listen-to-the-whispers-of-the-heart-for-you
Awakening with the new day’s dawn

Breathlessly unfolding in the morning light

She softly whispers to your heart

A secret only she can tenderly reveal

Update:  While it was easy to blame WP, it wasn’t them at all.  turns out my email server (Yahoo) decided to label the donotreply email from WP as spam.  I added it to my contacts and all is well in WP land 🙂

Hi Everyone,

 

For some reason, WordPress has decided to stop sending notifications of comments and new followers, to my email.  It’s like playing a guessing game when I log into my account.  I don’t know if anyone else is having this issue, too.  I’ve tried tweeting about it, but to no avail.  So, I apologize if it takes me a bit to respond and to follow.  I love reading posts and finding out about new followers (I always follow back), so I’m hoping this mess is cleaned up quickly.  I haven’t changed any settings, so not sure why this happened.

I don’t understand, when you argue and say

A memorial for the fallen, should not be displayed

A field of white crosses, eternal rest for the brave

A symbol of thanks, our flag on their grave

For ones who have fought, for your freedoms, your rights

Protecting your country, unafraid of the fight

Valor and courage stood tall, hand in hand

Remember, they gave you their all, they were proud Americans!

 

Always give thanks to the brave men and women who have given their lives so you can remain free.  ~Memorial Day 2016~

Let your imagination run wild

Romp in a glistening tide, feel

The cool waters splash, as you

Run along the shores, under

The shining sun, feeling the

Warmth caressing your face.

Til at last, in the setting of the light,

When night sweetly kisses

The day goodbye

You can continue to dream………

The Cleansing of the Rain

I see the heaven’s darken

Hear the mighty thunder call

Beckoning me to come outside

To feel the waters fall

I watch as the sky is parted

And the light comes back again

Chasing away the blackened night

With the cleansing of the rain
