I pondered long and hard for the answer
wondering, wavering of emotions inside
How relative time has been in this journey
this crazy, happy, emotional ride
The voices unheard, yet heard of so clearly
in universal languages for all to hear
The faces unseen, yet seen in tiny glimpses
of those who opened their windows for air
How thoughtful the praise each time I read
How warm my hopeful heart became
How humble it felt from deep within
How grateful my soul will surely remain

Beautiful poem Lauren. The second time I read it I felt a chill take over my body because of how I could relate to some sentiment in it. Nice work!
Thanks so much, Scott! I’m glad you could relate also, to the point of really feeling it..This blogging experience has been a wonderful way of connecting with so many amazing people, including you. š
This is such a beautiful poem, Lauren. I hope you are doing great.
Blessings,
-Naima
Thanks very much, Naima, and all is well in life. I’m just blogging more infrequently than in the past but I appreciate you stopping by and I will visit you this week sometime. I hope life is treating you well, too…Much love and blessings..
I can feel the depth of emotion as you wrote that poem.
Thanks so much, Ian. It’s been awhile since I’ve posted so I hope you’re doing well.

The words delightfully bear the weight of your feelings, Lauren… Truly, we live in a closely connected world, with each one invisibly sheltering the other…best wishes.. Raj.

Doing great Lauren. My dauughter-in-law and granddaughter got back in town today. My son is deployed but after this deployment he will be coming home too. He has accepted a job in this area. Hooray!! I am so excited!
Oh, that’s great news, Michelle and I can feel your excitement with you. Happy hugs to you, my friend!
A warm, thoughtful poem Lauren and so nice to see a post from you again. You’ve been missed. š
Aww, thank you, Geraldine, your comment warmed my heart! I may only post once a month and visit when I can. I’ve been busy with home life and will start school in the fall. So blogging is taking a back seat. How are you? Miss you, too, my friend, but I’ll visit your blog soon…
I forgot to mention, I LOVE your new header! Wow, how beautiful is that. Isn’t spring the best, with everything coming into bloom again. š
Congrats re: heading back to school again, how exciting! I wish you all the best with your studies Lauren.
I’ve been very busy as usual, currently working on promoting my newest cookbook: The Groovy Green Kitchen II: Simply, Super, Supper Soups. I now have 7 KINDLE books published!!! I’m even surprising myself, LOL š
Have a lovely weekend, G
Thanks! Spring is a beautiful season with its splash of colors. I will need lots of “good luck” wishes for my academic adventure. I’m excited and nervous but really ready to start. It’s the anticipation that kills us. š It will all begin in the fall. Congrats on all your books and I’m behind on buying books but I still have your email and will add your new book to my collection soon. I can’t remember if you have my new book, too, Finding a Balance. All the info is on my blog…anyway, have a lovely weekend, too. Today is our son’s 20th birthday! š Love and hugs!
one can feel your heart’s gratitude which seems to flow into the readers thoughts
a Beautiful poem full of the special language only the heart can speak…

Take Care…You Matter…

Aww, thank you so much, Maryrose, for your lovely comment. Blogging is on the back burner but I have missed everyone and will try to stop in occasionally. I hope all is good with you, too. Much love. ā„
This is so beautiful, Lauren! Xx
Thanks, Iris…since I’m not blogging as often, I had to write about the amazing experience it is. I may only be around once a month, so sorry for missing so much on your blog. But I’ll be over to read sometime this weekend. Hugs, my friend, and hope you are well..
It’s okay š I’m doing great ^^ Hope you and your family are fine too! How’s your daughter? Loving hugs! ā„
All is fine here just busy with other things off the computer. š She is fine and thanks for asking. She graduates June 13th with her BA so that is super exciting and we’re so proud of her. Then she has to figure out real life. š I’m glad you’re doing great, too. xo
Good to hear that š ā„

Thanks so much, Sue! I agree, the universal language of Love! We need more of it, desperately! I’m only posting about once a month and trying to visit blogs, too. I miss it and you and many friends but have been busy offline, too. š How are you doing? I love all the May blooms and my hubby surprised me with early Mother’s Day blooms, some hanging flowering plants that I wanted for the house. A Fuchsia and a Lantana and they’re gorgeous. Anyway, have a lovely Mother’s Day and I’ll visit your blog this weekend, too, to catch up a bit. Sending much love and many hugs!
Lauren… I am well.. Lovely to know all is well and Love Fuchsia’s and Lantana both gorgeous .. We are busy too planting, sowing, and learning to relax in between. No worries about catching up.. I know you are always there and just good to know all is ok.. sending you all my love and Big hugs for Mother’s Day.. xxx ā¤ ā¤ ā¤ xxx Sue

Lauren, how completely heartfelt this verse was start to finish. Its rhythm is beautifully orchestrated and the words, your words, as always, so wonderfully inspiring.
Thanks so much, Don, for your beautiful comment. Your words are always encouraging. I’m not blogging as often and hadn’t written in awhile so I thought a poem about blogging would be a good start. š I hope all is well with you!
Comforting and full of hope.
