Reality
The backwoods of Carolina
Looking out the frame
Of dew and green
Knowing life is sweet
Because of another’s sacrifice
And yet my mind
Woke up in Positano
Dreaming of limoncello
And ocean breezes
Wherever I am
La Dolce Vita reigns
Because God is within me
And I’m surrounded
By friends like you
'God is within me' - I also believe there's in everyone a spark of God, and that gives us confidence and safety.

ReplyDeleteDearest Regine,
ReplyDeleteYay, FINALLY I managed to have your blog renew on my sideline! Saw that Paula Alexandra had your 4 hours ago post on her sideline. So I deleted it from my sideline; where it always remained at the very bottom... And put it in again. Now it said: FEED DETECTED and that's what I selected. SO HAPPY!!!
Yes, we all ought to have God within us as that is life's BEST GPS system for leading us home.
Big hugs,
Mariette
Proud to be one of your friends.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day, Regine. ♥
