Looking for the perfect gift?
Patience is needed.
So, put on your biggest smile,
And just go with the slow flow

Race for Christmas
Christmas Countdown’s here
Run, Run, as fast as you can
Don’t let time win
Only seven days now left
The race is officially on

The Wise Rise Not Rest
Tides rise and fall
Opportunities do too
Ocean never rests
Dont let opportunies fall
The wise rise not rest

Reluctantly,
Tonight with sadness,
I shall say “Goodbye November.”
Month of gratitude,
That causes us to reflect
Upon our blessings,
And give thanks for our life.
No other month does this.
November, I shall miss you,
In December’s hectic days.

Time Less
Unfinished projects abound.
Each day showing me they’re around,
They shift and fall and fret,
Hoping my attention to get.
Some buried beneath a paper stack,
Just lie in wait for what they lack.
Others in plain site collect
Dust, as each day them I neglect.
Sadly they all sit, waiting for the day,
For me to have time to bring life their way.

Time of Thanks
Today’s a special time
To stop and reflect on life
Thankful for family
And friends, health, and provison
God has blessed me with much

Ephemeral Joy
In the days of my youth
When time was of no essence
No thoughts for the morrow
Entered my lofty world
As I grew vibrantly
In the fresh breezes of life
Enjoying the sun’s kiss
Until touched by Autumn’s breath
I felt the brevity of life

Another Change
Tonight
Another change
Time falls back an hour
Tomorrow will seem different

Life’s Book
Never taking time.
Too busy to smell the roses.
Ignoring the clock,
We leaf thru our life’s book,
Reaching the end too soon. We weep

Multitasking
Living with Deadlines
A Stressed, stretched schedule
Learning to juggle
