For those who are hurting and missing a loved one at this time of year, this one is for YOU!
Veil of Tears by Mary Mikawoz December 25, 2022
As days change into nights And nights into days We see the passage of time Moments slipping by unnoticed
We trudge on in snow-laden streets With cold in our feet, face and hands But not in our hearts…
We remember those who have passed on From one realm to another We rejoice in their memories And of the substantial love they gave us
We can choose to stand in a veil of tears Wiping the currents of moisture from our eyes Or simply initiate a wealth of gratitude For their Past Presence in our lives!
Alphabet Song of Positivity – Photography & Poetry by Mary Mikawoz
I wrote these words to this poem or song of positivity a very long time ago – definitely over a decade ago, circa 2007. They are meaningful and are ones that I hope impacts many people in a positive way. As we enter the New Year tonight and transition into a very New Year of 2022, I hope and pray that everyone takes the initiative to put some or all actions into positive intentions and goals for themselves. I think we could bring the best parts of yesteryear and leave that which no longer serves us behind and reach for a new and brighter future and presence.
I took this photograph of the moon as it was waning back in May 2021 and we are like the lunar cycles, always changing with the seasons of the year.
Here is the poem.

I took this close-up photograph of a rope on a dock. It is used to harness and wrap up boats that have come ashore out of the waters. For safety sake, they are needed to connect and anchor to land.
To me, they represent the human spirit and how we are connected as souls. It represents the cords or attachments we have to other people that bind us together. It is how I see my love for certain people in this world. It is strong and thick as my wrist – woven and connected from my heart to theirs.
Although there may have been adversity and minor tears, it remains strong and healthy. Relationships are manifestations and reflections of how committed we are to making things work through all types of weather and circumstances.
Keep safe and strong through the howling winds and tumultuous waters!

I absolutely love it when I come across eagles and especially Bald Eagles. They are such a joy to watch soaring across the skies and landing on tree tops every so elegantly.
They are absolutely magnificent creatures with such amazing abilities to fly up amongst the drafts of air and wind.
This eagle was well camouflaged in amongst the tree branches but I found its piercing brown eyes checking me out at a distance and me at him. It is no wonder that they are symbols for so many nations and organizations, as they are powerful and kings of their own domain soaring ever so higher into the upper realms of the atmosphere.

I was painting and felt inspired to paint a flame up close and personal. It has many colours and textures of gaseous flames. It is creating heat and it rises up higher and higher into the atmosphere.
It reminds me of “My Undying Love For You.” It is all about emotion that joins us all together in one glorious moment in time. It is about love that binds the world together and, in fact, the Universe.
In all sincerity, I send out my love to you now and wish you the best that life has to offer. May you enjoy the flames of love in your life!

Pelicano
I took the original photograph of the Pelicano and then created an artwork from it. I love the pelicans that I see on Lake Winnipeg and water areas. My husband and I have always affectionately called these birds, Pelicanos, not realizing that that is the Spanish word for them.
According to the What’s Your Sign website, “Pelicans are symbols of love, sacrifice and motherhood. This has to do with legends about pelicans giving their own blood and life in order to save their offspring. Pelicans remind us how self-sacrifice is often required in order to protect who and what we love.”

In Clover
I took this photograph in our yard. It is incredible how such small, beautiful plants and flowers can add so much to green grass.
I learned today that the expression “In Clover” means prosperity and living well. It means financial abundance and having good fortune. I wish this for people around the world as we are all one and what affects one, affects us all.
