Sharing My List

Shared my list with God today

the pros and cons of the season:

how fond I am of blossoms, despite
all the sneezing – how showers cleanse
the air, refreshment of a spring drenching;
how orchids abundance bear, how perfect
nights are for strolling, loving couples
hands assuring – puckering in leafy shadows,
beneath endearing folds of canopies, stars all a-blush, 
beaming deeply brighter
from such intimate exchange – 

Shared my list with God today – more 
pros than cons; not grading His Season,
nor His Methods nor Reason...just wanting
to say about this one, of Rebirth and 
tasteful Sharing, I find no other, delightful 
enough for affectionate comparing....

Hi Wen; thank you. No profound message, just simple and sweet. I am a warrior on the outside, but a marshmallow at the core. Blessings my friend.
