Living the Aging Life

Today I send you hope and love.

I send you happiness.

I send you warmth and merriment.

And, know that you are blessed.

Wake now, My Friend, in happiness —

with laughter for the day.

Rise now with strength of heart and soul

to guide you on your way.

Make now, My Friend, a joyful noise

that shows a heart that’s light,

and let the brightness of this morn

shake off the dark of night.

Be still, and let the silence come.

Be still, and wait the night.

Be still, in quiet solitude,

for after dark, there’s  light.

The quiet hours of the night

have come to bring you rest.

Sleep gentle now, in quietude,

and know that you are blessed.

Blessings be with you this day.

And Blessed be those around you.

May the peace of Blessedness

fulfill you. And surround you.

With Blessings.

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!

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.

The tulips drew a Butterfly

to flutter ‘round the lawn.

The tulips smiled at Butterfly.

Then, Butterfly few on.

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.

Man cannot live by bread alone.

Ev’ry one agrees.

For we all know that choc’late’s

one of life’s necessities.
