Memories, faded, in black and white

A toddler explores, stars, in the light

Against the guardrail, inquisitive wonder

That no adult should ever plunder

Poking and pushing, to find the entrance

Standing on tiptoes, he takes his chances

Behind the tarpaulin, lies adventure

Let him be, don’t let there be censure

His imagination, must fly in the breeze

Past the circus clowns, and forest trees

And as I watch, and hope that I can see

Deep inside, I know, a piece of him, is me

Now dressed in uniform, on his arm is his lady

I am thankful for photos, of my blue jean baby

I’ve traveled here,
to sit, ponder
Basking in the glory
of nature
Feeling the warmth
of the sun
Soaking in the sounds
of water falling

(The rush of silence is awakening)

Freeing me, to find
my inner peace
These things,
I have somehow
Taken for granted,
Thinking they,
would always
be here for me

(Bestowed upon us from Heaven above)

And while the leaves
of the trees, provide
with their shade,
I shall always
turn my face
toward the light

(In thankful prayer for His many blessings)

When one shows appreciation, they have the right attitude

Then others will welcome them, with heartfelt gratitude

But should one only choose to be, the one more combative

Then we need to go one step further, and learn to forgive

 

Shout out to my girl, Annette and her Attitude of Gratitude posts!!   ❤

Sunlight wakes a sleepless mind

And still I long to dream, I find

Raindrops lingering, barren trees

Branches swaying, a subtle breeze

Clouds, at last, have gone away

A Peaceful morning, blessed day

For I have opened my tired eyes

Thankful, once again, to rise

 

Have a Blessed Sunday  ❤

Family traditions, we must always carry on

Gathered together, at the table, we pray

For the bountiful life we are so thankful for

Not just on Thanksgiving, but every day
