The Gift…

The sun

rose today

a gift

I awoke

this day

a gift

I watched

the sunrise

a gift

I listened

to the

bluebirds

sing

a gift

I am

surrounded

by love

from the

two legged

and four

a gift

I hold

joy, love

and peace

in my

heart

a gift

another day

to read

to write

to walk

to laugh

I am

thankful

for

the greatest

gift…

Autumn~

The wheel

is turning

the clock

is ticking

the light

is changing

The dark

side of

the moon~

temperatures

dropping

animals

preparing

leaves falling

A time

to slow

a time

to stew

a time

to reflect

and rest

Welcome

sweet

Autumn…

Another Year~

Another year

around the sun

another year

to live

and love

another year

to learn

and grow

another year

to laugh

and heal

another year

some tears

may fall

another year

of standing

tall.

May I live

to see

another year

and never

forget that

another year

is the

greatest gift

of all…

The Blurring~

Days roll by

blurring

Dinners roll by

blurring

Donuts roll by

blurring

Time

blurs

Eyes

blur

Memories

blurred

Edges

are

blurred.

perhaps,

that’s

a good

thing.

to live

a focused

life

We must

embrace

the

blurs…
