Some Favorite Things
"Never have 'Favorite People,'" is Number One!
They are the Alpha of Creation and a lot of fun.
However, here are some Things, dear souls:
Short, medium and long-range Goals
Reached, celebrated and recalibrated!
Genius' in Loving, like God does, not Self over-rated,
Music in my heart and a Smile on my face,
Nature, those green glades in place,
Clouds, beaches and Alpine mounts,
Glens with flowers and new-life sprouts,
The Laughing Places of surprise or of joy,
The trusting eyes of Girl or Boy,
Provisions and bountiful Generosity,
Peace in God's Presence, endless Curiosity.
A focus and Prayer,
A breath of fresh Air.
Freedom, Transparency and Light!
All these favorite Things steal the Night
Of anguished Soul, the thirst of Despair,
The Lonely, weighty Care.
Serious Work begins to lighten,
Another's face brighten!
Home is then found Within,
A sweet Commune to Source and to Begin.
Hope is not taken for granted.
Sin is absolutely abolished, by Grace granted.
Receive a Collateral-Beauty now and really!
Kneeling before Father God begin to give freely
The Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh,
With no apathy, confusion nor pride to deter.
Rejection, frustration and fear are no more
For Faith is at the Door!
