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

Behind the dark boards
a roaring fire warmed us
those days long ago
Generations played
cards; ante up, fifteen cents
while lasagna baked
The haunted cabin
around the corner scared us
entering our dreams
A snow packed staircase
made it easy for our dog
A view from the roof

I have fond memories of our cabin
from my childhood.
It wasn’t fancy or huge, but very, very cozy.
The best of times were spent playing games indoors,
hiking, tobogganing and sledding.
The last time I saw it, the windows were boarded
and I don’t have any old photos.
It was sad to see it that way,
but it’s good to have the wonderful memories
in mind of our fun mountain get-a-ways
that included family and friends. ♥
She played in a world of Barbies
He formed magical lands of Legos
They created art with crayons
and they both loved reading their books
A sister and brother
who got along quite well
They were friends to each other
It was easy to tell
Still buddies in their teens and twenties
through laughter and tears
They’re a team and always will be
into the coming years
Their alliance has sustained
through the growing, awkward ages
They defend, protect and encourage
through the turning of the pages
All the love that they share,
It’s plain to know,
will never be broken
Our Dynamic Duo

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!
the heart and soul lie
parallel among shadows
longing for a glow

We’re busy with end of year activities this weekend,
so this is just a simple “hello” and I’m sorry to be missing your
wonderful posts, but I’ll return soon (hope I’m not forgotten) 🙂
and sending wishes for a wonderful weekend! xx
