Living the Aging Life

A ship is anchored in our harbor….

tidal action…drifting slow….

It’s just paused out in the harbor…

waiting for a sign to go.

May Blessings shower you today and fill your life with laughter.

May you go forth with dancing steps to Happy Ever After.

Here’s a happy little rhyme

to lift you on your way.

May Joy and Smiles and Laughter

go with you through this day.

The night paints with a gentle hand

to darken up our skies

and softens up the troubled world

to help us close our eyes.

I hope that the worst of winter is gone –

that the Worstest Weather’s Behind Us.

I hope gray clouds will lift enough

that Spring can finally find us.

I pray for both my children –

that they’ll have a sunny day –

that their lives will be fulfilling –

that things will go their way.

My bright orange pumpkin finally gave in

from the blast of the winter snow.

It was a friendly pumpkin.

I’m sorry to see it go.

I’ve gone back to Doomscrolling.

The relief I feel’s immense.

My interest in the World’s Bad News

defies all common sense.

The temperature is rising!

Today I might get Out!

I’m dancing down my hallway

with a Celebratory Shout!

I’m burning a candle for Jeff today,

for successful surgery.

I’m burning a candle for Jeff today,

with a prayer that he can see.
