~ Poem the 1st Chap. Inspired Bye ~ Part #25

~ I reckon for a time... Amid the certain proving breezes of the moment, 
and underneath this ever pleasant emotion of His love given to both my 
wife and children and to me, and amid the shade of my porch roof, 
and in view of the wandering sky's. ~ 

~ For awhile I'll stay, and plant my but down right here and sit outside for a spell... 
Amid His judicious graces and in view of the many tendering wooding leaf, and 
many effervescent, flower bloom, and take this time and a sharpened hand 
in this very simple pleasure as well and remain right here. ~ 

~ On this porch quietly dreaming of him! ` 

~ Yes for my new child, in my easy chair. 
Rocking amid this simple wood...
 For an honest hour with Him... ~

~ (Yes for a quiet while.) 
Mmid the wonder of this glorious season, 
whittling my stick. ~ 

~ For I reckon real soon, this time alone with Him, well it'll be all gone, 
but it'll be all mine and a brighter hope for another time! ~ 

~ Yes a brighter hope for My family, and for me ... . another time. 
On another day with God. I reckon!

Benignity. 
What is benignity? 
So defined-for-me-myself! 
For me it is my zest I-know now for God and life today, 
my family. If it is all I can do to cherish these things. Friend 
I will! I tell you I've already won! Baby's laughter reminds me ... . 
Our Oreo cookie-looking-kitten named-pounce, playing in-the-
rain. How-everything from-birth has-remained so-curious to-him. 
His resilience as his sister just passed, yesterday. As he lye there
with her saying goodbye. So-I-feel God-brings us to this-beauty/
goodness, when-willing, everyday. Though even-we-do, 
or do-not-pray. His-arethese-things-benignity ... !
