Thanks For the Little Things
Painting by the Florida Highwaymen
Take me home to where joy resides. I am most thankfuL
Here. My gifts bestowed by God are strewn like confettI
Around me! The salty breeze is like a warm blankeT
Nurturing my soul as silver stars are draped each NighT.
Kaleidoscopes of color reflected on each sea swelL
Shimmer and splash as a summer moon pulls the tidE.
Feathers of burrowing owls quietly grace my sighT
On my walks as a Royal Poinciana blooms regally near my patH.
Rivers flow like freedom to the sea and tall grass sways. I
Take a moment to watch my children play, and I soar IN
Highest praise to the Creator. He has given me an awakeninG
Enveloped in life, love and His glorious grace for all my dayS.

Autumn Leaves
Luxuriating on my brand new veranda
Enjoying time out with my pup Beau
A breeze whips up the dry foliage blanket
Vivid shades of scarlet, orange and dark ecru
Eager pup jumps up, quickly followed by mum
Scampering in those crispy leaves is such fun!
