The sun is rising over Cascade peaks,

turning the gloom to light.

It’s waking us up to another day,

chasing away the night.

May blessings rain on you today

like petals from the skies.

May joy await your every step

and bring you sweet surprise.

I’ve lighted a candle for you today

and pray you God’s Blessing in every way.

I have Corona Virus hair.

Long, and lank….a Straggly Affair.

But, no one comes.

I go no where.

So, no one sees my COVID hair.

I have COVID-Eating-Itis.

It’s no wonder I’ve gained weight.

I eat my way all through the day

amazed at all I ate.

The fairies must have danced upon my lawn last night.

Somehow they made a shining day:–beautiful and bright.

They must have danced with joy and fun – danced with all their might,

’cause they made a day that’s full of hope, optimism, light.

What other explanation rings so clear and true?

I think it must be fairies.  Don’t you?

I’m sending you a lullaby

because the day feels long.

I’m sending you a lullaby

to fill your heart with song.

This time last year we were in Kauai,

sipping Starbucks on our shaded lanai,

feeling the gentle ocean breeze,

sampling fresh coconut from tall palm trees.

The ocean is waiting for a tentative toe.

Hula dancers sway on the steps below.

Screeching birds swoop in flocks in the sky.

The ocean roar’s a steady lullaby.
