A Dreamy Teacher

 

I wish I had a big portable board. If I had one, I wouldn't have to write the same subject  matter over and over again. I would write only once and carry it everywhere I teach, or maybe I could have my own classerom

where I work instead. Both ideias would be helpful. I am going to retire soon. I have been a teacher for 27 years and I am grateful I could

somehow prepare young people for life, work, and active citizenship. I am honoured.

Moments

           Your eyes are like heavy rain

           falling from pregnant clouds.

           With one glance, you washed away

           the poems I chalked on the ground

           and drowned all my beliefs.

           Now, I only scribble your name

           and believe in your truth.

           I know nothing but you.

Hello Autumn!

Hello My Lovelies!

It's been a while since I took part in Art Journal Journey. It is a pleasure to come back and make some art greeting Autumn. Here we are heading into Spring. It is a lovely season too.

Annabel Lee

 

And this was the reason that, long ago,

   In this kingdom by the sea,

A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling

   My beautiful Annabel Lee;

So that her highborn kinsmen came

   And bore her away from me,

To shut her up in a sepulchre

   In this kingdom by the sea.

and we are as bold as ever.

We may be a few but we are alive and kicking.

You are the main character

The same way that you are the main character of your story, 

you are only a secondary character in everybody else's story."

Hello My Lovelies!

It's been awhile since a took part in a challenge. My work keeps swallowing me

and I find no time to spend doing what I truly love. I always come and go. It doesn't mean art has been away from my life although I haven't posted what I have created here.

I miss you all and I learnt a lot with you, girls.

Love always,

Karla

I am thankful for...

Gratitude is Gratidão in my language. It is such a beautiful word! 

My mother was 20 years old when that photo was taken. It was her wedding day. 

She was just a girl full of dreams and love.

I am grateful for my mother. 

She gave meaning to my life.

She gave me wings and taught me how to fly. 

She believed in me when I myself didn"t. 

My mother will always be my everything.

I miss you mum.

Hugs, 

Karla

Time

If you're lost, you can look, and you will find me

Time after time

If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting

Time after time
