The seascape, lies beneath a blanket of white.
From dunes to where waves touch the sand.
The scene is hazy in the day's gray light.
Creating a rare seaside winter wonderland.
Snowflakes so fine swirl in the air.
Before they fall to the ground.
Guesting winds toss them here and there.
They finally land not making a sound.
The wind causes drifting along the fence.
It is clinging to every window and door.
This predicted shortlived storm, is intense.
Mounting inches of snow, expecting more.
Wind is coming from the bayside,
pushing across the land to the sea.
Leaving an island with no place to hide,
The frigid winter wind, blows wild and free.

I believe in futures,
God's miracles guest.
The friendship with relatives and friends,
Sometimes I dream of having a boyfriend and husband again.
I used to dream of becoming a performer,
Singing a solo, I sang the song "Wiseman Say".
The seniors in the dinning-hall all clapped,
We are having an Elvis Social for Valentine"s Day.
I have had a very successful retirement,
Accomplished as an artist and poet.
I used to cook for my father Dr. Wolf,
Invited my parents to lunch and dinner.
They really liked that,
I like thinking about these times .
My younger sister and her children come to visit with their father.
I enjoy these times very much.
I used to think about the sisters performing together,
Father taught us a love for music.
We are very blessed to have these friendships,
I thank God for guesting.

Saint Patrick's Day,
Irish in every way.
The leprechauns and elves,
Irish cookies on the shelves.
Shamrocks wishing you luck,
The Irish sweepstakes help you win an almighty buck.
Relatives and friends,
Guesting without end.
The wearing of the green,
Yet to be seen.
Looking fashionable with emerald green,
Royalty is seen.
Their charming and beautiful ways,
We see them night and day.
They appear on the screen,
With days that have been.
Saint Patrick's Day comes once a year,
Appearing with everyone dear.

The weather is warm again how lovely,
The colors of the leaves are like a rainbow.
Sunshine and clouds are very far away,
Days for fresh air walks and beautiful scenery.
Everyone is delighted that the weather is this nice,
Leaves are scattered along the walkway.
Cautious walks when walking with friends,
Everyone dressed for the weather.
Coats and jackets and long pants and caps,
Autumn activities like tossing the frisbee and flying kites.
You feel at home with your world,
Beautiful and warm everywhere you go.
This is Indian summer where the rainbow world blesses you,
A glimpse and then its gone, winter draws nigh.
Christmas comes and we look forward to the celebration with relatives,
Guesting and good to see everyone again.
These are the blessings of God and I am truly thankful,
Each and everyday, content and happy.

If time witnesses pleasure out way the balance do one follows
Eloquence Of Beauty
Fatigue gas tank on empty vision doors open enchantment blushes setting
Late or on time perhaps evanescence of time can tell
Luxurious does it take from the pleasure or give to that of the beauty time tick tell the grace
Wait
If one sense one says what is the next of best of you?
Forgive me for speaking out of turn
Put of the essence does time wait for nothing?
To replay for a moment
Take for Instinct
Seconds for seconds take for instinct a presentation how does words projection the feelings
Kiss on the neck give life to the situation better then a look goodbye
Late or on time perhaps evanescence of time can tell
Grant a meaning for reasoning second guesting is out of the will
To start off
If one has falling in love heads over heel dashboard confession
Can I be Honest?
Better yet moons that form and days turn to tonight’s
Can you see a flower bloom before the season?
Late or on time perhaps evanescence of time can tell
Or is it another crush
Is orange your favorite color
Crush on you
ELOQUENCE OF BEAUTY! ! !

God sends us love from the heavens above,
Not always comprehended, while received,
A song that lasts in your memory,
A man you can't touch, perhaps he is Santa Claus,
Wins you with his song and handsome appearance,
Lives in a country far away, too far to travel during the day,
I fell in love with him, i wish i could be there beside him,
To be a companion and a love, day and night,
He feels so right and is an absolute delight,
Maybe love is just borrowed and imagined,
To dream the impossible dream and how do miracles happen,
Thank you for guesting in my life, our friendship could be just right,
I know that God sent you to me, that I wouldn't be lonely,
You are a handsome prince in disguise,
And I wish i could be your beautiful princess,
I wait for God's answer to my question,
To the man I fell in love with,
I thank you for blessing my life with love and goodness,
May God continue to bless you where you live and abide.

Dare I dream about a future cottage,
Where I live suits me well,
The beautiful tall trees and walkways,
There is a serene lake nearby,
Where you can view ducks and geese swimming past,
In the morning you can see the mist rise from the lake,
The sounds of nature are everywhere,
This is paradise to me for years,
To be thus blessed and thankful,
Days with nature and the outdoors through the years,
What pleasure and delight, at home with God's nature.
To return home and sit by the cafe window,
Savouring a delicious hot chocolate with cream,
My relatives guesting and sharing this paradise on special days,
God 's miraculous blessings come true,
Thankful appreciation to the Lord our God.

I am guesting in God's house,
Multi-dimensional and profound,
The beautiful scenery, tall maple trees,
Displaying their autumn colours,
The green grass lined with rainbow coloured leaves,
What exquisite shapes,
A divine tall evergreen, almost reaching the sky,
Clusters of pinecones on the upper branches,
Raindrops fall on the autumn scenery,
Moistening the leaves and trees,
The air is so refreshing, cool then warm,
When the bright sunshine appears,
I am alone in God's world for awhile,
Only to be greeted by a companion now and then,
I reach the palace as complex as God's kingdom,
Thankful to be home again,
Seasons are appreciated this way,
What a generous and complex God.

Senior retirement that defies conventionality,
The power to endure and stay strong.
To return to passages that reflect a forever young concept,
I choose to wash away the gray.
Stay slim and regain my young figure,
Resume hobbies that are complimentary.
Live at a beautiful residence that goes beyond previous residences,
The Lord's Ten commandments a reminder of God's blessings.
A mighty fortress is my church and God,
Song comparative to many levels of singing.
Fashions elegant and contemporary,
Socialization patterns exclusive.
Relatives and companions guesting and living with me,
God's many blessings and a good education guides.
University a favorite companion,
The learning continues and compliments.

Would think my soul were resting on some stair
of guesting that my vision were compare.
Just testing fate, my only choice were there
and that gone by indoctrinating fare.
I could not rest, if not encumbrance share
and that small scaffolding of hope called care
were in my power and in thy need, not bear -
inquesting space and time were my impair.
No consequence define but that abreast
of wanting thee - I gamely foul duress
for its attempt to muddle thee, and so arrest
does stop some aggravation - I am blessed.
To stop thy hurt - I pray for some ingress
that memories prohibit not, nor stress,
some lightness of encounter, some address
that leaves thee willful, strong, and so congress -
I love thee - that my entities undress
would keep thee truly whole, in God's pure rest!
