🌾 Today’s Poem ~ you being in love

by

you being in love

e. e. cummings

you being in love
will tell who softly asks in love,
am i separated from your body smile brain hands merely
to become the jumping puppets of a dream? oh i mean:
entirely having in my careful how
careful arms created this at length
inexcusable, this inexplicable pleasure-you go from several
persons: believe me that strangers arrive
when i have kissed you into a memory
slowly, oh seriously
-that since and if you disappear
solemnly
myselves
ask “life, the question how do i drink dream smile
and how do i prefer this face to another and
why do i weep eat sleep-what does the whole intend”
they wonder. oh and they cry “to be, being, that i am alive
this absurd fraction in its lowest terms
with everything cancelled
but shadows
-what does it all come down to? love? Love
if you like and i like,for the reason that i
hate people and lean out of this window is love,love
and the reason that i laugh and breathe is oh love and the reason
that i do not fall into this street is love.”

✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Do You Want the Muse to Visit You?

by

“If you want to be a writer, you have to write every day. The consistency, the monotony, the certainty, all vagaries and passions are covered by this daily reoccurrence. You don’t go to a well once but daily. You don’t skip a child’s breakfast or forget to wake up in the morning. Sleep comes to you each day, and so does the muse.” ~ Walter Mosley

🌾 Today’s Poem ~ Perhaps Not to be is to be Without Your Being

by

Perhaps Not to be is to be Without Your Being

Pablo Neruda

Perhaps not to be is to be without your being,
without your going, that cuts noon light
like a blue flower, without your passing
later through fog and stones,
without the torch you lift in your hand
that others may not see as golden,
that perhaps no one believed blossomed
the glowing origin of the rose,
without, in the end, your being, your coming
suddenly, inspiringly, to know my life,
blaze of the rose-tree, wheat of the breeze:
and it follows that I am, because you are:
it follows from ‘you are’, that I am, and we:
and, because of love, you will, I will,
We will, come to be.

🍎 Today’s Health Tip ~ 7 Vegan-Friend Foods Boosting Testosterone Levels

by

Testosterone Friendly Vegan Foods

      1. Broccoli – Broccoli contains food compounds that help reduce estrogen levels.
      2. Pumpkin seeds – These little guys are packed with zinc, so they keep the sex organs healthy and help to promote a healthy metabolism. They also contain the amino acid tryptophan, which helps the body produce more serotonin (which balances your hormone levels).
      3. Avocados – Avocados have healthy fats and high levels of vitamin B6, which helps improve test production and also helps reduce cortisol (the stress hormone).
      4. Garlic – Garlic inhibits cortisol, a hormone that actually breaks down muscle tissue. Garlic also enhances testosterone levels.
      5. Nuts – Almonds and walnuts are packed with amino acids such as arginine, which helps improve blood flow. They are also high in monounsaturated fats, which helps maximize testosterone levels.
      6. Bananas – Bananas contain B vitamins, bromelain enzyme, and potassium, all of which help boost your T levels.
      7. Soy – A common misconception is that eating too much soy can lead to lower testosterone levels. But a meta analysis conducted by Jill Hamilton-Reeves. Ph.D. and Mark Messina, Ph.D. concluded that “neither soy foods nor isoflavone supplements alter measures of bioavailable T concentrations in men.”
