Good morning!

When morning gilds the skies… 🎶

Alone together

After the sun has set, 

And cars in the overlook drive away, 

There’s always a moment, however brief, 

When that silver lining at the base of the clouds 

Glows with a rosy blush, 

As if at last we are alone together, 

The sky and I.

Autumnal bliss

Afloat in a sea of autumnal bliss...

Patience

Some days, you really feel

Like you’re going somewhere, 

While other days, it’s hard not to feel 

That the world is passing you by. 

The trick is not to get caught up in either sensation; 

To rejoice in the blessings, 

Both when life speeds up 

And whenever it seems to have slowed to a crawl.

Heading for new possibilities

The path ahead may be lined with thorns, 

But I trust it will bring us 

To a place of grace, a greener land,

 Blessed with new possibilities.

Peaceable kingdom

May we all find a way to co-exist; 

To forgive, to respect, to trust and enjoy 

Our fellow creatures and bring about 

A true Peaceable Kingdom.

The invitation

The invitation’s always there: 

To step away from a busy day, 

To sit at the edge of the sun-dappled lawn 

 And watch the waves roll in 

To refresh the thirsty beach below; 

To look beyond immediacy 

To the islands in the distance, and dream…
