An outdoor scene overlooking a cemetery. Headstones, road, trees, sky, clouds, planes, sun, and a silly phone reflection 😉 are all visible

The clouds are
so swirly today
as we lay in the sun
upon Crown Hill.
Light codes are streaming,
sunbeams are beaming.
Recharging our battery,
restoring our glow.

#Glow #JoyPrompt

with fresh morning dew
aglow on gold fallen leaves
awaiting the rake

Little spark inside

Didn’t poem today
Might not poem
Tmrw either
But
We saw a leaf
Twirl thru the air
When we asked it to
So maybe trees
Are the best poems
After all

Breathe and give more hugs

Just saw a handsome male cardinal in the brambles behind our fence!

Honored to receive this blessed communion ❣️ they say when a cardinal visits, it’s a past you, come to say “Hello. We love you. You’re doing great.”

Tears of joy and grief and hope mixed with #giggles and twirls

#JoyPrompt

clear as tempered glass
yet harder than stainless steel
sparkles in the sun

Interesting to note
that in order to sparkle,
these conditions must be met:
Light, facets, motion.
Spent too much time
focusing on the cuts.
Let’s try moving in new
and surprising ways,
allowing others within
to shine.

Nothing better than
Finding a huge swirl of joy
Bowl of fudge ripple

A glimmer is a
Gift reminding us to stay
