words like honey
oh so sweet
but for some reason
not coming from some tweets
i am not a twitter bird
but, i do know
that wise and kind words
really can flow..
and when they do
it will surely show..

For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but they became futile in their thinking and darkened in their foolish hearts..

summer mood
a bit subdued
heavy heart
from fires that start
loss of life
and loss of home
exhausted bodies
people bemoan
and question why
God bring comfort
and please
rain down on them..

paddle glide paddle glide
skim across the water
best friends by my side
what better way
to spend a summer day
than to
paddle glide paddle glide
with
furry four legged friends
by my side~

heaven on earth
takes my breath away
a fleeting moment
on this summer day..
heaven on earth
comes and goes
like the seasons
natures picture shows..
heaven on earth
far and near
and in those moments
i hold dear..

Where is your soul
in all of that hot air..
your speech is despicable
maybe you don’t care..
you speak often and rudely
to show you are tough..
that kind of behavior
tells me much..
about your character
and I am sorry to say..
there’s a lack of integrity
by the end of the day..

Snuggle, kitty cat
snuggles are free
better to be indoors
than stuck in a tree
stay indoors
where it is safe
where feral cat’s
can’t get you
and won’t give chase
to a tabby girl
who is mild and sweet
but best not get to close
to the flying critters
that have a beak..

Tiny Hummer relaxing for a minute
leaf hunters we come
we really have fun
it’s only once a year
but it is dear..
to a lady like me
who likes to see
the seasons of change
as they are not the same..
verena’s a great hostess
and she makes the most
of a special time
and Lord willing..
we’ll meet again
next year, online…

The Showing
As Miranda rested her hand on her stomach, her baby-boy stretched his legs, as though to remind her, that he would see her in a few weeks. It brought her comfort, as she fought back tears of not seeing Brandon’s grandfather among the guests. Brandon, had been raised in a household of very strict religious beliefs that frowned on intimacy before marriage. It was a shock to his family. At this moment, Miranda recalled the heated words Mr. Davis spewed out towards them in his anger. She vowed to shelter her son from any disappointment in his life. Hopefully when Jeremy was born he would win over his great grandfather’s heart. Miranda did not know if God heard her feeble prayers. She had heard from Brandon that God would forgive them and that he was a God of love and understanding. She thought if God was that understanding why couldn’t Mr. Davis forgive them too. As she pondered it was a bittersweet moment. She sighed and took a deep breath and just as she turned her head she caught a glimpse of great grandpa Davis. She was so relieved she could have jumped for joy, but instead,whispered a quiet, thank you!
