Happy

 Rain

Where

I learn to retain

The heart

Soul and mind

To align 

To where harmony sings

And the world

Utters its pure delight 

North Carolina

 The window of the soul

Is the mountain peaks 

The ocean waves

The skunks

The birds

Babies

And every joy

That comes

My way

Like an aperol spritz

Window

 Have the spirit of a child

The imagination

The wonder

That’s on my heart today

I’m having to let go

Of everything

I once held dear

Look out the window

Put down the phone

Grateful for no cell service

In remote parts

Tell me about your gratitude

Faith

 In my deep exhales, as I erase the fears creeping up, I remember the promise. The promise that says every day I am here. I don’t make myself known. I’m in the shadows. I’m watching and waiting to see when and where I fit. I fill your cup as needed. I’m on the unsteady, choppy waters.  I’m in the waiting room. I’m in the food you eat, the water you drink. I’m in the trips you take and the decisions you make. 

In the world

I May be dismayed

But with You

At the helm

I’m restored

For with faith

Earth bows

Down to its Maker

Happy 4th

 Enjoy the day

In such a way

That a smile

Is a mile wide

And joy radiates

Upward and forevermore

Tomatoes

 Cuddles on the couch

With the pooch 

As I sip my 

Delicious brew

And a tomato

Sandwich awaits

Me later
