Among the tall trees
Upon the Spring breeze
In the branches of the pine
A voice resounds
With soft cooing sounds
Such a melody divine

Monday Meeting
I met two cheery friends along the way
Who had something important to say
Daffy and Dil quite excitedly announced
“Springtime officially begins today!”

Making A Difference
Just one among many

In a Lonely Place?
Looking for a helping hand?
Drifted upon sinking sand?
God does see that place you’re in,
He’ll strenghten you so you can stand.
Just reach out, take His hand,
He’ll lead you from sinking sand,
To a place far from chagrin,
Life with Him can be grand!
So if life’s not all you planned,
Dead like driftwood on sand,
Look up, invite God in,
And let Him be your helping hand.

Breastplate of Faith
Patrick is Ireland’s patron saint
Though a true Irishman he ain’t
A simple sheep herder was he
A slave he was til age twenty
Then he met God and caused the devil to faint
Limerick
“The Breastplate,” Patrick’s poem of faith and trust in God
Determination
Stand firm
In the Present.
The Past laps at your heels,
Dont let it creep in and spoil the
Future.

Mr. Bubs
Curious Mr. Bubs
His life is full of flubs
He’s clumsy as can be
It’s his idiosyncrasy

Letter by Letter
One letter in front of another
One foot in front of another
Words are like walking
Carefully chosen
They move us forward
Or hold us back
Like feet
Often

Calm Word
A calm word went forth
Silently soothing a soul
Like a gentle breeze
Senryu
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver. Proverbs 25:11

A dessert
Lover should
Try this!
Honestly good!
You take a bowl of Greek Yogurt,
Sprinkle some Sunflower Seeds on top,
Next a few Nibs of Cacao,
A Banana sliced and joined with some,
Cashews and Hemp Hearts and a
Kiss of Maple Syrup!
