Father and son
One half the age
Of the other
Laugh like six year olds
Hiding secrets
From their mother

Two men
Sharing life
So much more like brothers
A bond everlasting
Through thick and thin
A friendship like no other

 

The two men pictured above are my husband and my son.  At times I wish I could give them a time out but they make me laugh too hard!!  Two amazing men I am very lucky to have in my life.

Let me breathe freely
With the flowers in the field
Inhaling all the splendor
My soul can now be healed

Graced in God’s wonder
Beautiful colors blend
Touched by a gently blowing breeze
My thoughts can now transcend

And carry me to places
Where I never thought I’d go
Beyond the beauty of nature’s ballet
Dancing to and fro

Misty night shivers

As the cold splashes its face

With tiny droplets

Flying across the air

Never falling, only covering

Nourishing

The unborn petals

Awaiting the warmth of day

Shining in the Western Sky
The Star of Beauty ever Bright
Illuminating Darkness
Venus, on this Cloudless Night

Sharing in her Splendor
Huddled high in Evening Pitch
Seven Sisters gather near
To Captivate, Bewitch

Celestial, Alluring
Beguiling is their Sight
High in the Heavens up Above
Divine in Everlasting Light

 

For all the stargazers:  Look in the Western sky and you’ll find Venus and to the right of her, the Pleiades cluster, also known as the Seven Sisters.  Enjoy the nights with these beautiful lights.

Mirrored places reflecting light
Translucent, ever gleaming
Beauty cast in shades of wonder
Rays of sunshine ever streaming

Azure skies embrace the splendor
Tinting gentle waters blue
Cherry blossoms exhale softly
As the world awakens new

Colors so rich in elegant tones
Iridescent upon emerald grass
Transforming the artistry of the day
Mother Nature paints on glass
