I.
Schedules and deadlines
follow me unfailingly
where are you, hammock?
II.
trees dance in the breeze
to wind’s melody, a glance
from the glaring screen
III.
grateful not to be
en route to unemployment
eager for Monday

Human hazardous
actions cause unthinkable
harm; strong will to live
Allow me to introduce to you Silent Knight…
a Sea Lion of strength and courage,
who endured 5 bullets to his head,
leaving him blind in both eyes.
Instead of giving up the fight,
he now happily thrives on life in the local zoo,
with the help of kind-hearted humans nursing him back to health.
This is only one heartwarming story of mammals struggling to live
after human’s thoughtless and heartless acts of violence.
All of the stories touched and tugged at our hearts~ ♥

Don’t you wish that you could fly
above the clouds in the clear blue sky,
soaring with the angels near,
erasing all your worries and fear?
Wouldn’t it be amazing to swim
in the turquoise ocean just on a whim,
gliding with a friendly dolphin,
serenaded by an elegant violin?
Imagine skipping through a lush meadow
with the company of a vibrant butterfly show
or tip toeing amongst the glowing stars
to the music of strumming guitars
Close your eyes, twinkle your nose
Cross your arms, curl your toes
Blink three times, twirl around
Concentrate; okay, here goes…

There is no poem for today,
but for the lack of a poem,
I though I’d share these beautiful flowers
my hubby and I bought at a local
farmer’s market this weekend.
I just love fresh flowers in the house.
The colors brighten the room and lift spirits
and remind us of God’s love through
nature’s beauty that we have
an abundance of…
Wishes for a Magnificent Monday! ♥♥♥
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~
