Spring Renewal

Be renewed by the deep riches of the earth…

Be cleansed by the rains of refreshing,

Bringing forth re-birth

Washing away the drought of the harsh winter winds…

It is the season when hearts are re-stirred,

And life begins….again ©JLH

What Do You See?

What do you see?

When life gets so tough…

To the point that you’ve had enough,

Do you see someone worthless, without a dream?

Do you see yourselves as hopeless beings?

Scary? No Thanks!

Spooky, scary, howling…BOO!

Smoky, darkness?…Nope, not on my list of ‘To do’s’

Things that fright,

And goes bump in the night…

Fall Splendor

Fresh, cool breeze…

Crimson leaves,

An array of splendid colors.

Gusts of wind, with sounds of hymns

Just Breathe

“You’re only here for a short visit. Don’t hurry, don’t worry. And be sure to smell the flowers along the way.”― Walter Hagen

 

I love beautiful things.  The flowers & trees, birds singing in the breeze.

I can really get caught up in the vastness of nature & all its splendor…when I take the time to just sit & wonder.

Life can sometimes get so busy & crazy, it can be rather difficult to slow down & just be lazy.

Sometimes, I feel as if my imperfections dominate my entire being.  Questioning every decision, every action. (Sigh) It can be quite exhausting.  I also, often get weary with the taunting of waiting.  Waiting for change, waiting for the sun to shine, for the silver lining to make sense of it all.  So, I decided to share this poem in case others can relate.

 

Cracked & flawed am I, not by any means perfect

I fall & stumble…I ache when wounded.

I bellow out my worrisome woes,

My hurts, disappointments & fears…

The numerous sleepless nights, drowned in a pillow of tears

How long, how long I plea…

Must I endure the stress & strain of my agony

Like a bird with tattered wings I fly,

Lost in the sea of clouds that have overtaken the sky

Longing for the peace & rest that has gone askew…

The solace, strength & safety, that I once knew

Like shattered glass, I’m broken, jagged, distressed…

Surrounded by fractals & fragments of mess

Is there any hope? Am I a lost cause?

 

During this time of questioning & ranting, I was reminded of the truth…

Starry Sky

Starry Sky

In the midst of the dark, sky blue…

I gaze up & see you

Blazing, twinkling, glittering, through…

Just being, beautiful you

Sunny Days

Bright & brilliant, shining light…

Bursting beyond the clouds so bright

So, enriched with life, like the freshness of spring…
