I grew up in a black and white world
But then I found color, beautiful
Color of all kinds, hues, and shades,
And my world has never been
The same since, for
Now I see light prisms
Everywhere,
And find joy
And wonder
Daily.

Pencil vs Poodle
Were you a Pencil or a Poodle
Skirt fan, back in the days of rockn’roll?
Dancing slow with The Diamonds
Strolling in a pencil skirt,
Or swing’n the poodle skirt
Jitterbugging with
Bill Haley in your
Saddle shoes,
When teens
Danced.

A List Of Things
Things
Things lost
Things broken
Things we’ve found
Things of beauty
Things chosen in haste
Things we’ll treasure forever
Things we let go to slip away
Things broken by their use or misuse
Things left behind, forgotten, unwanted
Things dreamed about yet never received
Things dreamed about that we’ve achieved
Things we never wanted but got
Things that rose up like weeds
Things we kept to appease others
Things we threw away
Things we’ve loved
Things we miss
Things lost

The Greatest Gift
God
So loved
Everyone
Yes, everyone
In the whole world
That He gave us a gift
The most precious gift He could
He gave us all His Only Son
Who died to save us all from our sins
And bring us all into eternal life
Etheree
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. 1 John 5:13
Callous Critic
Who are you that sits on a self made throne,
That’s padded with a pillow of pride,
Wearing a robe of perfection?
Your know-it-all attitude
And hastily pointing fingers,
Fill the air with dread,
As you speak words
That tear down
Someone’s
Dream.

My Happy Place
Searching for that happy medium
Where time and creativity meet
To reside on peaceful plain.
Interruptions not allowed.
Rabbit trails off limits.
A place where thoughts
Become actions,
Creating art
All can
See.

On a City Sidewalk
God gave me an chance to pray for you
Today. A stranger whom I now know as
Lori. Twas a chance meeting.
God put me there in front of
You sitting in the cold,
Eyes filled with tears,
Homeless yet
Knew Jesus
And He
You
Etheree
God Bless You Lori. “He is the “God Who Sees You” and He will help you.
Tis’ the Season
Lights
Twinkling
Reflecting
Everywhere
Smiles are shared
With strangers on the street
Stores are filled with
Shoppers looking for once a year treats
To share with others generously
There’s just something about Christmas

Perplexity
Just
Do not
Understand it!
I am a helper,
I love to help,
But why doesn’t everyone?
Why are some selfish,
Unwilling to give a helping hand?
I just don’t understand it at all!
They are missing out on so very much.
Etheree
Fragile
Boxes
All shapes
And all sizes
Like people
They hold things inside
Secrets, treasures, dreams
Or maybe unwanted things like
Bitterness, unforgiveness
Handle all boxes with care because
They can be damaged inside and out
