Some people are like
Roses that were afraid
To bloom but should
Have bloomed. And it
Is as if the sun became
Disgusted with waiting.

Jets
Look up in the sky and
You will see the contrail
Of a high-flying jet. It
Could be a military
Aircraft or a commercial
Airliner. They fly so high
You can’t hear them, and
The view from that high
Is breathtaking. Flying
Over the clouds is an
Experience that is
Unforgettable.
The Peacock
Out of nowhere a beautiful
Peacock showed up in our
Quiet little neighborhood.
It struts around with its
Rainbow of feathers all
Spread out. It has this call
That sounds like someone’s
Being murdered. It won’t
Let anybody near–it might
Chase them anyway.
Jasmine
Garden beds of jasmine
Are a beautiful sight to
See year round. The
Sturdy tropical plant
Comes in many colors
And is a great addition
To a walking garden.
Nothing calms the soul
Better than a walk in
A garden of fragrant
Jasmine flowers.
Winter
Spring is getting near,
But one of the cherished
Memories of winter is
When it would snow.
Looking out the window
And watching the white
Flakes drift slowly
To the ground was a
Calming, peaceful
Sight. Go out in the
Woods and experience
The utterly silent and
Holy worship in the
Cathedral of nature.
Rivers
Many towns started on a
River. As the town grew
It became a city which is
Where many of us live.
I don’t know what it is,
But the river holds an
Attraction for us that
Draws us to its banks
And be hypnotized
By its waves.
Beauty of Nature
Look up in the sky and
There is a breathtaking
Sight of a huge cloud
Of monarch butterflies,
Thousands of them,
Making their three
Thousand mile trip
To a warmer climate
How can a delicate
Creature do such an
Extraordinary thing?
This is the power of
Nature
Winter Snow
Snowflakes falling from
The sky silently, gently
Everywhere you look
God puts a blanket on
Earth to celebrate the
Beauty of winter
