A Sweet Homily

A Sweet Homily 

The lavender scent on the fallen dew
 Treasure the moments that brought things a new
 Inside we pause to reflect over the kindness inside
 Soft pillows to claim the ardent fields a new
 A sweet homily in search of a passing few
 Perhaps we have bitten off more then we could chew
 The trees send forth their leaves with fallen embers lay
 We will humbly pray to start the mood of the day
 Nature beckons a new sound in the shade
 To behold an open door willing to explore
 Shades of grey tempers fly amidst the sun
 We were once young having our time in the great fun
 A charge of love in place of hate in patient decor
 Let's speak softly into the night a chance to explore
 Laughter is the best medicine amidst it's moderation
 Love is the true essence of my existence amidst a new vocation
 The sights and sounds of a circus has now come to town
 Rejoice in the simple things in life don't sweat the small stuff
 Bake some cookies for grandma in the corner of her home
 Take out the garbage and clean your room no reason to roam
 A sweet homily amidst a land of make believe
 Through darkened portals we can see a glimmer of light
 Keep hope in our heart through pillars of forces of darkness
 A bat and a ball are both thrilling for a young novice
 Choose to be open to a smile in the doorway of pain
