Happy Mother’s Day to All

Today’s a day for one and all.

  A cause for celebration.

A day for each and ev’ry one,

 in ev’ry place and nation.

You may not have a niece or nephew,

cousin, sister, brother.

But one thing’s common to us all:

We all did have a Mother.

Happy Mother’s Day to Us!

Blessings for Your Night

I’m sending blessings for this night

to keep you safe till morning’s light.

Sleep well and rest. And, when you rise,

the world will wake before your eyes.

The world will bring new joys to you

with  loving arms to see you through.

Now rest, and sleep.  This day is done.

You’ll rise renewed with morrow’s sun.

Quiet Garden Story

The tulips drew a Butterfly

to flutter ‘round the lawn.

The tulips smiled at Butterfly.

Then, Butterfly few on.

A Rabbit Visit to My Garden

I met a rabbit on my lawn.

He flicked his tail.  Then, hoped right on.

I’m happy, ‘cause I do insist:

with Rabbits, Man Can’t Co-Exist.

Pacific Northwest April

Spring’s exploding ev’rywhere.

Scents of flowers fill the air.

Pretty blossoms bright the eyes.

White clouds float in clear blue skies.

It’s Spring!

A Dandelion’s Purpose

A dandelion’s purpose is involuntary beauty.

To bright the world around it

seems its one and only duty.

It lifts up with equality its brightness to the sky,

and offers up a cheerful smile to any passing by.

It turns out to the Universe a bright and happy face,

and offers to a grouchy world a willing, free embrace.
