Summer Rain Making Way

October 4, 2011

Summer rain making way
once again for fall colors
raining down on crisp ground
golden brown, vibrant and pure.

Sending us on the road
be prepared, be secure
knowing all is full and ready
for winter white that follows
These lovely fall colors.

Summer rain, fall colors
blend into stark winter
Be prepared, be right
enjoy the changing, knowing
this is the seasons of life.

Spring soon, the brightness
the freshness bringing new life
Just wait for only
a few dark, dark nights.

Here I Am

September 28, 2011

Here I am in the land of uncertainty
Hesitating, doubting all I do.
Second guessing.
Not seeing the blessing
To have the choice to carry through
And make choices I have to do.

Make me strong and sure
Make me decisive
No longer in that hellish land
Of uncertainty
Not knowing what to do.

Bright and cheery
Only the best for this day long.

Hurry Up, Be On Top

September 25, 2011

Hurry up, be on top.
Mop the floor, swill the slop
Don’t hesitate, get it done
Be friendly, cordial and humdrum.

Your feelings, not important
The  perfect picture is the goal overall
Swill the slop, get it done
Hurry up, this is fun.

Listen To The Misty River Rain

September 24, 2011

Listen to the misty river rain
Drip, drip
Running thru the eavestrough
Down the spout to the drain
Misty, misty raindrops
Listen to the misty river rain.

Full of life
Full of promise
Misty, misty raindrops
Listen to the misty river rain.

Splatter on the sidewalk
Run down the lane
To where the cat walks
Misty, misty raindrops.
Listen to the misty river rain.

Soaking up the essence
Flowing on to the deep, dark river plain
Raindrops, misty, misty raindrops
Listen to the misty river rain.

Giving goodness to the world
These raindrops, misty, misty raindrops
Listen to the misty river rain
The misty river raindrops
The misty river rain.

This Is A Journey

September 23, 2011

This is a journey that I’m on.
I decide where and how I’m going to travel this path I’ve chosen.
We only have one journey.
It’s my decision to make it the best I can and enjoy the ride.
Even the bad I must find some good in it.
Knowing that I will be guided by a supreme and loving power.

Her Stomach Churns

September 22, 2011

Her stomach churns with the hunger for learning.
The anticipation of knowing.
The quiet solitude of understanding and the excitement to begin.
