May this Blessing wrap around you –

—-give you shelter from all harm.

The Uvalde children haunt me.

Other kids head back to class.

And, somewhere, down in Texas,

children lay beneath the grass.

A bright little pumpkin sits at my back door.

It simply reminds me that summer is o’er.

I don’t know why the caged bird sings.

I think I’d find it hard

to never get to lift my wings

in a cage that’s locked and barred.

A Blank-e-ty Rabbit

is back in my yard.

Eating zucchini.

Making life hard.

Mankind and Rabbits

cannot co-exist!

The rabbits must go!

I simply insist!

May you dance today through fairy dust.

May you slide right down a rainbow.

May your heart be filled with happiness.

And your life go where your dreams go.

Did you see the moon last night?

Bright and bold and clear and light.

Shim’ring in the midnight sky.

Lighting earth as it slipped by.

Suddenly, the pests are gone.

My garden’s rabbit free.

I hope they found a better yard

far far away from me.

Lay your head down gently.

Now, in quiet, close your eyes

And when you wake tomorrow

life will be a grand surprise!

Tomorrow will be another day.

We’ll get to try again.

We’ll leave behind

the faults of today –

and the things that might have been.
