How Little We’ve Learned
October 27, 2022 What size is the building for all of the booksIt would take to contain what we think we have learned?But that’s only one section, a small little nook,So much we don’t know, so few pages we’ve turned. … Continue reading
A Smile
October 26, 2022 Sometimes it’s the small things that lodge in my heart,Perhaps just a smile, or a hug, or firm hand.It’s the warmth and the feelings such gestures impart,Affirming assurance that friends understand. It takes but an instant to … Continue reading
Judge Not
October 18, 2022 If I don’t know the path that you’ve trod,Nor walked in your shoes, not a step,Then I’ve no right to think you are odd,Or consider your actions inept. Perhaps you’ve survived many trials,That would cause many others … Continue reading
Alone Not Forgotten
October 17, 2022 Find someone who’s lonely, in need of a friend.Ignored and forgotten it’s easy to hide.An invisible curtain begins to descend,With no one to listen, just sadness inside. If someone seems different and not like the rest,It’s easy … Continue reading

Morning Routine
October 11, 2022 I awake every morning, get out of my bed,Sip on my coffee, clear fog from my head.I continue to read and to write and to pray,New insights to see and to capture each day. I’ll admit it’s … Continue reading
Find Peace
October 10, 2022 When I focus on things in my life I control,Instead of the things in the world I can’t change,I’m able to rest and find peace in my soul,Stay focused on things that I can rearrange. I can … Continue reading
Purpose and Worth
October 9, 2022 I’m not able to function in life all alone,Don’t claim to be prefect in all that I do.I’m only a person, some flesh and some bone.I’m no master of trades, only skilled at a few. I’m dependent … Continue reading
