Another week of productivity

has sifted through our fingers

A feeling of accomplishment

pleasantly lingers

Now it’s time for our inner-child

to surface, once again

Time for play and relaxation

with our family and our friends!

Enjoy! It’s the weekend! 🙂

You’re Not Alone

On June 28, 2012June 28, 2012 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Faith, Inspirational32 Comments

When your sky is dismal and you’re feeling low
unlock the doors to your soul
and allow love to flow
Lean on a shoulder from someone who cares
as they hold you in their daily prayers
Open your mind to new hope in your heart
picking up pieces that once fell apart
Find strength in His Love and
allow your eyes to see the Light above
Let His embrace warm your inner core
Let your path be brightened
so darkness lingers no more

Endurance

On June 26, 2012 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Inspirational47 Comments

We race with the hands
of the clock on the wall
usually in last place
like a slow, dragging crawl

Everything must be now
instant gratification
when we should slow down
and feel appreciation

Maybe what we’re waiting for
isn’t meant to be
It’s all in the timing
and not all about “we”

If you’re a believer
it’s really up to Him
and what His plan entails
not just our personal whim

So exhale a little slower
demonstrate some tolerance
It’ll all come together
with just a bit of patience

He was so patient, waiting for me
to take some pictures~

Across the oceans

words hug through inspiration

new souls light our paths

This is inspired by Soma,
http://somkritya.wordpress.com.
She gives wonderful “word hugs” and
receives many herself
because of her giving soul, big heart
and constant smiles~
Hugs are the only gifts
we don’t mind returning,
so thank you, Soma~xx

Hugs a Plenty

On June 13, 2012June 13, 2012 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Inspirational, Mommy Years49 Comments

Someone needs a hug

if you look real close

wearing a smile upside down

in need of a big love dose

Revealing a long wide frown

it just might be you

to brighten their day

and bring their spirits around

They might be too shy

to ask you face to face

so it’s up to you

to offer with grace

Share some warmth

the cost is nil

but the gift is big

in a simple embrace

I’m not sure if the kitty was happy,
but I know my son was thrilled
(15 years ago)
and he was definitely sharing
a warm embrace~ 🙂

Wishing you all a Wonderful Wednesday!
