Photographer: Angel Love UPON THE VERGE OF SPRING Our hearts danced and sang on the day you were born, so tiny and precious, a true miracle of birth. And when the time came for you to test those new wings, we knew you could fly and do so many wonderful things. We all knew you […]
NO DOUBT AT ALL Open the windows and feel the warmth; let the sunshine in and forget all the strife. The breezes of springtime feel so very good; another long winter we have withstood. Bright yellow daffodils have started appearing for even they know that springtime is nearing. Budding trees in the park are ready […]
UPON THE BRINK I stand once more, quite precariously, upon the brink of what’s in store, upon the edge of the future and what lies ahead as time marches on. It has no intent of slowing down, time moving oh so fast, and in my dreams of night and day, just a tiny hint of […]
A “Friday Fling” toy-time triolet duet: TREASURED STILL Upon a shelf my toys still nest, my favorite bears and paper planes. I still think that they’re the best, upon a shelf my toys still nest. We play each day and hardly rest, sweet paper dolls and trucks and cranes. Upon a shelf my toys still […]
Celebrating 38 years of marriage this month, this week’s Collab theme was rather timely for me. Thanks to Angel Love and the CPC for the beautiful challenge. MAKING IT THROUGH We’ll make it through this valley of tears; we’ve been through so much already in all of these years. We’re going to make it, no […]
“Maryblue” by RC ACROSS THE MILES Lifting us up when we fall and picking us up when we’re down, always sharing a smile and never a frown, every so often an angel comes my way. And I can’t help but notice when that happens to me, my eyes open wide, so delighted in what I […]

WITHIN MORNING’S GRACE With Nature’s beauty so clearly in view, dawn breaking as the birds sing their new song of morn, I embrace the moment, the earth’s magnificent grace, a lesson to me of the way love should be.

OF SUMMER DREAMS RECALLED Summer dreams recalled within the early-morning mist, imagination’s wanderings as I linger here for a bit and gather them together, where sand meets morning waves and wind. And opening my eyes, I can feel the calm once more infusing my heart and steadying my soul just before the sunrise as I […]
ALONG THE WAY (from there to here) It’s been a pretty good year, I’d have to say, this journey I’ve been on and what I’ve experienced along the way – more smiles than frowns, more laughter than tears, and friends who share and folks who care – yes, I’d have to say it’s been a […]
