"You were only waiting for this moment to arise...."

We all know I am a lover of music and that I quite often put them in my posts to either add to the mood, or to simply put words to my feelings; since sometimes I can get a bit jumbled.  On occasion a song will implant itself in my brain and won't go away, which happened yesterday when I was setting up the patio at my home with these wonderful new goodies from unKindness.  I finished the photo and went to write and I couldn't get what I considered an inappropriate song out of my head, so I put it away hoping I would wake with a new perspective or at least a new song!  No such luck, but after the evening I had, I decided the song was VERY appropriate in regards to me!  Eight years ago the wonderful man in my life and I started this journey, though we drifted apart for a time, life led us back to each other and though very familiar, it is all new and fresh, which is making it quite exciting, to be honest.  As I sat waiting for him last night on this bench, that melody continued to dance it's way through my mind, and I realized I had been waiting for this very "moment to arise, to spread my wings to fly"!

Blackbird

The Beatles

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.
Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

The NightingGale Bench and Flower Power Pillows are exclusively available at the current round of The Fantasy Collective which opened yesterday at noon!  The pillows can be modified, as I have done in the picture, meaning you can place them where ever you like to create your own special outdoor seating area.  The bench is incredibly well detailed with a gorgeous Nightingale adorning the back, perfect for any outdoor setting, or a wonderful rustic addition inside as well, so do yourself a favor and head on over to the event today!  By the way, if you have been looking for the perfect stone patio for your home or photo sim, then head over to Trompe Loeil and check out the Dardon Stone Fireplace and Patio Kit.  It comes with the walls, which can be modified, a fountain, fireplace, nook, end caps and the stone floor, all at an amazing price!  You can create any size of terrace needed or wanted with these pieces and I am absolutely thrilled with my little hideaway, as I am sure you will be with yours!  Welcome to Spring everyone, it's that time of the year to head outdoors and create new and amazing outdoor spaces!
