On The Wings Of Peace

My friend, Sue, shared this post from Teri in Ireland, and hopefully many are spreading the ripples of peace. This is my turn and may you find it in your heart to do the same. With love and blessings, Lauren ♥

During the 1980’s, Mike Bryant created a Peace card. He hoped that by sending it to friends and relatives, they would sign it and re-post, and a chain of Peace would spread around the world. I have to admit that I never got around to sending on the card. I wish I had, but as Mother Earth heaves with sadness, and her people are drowning in sorrow and grief, I offer this Peace chain, to join with other Peace chains along the way. With today’s technology words travel further and faster. Taking up the sword is not the answer. Peace is the answer.

Kindness

On May 22, 2013May 22, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Friendship, Inspirational, Life, Love32 Comments

Does your heart try
to please every soul
turn frowns upside down
dry tears and console

Do your eyes see the good
in everything around
in every person you pass
on the streets in your town

If the answer is yes
then you’re quite the friend
you have an abundance of love
to share again and again

Yet, you’re also at risk
to having your heart broken
because not all will agree
with your words spoken

So you do your best
for the common good
and hope all your loving actions
are truly understood

I was reminiscing of an old friend
from many years ago…
Card design and yellow rose by my wonderful friend,
Angela at pathwayofpoetry.com.

Does this evoke memories of
someone special
from your past? ♥

Life’s Precious Gems (A Nonet)

On March 28, 2013March 30, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Friendship, Nonet40 Comments

I’ve recently learned a new form of poetry, called a Nonet,
which consists of nine lines.
The first line has nine syllables, the second line eight syllables,
the third line seven syllables, etc… until line nine finishes with one syllable.

I’ll keep you forever and always

staying true to daily actions

and to every word I say,

for you are a golden

jewel in my life

and in my heart

I love you

dearly,

Friend

(This Nonet is for practice)

Friend Acrostic ♥

For who wants to be alone?
Reveling in life’s joy or weeping
In between those moments; I’ll be your
Everlasting support, a listening heart,
Never will I take you for granted, for you are a
Dear soul who I can grow with, without growing apart

A Very Special Rose

On February 23, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Blogging, Friendship, Life35 Comments

Many flowers live in gardens
Their colors add light to our days
but one bud shines brighter than others
It’s special in so many ways

This flower radiates strength
and our world is a better place
with all the love that is offered
in it’s very warm embrace

This is dedicated to my
very special blogging friend,
Granbee, also known as Rose.
She hasn’t blogged in a long time
and I miss her.
I know I’m not alone,
as she is missed by many.
She remains in our prayers
and we hope to be graced
by her presence again.
We love you, Rose ♥
