tonight I send this blessing
and I hope it helps you sleep.
I hope the night is restful
and your slumber full and deep.
I hope the hours are gentle
as you rest your weary head.
And I hope you wake with energy
when you rise from your bed.
Busy Garden
A garden’s always busy.
There is ever more to do.
And, there’s pleasure in that “busy”
though the work is never through.
My Heart
My heart could use some courage.
My heart could use some pluck.
It could stand a bit of brav’ry.
And I’d like some plain dumb luck.
Miracles
I’m looking for a miracle.
I’m finding quite a few!
The world sure needs some miracles.
One of them is you.
Today and Tomorrow
Today turns softly into night
and fades to memory.
Tomorrow brings new promise:
the best is yet to be.
Weeding
Weeding’s quite addictive.
Gets me out there in the sun.
Lets me feel fresh air and sunshine.
And, it’s never, ever done.
Blessings
Good Morning, Bright Sunshine!
We start a new day.
Here are fresh Blessings
to lighten your way.
Asphalt Sealant
My driveway looks as good as new:
a large expanse of tar!
It’s waiting there to welcome you
when you drive up by car!
Parsley Woes
Something got my parsley.
Was it rabbits? Was it slugs?
Did it succumb to plant disease
or other pesky bugs?
I checked for symptoms all around
the space it occupied.
The soil is amply watered,
but my parsley surely died.
Lullaby for Today
My heart sends you a lullaby.
It’s a simple little song.
I hope its notes will fill YOUR heart,
and help your day along.
