Sweet as a laughing brook through the
River of a steaming day
Fulsome as pirouetting snow
Around a singing, horse-drawn sleigh
Delicious as the ripest berries
Celebrating flavour
Lush as Indigo moonlight
Glimmering Silver to ponder and savour
Life Sings
Spirit Sighs
Heartbeat Whispers
Dreams Fly
Symphony of Harmonious Sound
Ever Ringing
Ever Springing
With Blessings Waiting to be Found

In this world of rushing and instant gratification, it is very easy to overlook the Beauty evident all around us. Yes, there is an equal amount that is not beautiful, to be sure, but every blossom, every lilting birdsong, every shimmering sunrise, and whispering breeze holds within it the simplest, most profound beauty, peace, and Jubilation. One only needs to refocus for a few moments to discover the vast treasure trove scintillating all around.
This verse is an attempt to help the reader rediscover that focus, if only for the briefest moment.

My dear Morgan, you accomplished your purpose to encourage your reader to refocus. What a lovely poem and reminder to stop and enjoy the roses.
I haven’t forgotten your email. Life has been so crazy and I haven’t had the time to read more than one or two blogs a day at the most. Somedays I don’t even check my email. Downsizing was supposed to give me more time, but our community is very active and I’ve gotten involved with the social committee (my good friend and neighbor is one of the co-chairs) and I have been doing a lot of babysitting for one or the other of my granddaughters or both. I love being with them but their energy leaves me exhausted at the end of the day.
Take care and don’t give up on me. Love and hugs. ❤️❤️
