There is no advance notice for inspiration. It comes within a moment’s time without notification, without hesitation. It comes from near, it comes from afar: As close as one’s backyard, as faraway as across oceans and continents. catnipoflife is blessed with many wonderful followers across many divides, each of whom presents his or her perspectives on life, experiences of life, joys, sorrows and personal reflections.
Today while visiting press-inside, I was inspired by the video, Danube Delta, Romania: a unique region in Europe – where one still may find, at least in certain places, untouched wild nature, unaltered by civilization. Not only did it provide so much beauty of the country but it was set to background music by Enya. By truly listening to the lyrics of Enya’s music, you will understand the catnip of life!
Enjoy and marvel in the wonders of nature within a world of endless possibilities!
so much beauty
so much beauty
outside as well as within
waiting to be explored
inviting you to begin
looking and listening
reaching for touch
laughing, singing
enjoying so much
away from the noise
the hustle, the stress
knowing inside and out
when moments need rest
abiding in the heart
deepening in the soul
waiting for the time
to unleash and behold

Nice one!
Beautiful scenery, beautiful poem-thanks for sharing it with us.
Now that was a great compilation of superb photography with excellent music by Enya. I own every record she has ever recorded and never tire of her work. Good find.
🙂 Enya is my absolute favorite! So glad you enjoyed! Off to see what you have today!
Wonders, all! Thanks.
That was so relaxing, I almost fell asleep listening to the music and watching the wonderful scenery. I’d never get any work done if I had that sort of scenery in front of me every day. Thanks Sharla for a wonderful start to my Monday 🙂
This video sent tranquility and calmness throughout my body. Great poem and very inspirational post!
What a treat… worth watching just to hear Anya, but the combination of music, water, birds was wonderful – thank you, inspired friend
I have to say I enjoyed this so much …not just beautiful but pullingat my heart strings as my grandparents came to America from Romania oh so many years ago and it is my desire to go there one day. thank you for sharing<3 ((xx))
That is so awesome! Small world and we never know how and when we are going to connect! 🙂

I love this poems and in combination with the picture and scenery it’s “dreamlike”… just beautiful!
The poem actually was inspired by the video. I really didn’t spend much time on it because I wanted to get the video up pronto! Thank you for the compliment!
