Plant your own Garden

Love yourself

COMES THE DAWN

After awhile you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, 

and you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and company doesn't mean security

 and you begin to understand that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises 

and you begin to accept your defeats with your head held high and your eyes open 

with the grace of a woman and not the grief of a child. 

You learn to build your roads on today 

because tomorrows ground is too uncertain for plans

and futures have a way of falling down mid flight. 

After awhile you learn that even sunshine burns 

if you get too much 

so you plant your own garden and decorate your soul instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers

 and you learn that you really can endure, 

that you are strong and really do have worth 

and you learn and learn and you learn 

with every goodbye you learn

Happy Holiday

                                      My kind of Holiday. I stay put and the world goes away!
                                                      

Happy Holiday

              An unusually beautiful, quiet, calm greeted me 
                       as I stepped out my front door this morning. 

                                    No crickets cricketing, no birds chirping, no bugs a buzzing.
                                    No coyotes calling, no dogs bawling...no bunnies running!
 
                                   No neighbors waking, no kids cruising, no cats prowling.
                                   No calling commitments, no commitments calling.

                                  No TV roaring, no radio blaring, no wind blowing.
                                  No highway traffic, no trucks passing.

                                 It's a Long weekend and everyone is away
                                                  Even the wind is on a holiday!

                              I intend to enjoy every moment of this precious day.

                                       Think I'll play in my garden today
                                                     The weeds here never take a holiday!
