Strawberry

A long time ago in a dream I was walking on plush green foliage and brushed my hand over the plushness to see one strawberry.  There is a story in the Toa of Daily Life that says the present IS what it IS all about.  The strawberry is symbolic of the present in the story. Walking, hiking as a child I used to find and eat wild  strawberries.  Red is my favorite color.  It makes me feel full...it has alot of desire.  Magenta is a color that helps me stay present in the moment...in the moment eating a strawberry.  In the moment...listening to the sound of birds and animals and in the moment with music.  In the moment with my children. Sometimes I have a hard time staying present. I space out alot and sometimes I forget where I put things...in the moment.  So I want to stay in the moment with the moment and find a peaceful flow to stay with the moments.  Moments...and memory. I seem to remember fragments of my life.  This back and forth...most of the time...is poetry.  Other times the moment can be...the moment...
