The simple frees us.

We can rest from future fears.

We can love what is.

My Heaven, Part 6

A comfy blanket,

Another book about trains,

A time beyond price.

Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!

My Heaven, Part 5

Tiny fingers play…

What song, well I cannot say.

Yet it is perfect.

Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!

My Heaven, Part 4

Simple food and thought.

A book, a pen, an idea.

Morning fit for kings.

Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!

My Heaven, Part 2

My baby boy sings,

And the lit monitor rings,

As Heaven appears.

Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!

My Heaven,

A cup of coffee,

The Sun lifting up her gaze.

Here is my Heaven.

Simple Tasks

Tell a joke and bring a smile.

Take a load off for a while.

Just be you, and do your best.

When you’re finished, take your rest.

Find your clan and settle in.

Love, be loved, embrace your kin.

Treat the stranger as a friend.

Let your kindness have no end.

Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!

Cup of Tea

A simple day, a cup of tea,

Heaven for a soul like me.

However twisted life may be,

My Center keeps me feeling free.

When my world grinds on noisily,

I turn within, still Light to see;

A momentary place to flee

And find sacred Serenity.

Thanks for Reading! Be Blessed!

Simply

Choose simplicity.

Life is already complex.

Love and live simply.

Dimly Lit

I arise to start the day

In my humble little way.

Sacred Scripture, poetry,

Some coffee, all bring peace to me.

I think we all could benefit

From simple mornings, dimly lit.

For if in peace we start our day,

We’ll likely live and end that way.
