If I had spent more time
Wishing on shooting stars
Instead of missing them,
Lost deep in your pale blue eyes,
Maybe those blue eyes
Would still be mine to get lost in.
But maybe ours was simply a love
Meant for stargazing on cloudy nights
Because we cared more about being together
Than seeing the stars.
Maybe all the wishes in the world
Would not have made us right for each other.
I used to think I saw my whole universe
In your shining blue eyes,
But without you I have come to see
That I can shine just as brightly on my own.

Inspirational Illustrations Pay Homage to the Beauty of Nature by Katie Daisy
Oregon-based illustrator Katie Daisy admits to being raised by “birds and warm breezes” in a small town, “where she was brought up among the other wildflowers with roots planted deeply in the natural world.” Deeply impassioned by nature, Daisy’s aim is to interpret the beauty of Mother Earth she has engraved deeply in her velvet bones.
She hopes to convey the message of our surroundings through her adventurous and vibrant illustrations. Composed by watercolor, acrylic, photoshop, the watercolor creations contain messages of inspiration, love of beauty, poetry and nature expressed by the most influential minds in literature, art and humanity.
Adorned with floral patterns, constellations, landscape sceneries, and plants, Daisy’s work is a wildly romantic series, which urges everyone to dream. The small literary excerpts communicate the simple joys of life and the magic found in nature. You can find her entire collection in her Etsy shop.
“I have professors at Columbia who view me as a terrorist for fighting in Iraq. But I believe that America is an example to be emulated, and I went over there to provide those people with basic human freedoms. But when you get over there you realize that you’re fighting kids. Everyone was kids. You see it when they’re dead. These weren’t the guys who were flying into towers. These were kids who grew up poor, stepped into the wrong madrasa, and were manipulated by people with a shit load of money into executing somebody else’s worldview. None of them came out of the womb hating. None of them came out of the womb thinking anything else but holy shit this is a bright beautiful world.”
