Favored month of mine,
You arrived yesterday In a burst of sunshine.
Bringing sun to replace the shade,
Such an entrance you made!
The sight of you warmed my heart.
I can’t wait for our visit to start.

It’s late and I am seeking sleep,
Yet all that I can find,
Are “what ifs”, “whys” and questions,
Deep within my mind.
“If only” is my companion,
As I search for needed sleep.
Rest I cannot find,
As the days troubles I do keep.
Worries weigh upon my heart,
And chase the peace away,
Until I turn to God,
Give it all to Him, and pray.

I’ve got a poem in my pocket,
A verse in my heart.
A vision in my mind,
As this new day I start.
I want to share them all with you,
As I go about my day.
Perhaps what I offer you,
Will encourage you in some way.
I hope my “Pocket Poem” will bless,
For it’s a verse from my heart,
It’s purpose is to bring happiness,
That’s my vision to impart.
So should we chance to meet today,
I hope you will stop for a time,
And let me share my thoughts with you,
from a pocket full of rhyme.

Written in celebration of “Pocket Poem Day”
A day filled with triumph,achievement, and victory,
was turned into chaos and misery
for many runners and their family.
What a senseless tragedy.
My heart goes out to those who were at the Boston Marathon today.
