaked bright leaves
Yearning for creativity
As dawn dust
Opens up a new day
