Love, joy, peace,
fruits of the Spirit.
Open your heart.
Love will walk in.
“Beach Art” By JT
I know you have probably seen the shells that sit along the high tide mark but do you know about Border Collie Art?
She is so well-bred that she leaves an amazing piece of artwork, all along the beach, as we make or way onto it
for a game of Frisbee.
Can you see her moves up above?
On and on she goes
Round and Round
Catching it
Dropping it at my feet and heading back out for another loop to get ready to catch it again.
I know some of you may tire of my talk about this pup but she really is what keeps us smiling day in and day out pain and all.
She is a beautiful artist, well at least in our eyes.
Other dogs just come to PLAY she seems to have a method to her madness as do I.
Her daddy is hunting for treasure in this B&W photo also showing her design all along the sea.
After My Son Was Gone
After I had my son there was no reason for me to stay in the hospital. He was healthy and beautiful and nurses, bless them, kept bringing him in only to say OOPS, sorry, do you want to hold him? I asked the doctor if I could get discharged, he understood and said it would be OK, good thing as I was going anyway.
Merry Christmas
From My Home to YOURS
Stay safe as you travel to and from to share the holiday with family and friends.
Peace & Love
To each of you
Eunice
SPRAY
Spray
Not all days have waves such as this
Some days the are just sweet and lazy
It is days such as this though that bring me such bliss
The sky was such a beautiful Blue without a sign of being hazy.
I love the spray as it dances above the waves as if to hold still till I capture it
It seems to add to the beauty of this photo with all the froth of this crashing wave
It is here upon the hill I sit and wait till just the perfect moment click
Though I now know it is really the peace I find at this special place full of powerful waves I simply crave.
I’m so glad.
Gladiolus, unknown cultivar. I love the extraordinary colour of this flower!

Song of Love
Sing the song of love with me-
The song which you know by heart
but have hidden within the valleys of your heart,
let it come to you, let it guide you.
Sing the song of love-
The song that will end all this pain.
Let’s sing it together,
let us all sing it together
so as to engrave it in all our hearts.
Sing the song of love with me,
for it will bring the joy, the beauty in our souls.
Sing it with me- the song of love.
To Return to Me
little girl with your dotted bonnet
won’t you
tell me the secret
you hide in your smile…
the thoughts that
surround your silent laughter…
and the dreams that
fuel your desire for life -
to devour every second…
to live…to love…to be free…
tell me…won’t you?…
no, won’t you show me instead?…
let me share your secrets…
let me drown in your thoughts…
let me embrace your dreams – as my own…
and maybe then
i might be able to weave
dreams of my own…and
see life like you do…like i used to -
with hope…and color…and sunshine -
like a child…

A Psalm of Joy
Today’s poem was inspired by a prompt from Writing the Sacred: A Palm Inspired Path To Appreciating and Writing Sacred Poetry by Ray McGinnis.
Divine parent-mother and father, human and divine,
I give you thanks with my entire being;
before the sun, moon and stars I declare your praise.
You pull the orphan close feeding her with the eternal milk of your unconditional love.
When I was invisible you saw me in my distress;
even when others refused to look upon me.
Your grace and mercy follow me all of my days,
like twin companions flanking me on each side during this sojourn we call life.
Who can quantify your ways or figure out your favor?
With joy I will share my testimony with all who need encouragement along the way.
Your praise will continually be upon my pen as I write of your loving ways.
Your divine love will light my path as I illuminate the darkness for your glory.

Write my LOVE Across the Sky
Write my love across the sky,
when you see tears of joy fall from my eye.
With pens of joy, hope and light write my love for all to see.
My love is imperfect,
but the image it was made in is not.
Love is not if it is hidden within the heart.
Why must we hold divine truth within ourselves
due to pride, ego and “propriety”.
I will not hide Love within my heart,
though foolish I may seem,
so write my love across the sky for all to see.

For Tia
No words or poem can console the loss of a loved one so fresh but I share this which I wrote for my mother who died of cancer and my wife’s aunt who committed suicide within a few months of each other. It took another year before I could write this. Let time be your teacher and friend and strength.
What will you see
When your sight is lost
What will you feel
Without feelings
How will I sound
To your deafened ears
How will I hear
What you're saying
Will you taste:
My bitterness
My anger
My confusion
My sadness
Will you understand;
I cannot, right now
Will you smile at me;
I cannot, right now
Would you watch me now;
I could use that now
Could you teach me now;
Would you show me how
When I think of you
Will you touch me, friend
When I close my eyes
Will you hug me then
In the dark of night
Will you stop the cold
At the break of dawn
Will you wake my soul
During quiet times
Will you come and stay
When the dusk first falls
You could light my way
You can count your days
As I count my years
You can hold me tight
As I count my tears
As the months go by
And time presses on
You will see:
My struggles
My resolutions
My perseverance
My reckonings
When my step first slows
You will be my cane
When I ache to move
You will ease my pain
When my light falls dim
You will lead me on
When my thoughts all fade
You will bring me home
What will I see
When my sight is lost
What will I feel
Without feelings
How will you sound
To my deafened ears
How will you hear
What I'm saying
As you lift me up
And I raise my head
We will feel:
Our souls
Our joy
Our peace
Our love
The Holiday Challenge!
The year end holidays,
When it all goes still,
Every one takes some rest,
From the fast paced life,
A moment of remembrance,
Of the year that is ending,
A moment of sheer pleasure,
With Christmas and New Years’ Eve,
Giving the joy of celebration.
If you would give me a chance,
To stay for ever after in a fixed time,
It would be this very time of year ending,
Where I would stay, clear of the competitions,
Away from the repercussions,
Just live in those holidays,
With stomach full with warming food,
Getting wrapped in blankets,
Lying around- seeing the celebration around.
These holidays I would say,
Are the one I like the best.
We attended a Pow Wow
Moving with the beat of the drum
After the medical excitement in the river last week I chose the activity this weekend.
I chose for us and the dog, to take a ride to Maine to attend a Pow Wow that was taking
place there. This was taking place in Wells Maine along the Atlantic Ocean. A few different
groups were there and they took turns on their drums while many danced for us to enjoy.
I will not fill this post with photos as they are already in a Blog at Living and Lovin, check
them out!
Have a great Sunday do something you will enjoy!
