Many of us have cause to thank Jools for her support over the years, myself in particular.  This is just a small way of saying 'thanks'.

For Jools, Bringer of Gifts

When I close my eyes
The Vortex People are there
Milling around and around
Gathering in their Polarities 
in their different nationalities 
Coming together as One
Black Hole

PROOF OF LIFE
Your heart beats
the rhythm of
your Conscious Self
Your blood pulses
the journey of
your physical body
Spirit pervades
Spirit is the fuel
Together it is
Proof of Life 
Which we begin
with a cry
and leave 
with a sigh
But Love
Oh Love
Love is the Essence
Love is the Rhythm 
Love is the Pulse
Love is the Fuel
and it has nothing 
nothing to prove.....


Proof of Life


Dust & Glory

It's a temporary thing
This Living Fling
Here today and
Gone tomorrow
We write our Story
Perform for Glory
Until we Rust and 
return to Dust
An Ephemeral Mote
In the Cosmos' I
￼



Dust & Glory

If you want to ride
That perfect wave
Knowing your Balance
Knowing your Power
Don't be afraid
To crash and burn....
Love is a parachute 
Step out into the Darkness
Without a hand to hold
Drift in a downwards spiral
Towards terrors untold
Land on the Earth
Both feet on the ground
Your beating heart
The only sound
Notice the waterfall
As it cascades down
Walk into the water
And know you won't drown
This baptism of Fear
This Surrender of Self
Will carry you through
To the Valley of Light
Where all that you are
And all that you can be
Are One and the Same
And Know that after all the pain
This Initiation will set you free, again....🙏❤

Love is a Parachute

I bought Youth a passport
and invited it to stay
We were going to have such fun
Carousing the night away
But Time had another plan
Too cruel to anticipate
It hijacked the opportunity
And offered Age as my Fate......

And Spontaneity is slack
And Hope is waning
The Day is almost done
So little time left for Fun
Memory is my Companion
As I weave this map of Life
We carouse this Dance together
Spinning towards the end of Strife.....

Tempus Fugit (it’s legit.!)

I am not a musician but music plays a very important role in my creative life! I am an artist/designer and music is my companion and my muse in the long hours I spend working in my studio! 
I am immensely impressed and grateful for all the talented and inspiring musicians whose work graces this Cloud, and I will always re-post sounds that I love (and will listen to again) - knowing that others will enjoy them!
I feel slightly embarrassed and quite humbled when I receive such graceful messages of thanks from artists whose work I have re-posted - after-all, I am the one who is so inspired by the discovery of your brilliant music!!!
So thank YOU!!!
Jools :)
P.S. If you want to see where the music takes me there is a link to my Portfolio site on Behance below!!! 
NEW!! - Thanks for all the great feed-back on my work! I shall be re-launching with a website (shop & archive) ‘KULT-JE’ in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, examples of past and current work are featured on my Instagram (@joolselphick)
Since my heart op in Jan2021, I have had to deal with taking quite a lot of meds which have interrupted my design work - that and moving to Germany in 2020 - and back in 2021 (due to Covid my business plans stalled!) - SO, slowly getting it together…. hang tight!😊

I have an archive of my work to date on Instagram - @joolselphick
