Kathy I have no idea how I was so smart back then. Wish I was still that smart. Lol.
I had brains back then,
Hid my light under bushels
The light slowly dimmed.
Thanks Monica, although it was only the high school year book, it made me feel good.
High school - happy? Sad?
Depends upon your status
If you find your clique.

Birdsong lures me out
for a pre-dawn walk. They sense
impending sunrise.
~~~~~
Sky turns pink & blue.
Crisp tang to the springtime air.
Glorious morning!
~~~~~
Gathered overhead;
Please do not poop on my head!
Birds of a feather.

Badger's played so hard
But it was not meant to be
Last shot popped right out
_____
A really good game
Playing hard right to the last
One point, one second.....
Red sorry you lost the post.
Hate when that happens!0 -
Warm sun in blue sky,
But snow still on my front lawn!
Sigh, hurry up spring!

Mother lies dying,
Hold her hand and stroke her hair,
My heart breaks for her.
Soon she'll drift away
To a land of peace and love,
To be with her Lord.
Searching through her home,
Discover a photograph,
Young and beautiful,
Again.

Morwenna. I'm sure she's glad you're there for her. It's hard to say goodbye. That poem is a lively tribute. Hugs. Blessings fir your Mom and you.

Morweena, I'm so sorry you are going through this.
You can hold her hand,
See she's softly delivered,
Hug her all the way.
Oh Lord, I don't know what to say Morweena. Blessings.

Morweena. My little offering. I know it's not much but it comes from the heart. Sing it to Leonard Cohen's song Hallelujah
.
She is my Mother that I knew
And I know she loved me too
We had our fights and sometimes it'd go thru ya
But love was there We had to share
And even when our hearts were bared
We knew she'd always be right there to school ya
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
And now she really clings to life
Thru all the sorrow and the strife
You want more time together do ya
As daughter sister mother wife
You never know the leavings rife
With fear and pain and terror that drew ya
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
And now you have to say goodbye
It's time for tears it's time to cry
And never think this day would come do ya
So now we just remember why
The love we had that just won't die
Cause it will always be right there to soothe ya
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
And when she's home With the Lord above
And basking in his amazing love
You'll know she's right near by to ya
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah

Ladies, I thank you
Blessing it is to be here;
See her safely home.

Wind whips up wildly.
Better leaves than stolen cows
Russ'ling down the road.

Dark skies and gray clouds
Bring rain and even some hail
Ah, Welcome to Spring!

The night-time clouds flash
with storms in the western sky.
Thunder heralds rain.

Exercise is good
Trying to stretch and build strength
To beat this RB
How is Morweena?
Has mom made it safely home?
My prayers for you.
Badger writes so well
Evokes pictures in my mind.
Lovely images.
Monica gets thanks
For starting this page for us
I like our Haikus

The Mother cloaks herself in green,
This early springtime morn.
And everywhere new life is seen,
A world again reborn
♡
The cycle of the seasons clicks
Just one more turn ahead.
We suffer time's relentless ticks,
Lost dreams, and words unsaid.
♡
The swollen streams have had their fill,
They hold it with no lack.
And though the days are colder still,
There is no turning back.
♡
Yet people always try to hold
onto the old ways too.
But if the choice is always bold ,
the future is for you.
♡
And so the Mother's cloaked in green,
This early Springtime morn.
And everywhere, new life is seen;
As we, once more, are born.

This is Gage. He is 6. He is my cousins grandson. There isn't much hope but i know that at least two of the ladies on this site practice alternate ways. So I need to ask you to light a candle, send healing, do whatever you can. He has MD and took a seizure and now has Leukodystrophy. In layman's terms, vanishing white cells. Monica, Morweena, please join my daughter and myself in trying to send this baby healing. He's been in hospital like this for 6 days now. Please.

Red, i am so sory to hear that. light and healing coming his way. Hugs for your cousin and family.
Healing for Gage is what we need
Healing for Gage is what we plead
Please send him healing and light
Bring him many more leukocytes
Fast improvement that we see
As I will so mote it be.

Thank you to my friends
Who try to help our poor Gage
Doctors say no go
He passes without
Knowledge of what will happen
They pull the plug Thurs
My heart is weeping
For my dear cousins grandson
His light extinguished.

...today i am remembering a thing my brother told me. he reads the bible as i do not, with complete sincerity and hope. i read it and notice it is full of trouble and poetry. but he told me and i never forgot, he asked me, "kathe, do you know what the shortest sentence in the bible is?" no. he said-
Jesus wept
and so lastnight i was woken up by anonymous drunken caller 5 times, and as i lay there, i thought of so many women and families and people suffering all over the world and could not pray or cry
but just love and worry, love and worry, thats me
thinking of you today Red, with sorrow for your grief and your family's grief
such a young soul to pass and just not fair.

I must be crazy
An operation in view
And I am HAPPY!
☆
Why is that, you say?
Because I saw my ortho
And he says he can!
☆
A knee replacement
Long awaited, overdue
Will really be done!
☆
Right knee will be first
Unstable and causing pain
Soon a new model!
☆
Yep going to have my knee done while I am "stable". scared but excited. 3 years postponed by many scenic detours and SEs. June 18th.
Much love.

Yay for Monica
New knees for bending, walking,
Easy gardening!
Gage is still with us,
Love, prayers and support were sent
I think he feels them.
They pulled the plug Thurs
He decided not to leave
So we wait and hope.

We will keep you, his family and Gage in our prayers.
