Speaking Peace

13 Oct

My goal today is to find a way
to say a kind word or two.
Not that this is something new.
Perhaps I’ve said a word to you?
I try to parcel out a few
to passersby and strangers, too.
No matter what you say or do,
even if you have no clue
about the value to ensue,
the words are gems of great value.
Once spoken, I must say adieu.

May peace rest upon you
and you,
and you,
and you,
and you,
and you.

Oh, and you, too.

Brilliant Day

11 Oct

Even when dark clouds are all around, they don’t match the beauty of Brilliance!

Make this a Brilliant day!

Scary Noise

5 Oct

There’s a noise in my house that scares me so.
It comes from the bedroom and makes me go
very weak in the knees and short of breath.
It might be the horrible sounds of death!

I went to the closet and got my bat;
I’ll take it along with more confidence that
if death is hiding to spring on me,
I’ll give him a taste of this hickory tree.

So now, courage up; stand tall like a man.
If anyone says “you can’t”, say “I can!”
Tiptoe into place, fling open the door
and there in the corner, stretched out on the floor
is the source of my fear, Maggie May’s ghastly snore!
