An umbrella of amber
Traveling splendor
A Haiku by LScott
I thank You for every day
Each day is a new breath taken
If, at times, my voice is not heard
Please don’t feel forsaken
You are not forgotten
You’re in my daily prayers
Moments I should lean on You
The One who resides upstairs
It’s effortless in this “busy-ness”
To become extremely diverted
To pointless things needing my focus
And leaving You deserted
Still, I thank You for guiding me,
Shining light on my journey’s way
And while I may question the path
From You I will never stray
Amen
Here I am
with open arms
I give my love to you
My adoration
and devotion
are from my heart
so true
Mesmerized by
your baby blues
this came as no surprise
with just one look
I was lost
inside your dreamy eyes
Seek no more
for a caring soul
who’ll love you
as I do
We’re meant to be
magically
I for you
and you for me

I’m thankful for
my parents, who brought me
into this world
They had two lovely daughters
Then another little girl
They’ve lived into their nineties
Seen new changes along the way
Each day, I think of them
Each day, for them, I pray
I’m thankful for
my husband, I’m the lucky one
for all he does for me
for how he shares his heart
and gives of himself so lovingly
I’m thankful for
my children, my daughter and my son
for who they’ve grown to be
for their love and compassion
they give so generously
I’m thankful for
all those unmentioned, they know who they are
and for my loving dog who passed
She’ll be our forever star…
for sight, so I may see
all of God’s creation
for sound, so I may hear “I Love You”
with tremendous elation…
and last, but not forgettable
for all of you
my friends in the blogging world
May your Thanksgiving be
absolutely wonderful!
Hugs and Blessings

They leisurely stroll
down the moonlit path
Their shoulders brush
as he takes her hand
Soft to the touch
Her eyes, beguiling,
She leans into him
and catches him smiling
A serenading breeze
follows them for awhile
He’s enchanted by her presence
and her dazzling style
The path’s end draws closer
He pulls her to embrace
Her lips, breathtakingly near
He kisses her, cradling her face

Thank you
for the person you are
for the compassion you show
for the goodness in your heart
for the part you play in my life
For all you’ve done
the listening, the helping, the caring
Our phone calls
can’t compare
to the chance of sharing
a lunch or a coffee
together
Wouldn’t that be better?
No matter the distance
there is no resistance
when it comes to loving you
These words are simple
Yet, honest and true
Even through
the rhythm and rhyme
I cherish the
times I’m with you
Throughout our lives
our families have grown
Who would’ve known
we’d be so blessed
I’m at a loss for words now
You know the rest
What else can I
possibly say or do,
except,
a simple,
I Love You!
To my two wonderful sisters.
