I like to pause each day, to make time and space for observation and reflection. Then, with intent, create an offering to share. Each week I will choose a poem to share here.
field of flowers
field of grass
field that leans against the trees
field in summer
unsurpassed
field that teems with life unseen
Buskers playing by a train,
pick old tunes to pass the time.
Safely tucked out of the rain.
Buskers playing by a train,
sing the verses and refrain,
twisted melodies and rhymes.
Buskers playing by a train,
play old tunes to pass the time.
Blue sky
Blue shirt,
marshmallows, chocolate
and lots of dirt.
This is
childhood
here at Granny’s Camp
where life is good.
This is
ageless,
where the joie de vivre
is contagious.
Here we see the circus has begun!
With cousins gathering for big fun.
Connections that last
will hold strong and fast
With sweet memories for everyone!
