Still Learning

Merry XMas

Xmas is an abbreviation at least 1,000 years old.
X is actually the Greek letter Chi.
The first letter of the word Christos.....
Meaning Christ.

Wishing all a Merry Christmas and a season filled with beauty.

Memorial Day Wish

May you enjoy this holiday
May you remember too
Each brave soldier dressed
In garments worn
Some crisp
Some now tattered and torn
Some with stories still to tell
Some with voices silenced
All serving to protect
May you enjoy the freedoms
These men and women provide
Say thank you to
Our soldiers, our hope
Our pride

Memorial Day 

Moment of Reflection

While rare is the acorn that becomes an oak tree,
every oak tree,
every last one,
began as an acorn you could pick up
and put in your pocket.

quoted from David McCullough Jr.

SLIP and SLIDE

April arrives with softened ground
Look where you walk
For easily you'll fall down
Silly adult wearing a smile
Climbing the hilltop
Capturing the view
Returning now having touched
The clouds
Having swung from the peak in
Remaining ski loft seat
Almost to the car....
Oops slip and slide
Laughing at life
From the other side

Lost and Found

I have been lost and
Found within the woods
Seeking the unseen
The unspoken
The misunderstood
Searching each leaf
Every cloud
Only to be granted
The rainbow of hope
The silence of peace
The joy of friendship
