Free Verse
I had been wanting to create a place to share my painted rocks with others and also offer the opportunity for others to place and share rocks they paint, so after several months of hoping, dreaming, planning and praying it came to fruition in a wonderful way and today it was completed! I am very happy with how it all turned out and feel blessed that it has already been noticed, used, and admired by many in my neighborhood. I am hoping now that it continues to grow and expand!
Oregon’s Evergreens – Arbor Day 2020
Stately they stand
Strong branches holding new life
Sheltered from storms
As wind and rain beat
Steadily upon their mossy boughs
Stately they stand
Green giants waving
Strong branches holding new life
All across our land
Some are chosen
As lumber to keep people
Sheltered from storms

“To exist as a nation, to prosper as a state, and to live as a people, we must have trees.” — President Theodore Roosevelt.
“Other holidays repose upon the past; Arbor Day proposes for the future.”

United We Stand
When clouds of adversity hover
As they someday surely will
Dont give up and run for cover
When clouds of adversity hover
Stand firm and you’ll discover
There’s strength in standing still
When clouds of adversity hover
As they someday surely will

Keep Looking Up
When the morn’s nigh
On His strength rely
Seek Him on High
When day’s done
Oh weary one
Seek the Son
Syllabic Verse
Fly Away from Fear
Fly above the waters of doubt
Don’t let them drown and destroy your dreams
Don’t let your fears hold you down
Soar to the brights skies beyond
Keep looking ahead
Gather your strength
Never give
Fear a
Chance
Nonet
She Laughs
Clothed
In dignity
Filled with inner strength
She faces the future fearless
Set free

Encourage Yourself
Some days when you just can’t win
Fight that feelin’ of just givin’ up
Don’t lose hope before you begin
Some days when you just can’t win
Keep tryin’ and make yourself grin
Pray for God’s strength to stand up
Some days when you just can’t win
Fight that feelin’ of just givin’ up

Mending the Broken Pieces
Discouraged, tearfully
I picked up the broken pieces.
Another trial.
Reaching for the Light of hope
To show me the way
I prayed for healing and strength
To mend broken wings
So I might fly, to try again
‘Til I reach heaven’s reward

“Our heart mends as our inner self—the central or innermost part of our identity—is wrapped around the Light inside of us, rather than around the people who have harmed us. This one small step changes the way we see things”. Suzanne Eller
