Golden Godsend
Good-gesture greenthumb gatherers gleaned grain,
gargantuan granary,
grower's great goodwill greeting,
gazillion grade-schoolers, grownups,
gingham-garbed grandmother's,
grievous growling guts gone,
gain gastronomical goodies gardens,
grapes, granola, gourds, gosh!
generosity galore, golly, gobsmacked!

These Masks Are a Godsend To Me
My heart is skipping down the sidewalk
But my feet are refusing to move
Arthritis is ruining the liveliness
My joy is apparent to those who know me

People who hate rain don’t understand
that falling raindrops are a blessing that’s true.
They don’t fall from a clear sky that’s blue.
For raindrops, a sky has to become dark and gray.
We can afford to occasionally miss a sunny day.
So don’t be annoyed with an essential rainfall.
It is a replenishment to
