Just a few thoughts from out on the porch...Sara
Out On The Porch December 22, 2011..Thursday To be inspired onto the porch I went The clouds were down the mist was thick Roosters' voices were long and loud____ Sound waves carried for many miles Drip, drip from roof and leaves Carried the tune an orchestar began to weave Deep bass of a truck in the distance Breeze stirred the sound, I found no resistence As I listened, looked around; what wonders My eyes also found_The Forsythia blooms Out on the porch senses delight From here I feel no fright_ Places in a distance_the sounds of guns Showing a deep resistence (to those in rule) Guns of war, guns of gangs Peace destroyed_boys being maimed Out on the porch peace envelopes Crow caws that warning fellow All is quiet once again Only Sparrow's song like a mandolin

Smile ˜ I believe that most all wish to always find themselves amid such serenity * My dear beautiful Sara * Away from the shadows which utter their continuums in sorrows ˜ Escaping as in a peaceful song sung by tranquillities Sparrow's ˜ I would once more love to find myself standing aside your precious beauty upon this porch; gazing into your beautiful eyes * Merry Christmas to You * My love always, John!:) ˜
