Stress DietSTRESS DIET
I've found a stress free planned diet,
It sounds so good I shall try it
Chocolate is claimed for calming the mind,
Eaten daily less stress I should find.
Breakfast to be chocolate spread on bread
A chocolate milk shake to clear the head
Lunch-time I'll try to be chocolate...

Secret SantaCrisp air
snuggling into my scarf
shuffling through the snow
off to get the mail i go
As i flip through the Christmas cards
I notice there is one from Santa.
Oh how excited the boys will be
to see that Santa has sent a letter to me.
I tell...

SeasonsAutumns here, not to cold
Roses are still blooming
Looking around I see lots to do
Dead heading,weeding and pruning
Bulbs ive bought for next year
To pop their heads up here and there
And the sweet pea seed pods
Are drying in the air
It's time to tidy up our plot
With lots...

Ode To SamanthaMummy’s cat Samantha is as old as can be
Mummy’s cat Samantha doesn’t really like me
She sleeps in dad’s chair, like she’s under a spell
Nothing ever disturbs her, till I give out a yell
You should see her run when I starts up my din
Once they went...

Harvest TimeAnnually the garden
provides the results
of one’s labour--together
fresh vegies and fruit
a gift of heaven,
to you Lord
thanks

Taking Dinner To My MotherIt was her breast I suckled on
Her lap that I gladly sat upon
T'was her who banished all my fears
The one who wiped away my tears
Taught me right from wrong as a lad
Made us a loving family with my dad
Washed, fed us and dressed us well
If...

Cooperative JourneysIt interests me,
this journey into the garden
each spring
to notice how diverse vegies
and flowers,
edibles
and ornamentals,
pollinators
and soil enrichers,
work cooperatively together
when they can
My own planning part
notices potential competitions,
for light
water
deeper top soil,
but these pursue
optimizing cooperation
to jointly thrive,
not competition
to barely survive
trauma,
stress,
pain,
loss,
duress.
While sitting in the shade
looking over a host of community...

The Drought In the Land of PlentyWhen drought hits hard
in the land of plenty
it takes time
for the reality
to sink in
whilst we drink our
pre church latte'
we ask God to bless us
for we are your faithful servants
we think we deserve
for our God to bless us
and He does
in His own way
the ignorance, however
is...

Our HillsFinding exalted pleasure playing happily in the hills.
Memories of the softly undulating land called the hills.
A welcome meeting place for frolicking in the sun with friends.
We could all be seen from afar playing on the grassy hills
Remembering Bob Moore trudged up the hill looking for...

He Leadeth MeHE LEADETH ME
The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want,
He leadeth to lose Corona virus weight gain,
and to keep it off for my health's sake.
He causes me to remember
to drink water instead of sweet drinks.
He maketh me to lie down when tempted
to indulge in...
