LillyBilly of Arabia

From the vast, stretching desert grasslands of Arabia fragments of a great wisdom have emerged from the soul of a child adept found by accident as she led her playmates through the shifting sands and wild grass lands to a high plateau where she spoke.




Follow me and I shall lead you out of the wilderness to the grasses that grow wild in your heart that spring from the earth and cleanse your spirit. LillyBilly




I smile on this land filled with flowers, birds and all the creatures, it is greater than the things men desire and fight to gain, for surely it is easier for an ant to carry a pound of sugar than a man give up his possessions. LillyBilly




My vision is manifold as the branches of a great tree to embrace all the birds of the sky,
deep as her roots to hold the earth for all creatures and sweet as the wind among her leaves to give us music to dance our love and joy. This covenant we the children of the earth bestow upon our elders to remember from where they came and return, their hand in ours.  LillyBilly




And I say unto you even a soft dog tail grass is worth more than all the riches of gold that you seek for all that you search for lies verily at your feet. LillyBilly




Do you think you know what love is, it is not a thought, it is in your eyes and spreads everywhere, into your belly and out on the grass, it climbs the trees and leaps up to the stars that shine out forever. LillyBilly




I have owned many toys and fought hard to keep them from others. But sitting here in the dried grasses, smelling the fragrance, touching the living flames of nature, I know I only want to posses the silence within me and the freedom to be here. LillyBilly




Sometimes I like to just sit alone and hold a flower, then a little shiver of joy leaps through me that everything is perfect. LillyBilly




Yes I understand, everything is not always rosy, things get complicated. Well, If you throw a stone in water you can’t see through the ripples but what is underneath, only still waters. We are always throwing stones into the perfection because we are to busy to see what is here. LillyBilly




Shall we go back, through the sands to our homes and carry with us these grasses.
Grasses as young and in love as we are. Is there any other grass so green that springs out of this earth and with all the flowers we shall take to our mothers and fathers. LillyBilly

When the Dancer Becomes the Dance

LillyBilly after resting from the Santa Monica fashion shoot still wearing the same full length Dolce&Gabbana gypsy peasant one piece over the shoulder straps splashed with wild strawberry, orange, blue and yellow flowers and embroidered chest band in a moment of inspiration while listening to “singing in the rain” leaps off the couch, her eyes rolled up in ecstasy and twirls into a mesmerizing dance of an exquisite almost Dervish like trance.

I feel little tingly shivers everywhere.

I wish I could spin forever.

It's amazing, I'm not doing it.

Who am I !

Oh my Tinkerbell, the whole world is spinning.

I'm right here.

That music was perfect.

Did you like it !

Watch me dance, this song is very tiny and delicate.

It's called, Peek-A-Boo, I see you.

Count to ten

And look inside.

What do you see.

I see a house.

With dancing people.
