April Thoughts

Sticks, leafless and devoid of life, turn into the overflowing, yellow glory of the forsythia.

When Did It Happen?

When did it happen? I surely don’t know
But honestly it distresses me so.
I look in the mirror and what do I see?
Certainly no one that looks like me!

Once Again

The winter snow, slippery ice, bitter cold temperatures, and wind chills are gone.

Memorial Day

We gather on the green, the sidewalks, and the roadways to honor and remember those who died in service to our country.

April

Yellow sunshine
Flowering bulbs
Color and Beauty
Return to the world
Giving us Hope.

Thoughts

Lack of kindness
and lack of compassion
equals lack of love.
So let us begin by being kind.

Back Yard Friends

Watching the birds on a snowy morning
They come and go without any warning
Nibbling and fleeing, as flighty they are
Running away, but not very far.

A February Memory

February’s bitter cold keeps me inside this snowy winter morning.
Yet outside, my friends, the birds and squirrels wait for me.

Sounds We Heard Once More

Oh, the sounds that graced my ears
From childhood and beyond,
The memories they often stir
Seem sometimes all but gone.
