The passerine sits silently
Nights are cold and there isn’t always enough food.
Every night,
quietly she is waiting
She knows he will come
She waits and watches
The man sits and watches the bird too
Every day before nightfall
She will come to the porch and sit quietly
It’s the same play every day
An unspoken bound
Closer and closer she’ll come
In need of company
A hand
Reaching out
And there she was.
Slowly she descends
Right into his inviting hand
Harmony.
You better enjoy the one  bird in the hand then two in the bushes.
Let’s be good to nature and nature will be good to us.
Life always has a silver lining.

i was sitting in my garden very late at night
when i had vision of angel dressed in white
playing on her harp a lovely melody
with a lovely song that she sang to me

with her angel voice every note in tune
took my heart away as she began to croon
with her big halo shining all around
i sat there and listened to her angel sound

when she finished singing the angel flew away
to her home in heaven.  where all the angels stay
now when my time as come i know where i will be
up there with the angel that sang her song to me
Everything  you do
or don’t do
depends on your health.
Do your part
live healthy.
Don’t wait to get sick first
to appreciate health.

Being healthy, the greatest gift of all.

Tears abandon
on the way
mark each heartfelt
yesterday

Send me a greeting
across the waves
when the green sea
misbehaves

Tell me if your heart
fails to feel
my true love
for it is real

Send me a sweet kiss
across the blue
knowing that my soul
misses you

Tell me you love me
as I love you
but tell me only
if you do

Precious raindrops tumble down
weaving nature's crystal gown

Lilting breezes stir the air
braiding Gaia's silver hair

Bees and warblers hum and sing
when the snow caps melt in spring

Diamond streamlets dance along
with their joyous sparkling song

Waterfalls in feathered white
cascade from their noble height

Winter's chains all break away
leaving life to build a day
To be loved deeply, intensely
you yourself must
love deeply, intensely
Faith deepens faith
Love deepens love
Tenderness evokes tenderness
Love tenderly.

It's like a river
You're a tiny stick in it
So, go with the flow...!
We never choose our path... It's only our "Destiny" which drives us to the way on which we move...!
I’m famous for procrastination;
I put things off til almost too late
And then I rush to get things done.

Well I’ve really done it this time.
The Church bake sale is tomorrow
I’ve promised them eleven cakes.

I’m famous for my Yum-yum cakes,
Rich with fruit and coconut.
They sell like hot dogs at a fair.

The ingredients are all lined up -
They only lack the blending
But my mixer just froze up and died.

So now I’m really in a mess
No time to go and get repairs
I’ll have to do it all by hand
And I will go stir-crazy.
