Friends like you

 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

  1. 'God is within me' - I also believe there's in everyone a spark of God, and that gives us confidence and safety.

  3. Dearest Regine,
    Yay, 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
