A beautiful world is still a dream.
in a selfish, busy life as we lead
forgot others to care and share.
and we became more and more selfish today.
living alone as buried deep in soil.
nobody to care and no one to share.
we don"t know how many days to go this way.
something blinded our eyes to see others.
something blocked our ears to hear others.
and someone detained us from caring and sharing.
today we have enough time to listen to and to talk.
but no one is ready to wait for us.
there is no one near and dear and all are far away.
no buddys and nothing to buy.
no frys , no screams for ice screams ,but every where drys.
digital world without limits, but all are limited now.
we are ready to wait any longer and lend ear to-
the one who may come our way.
we do belief that
tomorrow will show us a new dawn,
which will make us real human,
for a beautiful world.

Love the life!
The little ... the much.
I love what I am ...
what I believe in.
What I want to be ...
I love the setbacks ...
that make me learn ...
get better and better ...
More me. Happier...
more man!
Stronger...
I'm authentic!
Not everything ... nothing
in words ... in gestures ... in touch.
And even more ... when I hear the silence ...
silence that in me.
It makes me more and more each day .....
Unique and true.

Let your Love Shine!
It's Time!

Loves time
Opportunities of Grace
space Interactions:

Grandmas
Are
Just
Antique little girls!
They still love
Ribbons roses
And pretty little things
To Jump & Dance for Joy!
To let their Love Shine
Is to be close to the Divine!
To touch the hem
Of Christs' Garment Divine!
Let your Love Shine!
Be it the beat of the drums
The keys on a piano
The strings on a cello!
Songs Lyrics in your Soul

Love lets
The little kid
In you
Come out & Play

With creativity time
Sharing, Caring,
Living, loving, Learning
Daily by the minute
Make the most of your precious moments
Never take them for granted
The space Dear
That moment
Between heaven & earth
Where the angels
Visit Divine
Shine
The thin line of the Gossamer web
To entertain the Christ unawares

Story time
Precious time with a child
Be kind unwind
thoughtful time
Be it crayons stories
Arts and crafts paper
Paint games math sports
Music arts plays concerts
Quality one on one attention
Unconditional unselfish
True interaction
Swimming

Individuality is where we All
Need to Shine
With the Divine
Angels for mankind
To inspire the human Race
With thoughts of
David Sophia & Carolina
Hands & Thoughts
That Intertwine
Be it love hugs sewing
Teamwork in the kitchen

Without individuality there is no creativity to Enlighten
The soul to shine
for Gods intended purpose
Evil attempts & tries to nip a bud from blossoming
To dominate control
To wither dry up droop
Separate divide
Drop from the mother vine
The security of her Grace
The shade of Love
But Love will
Always win the race

Evil can never stop
Gods creation
Like Jesus Christ

You can try to torture him,
Murder him
And burn all the Bible's
On Earth
But humanity will find a way to read it & share it
For it heals & gives peace

Loves
Yarn spinning in sync.
In rhythm designing warmth
In a hugging winter hat

Men & Women
Mankind

Giving someone
Our undivided attention
Be it man woman child
Compassion to a Grandmother
Adult or Child
Make the time
Take the time
The human race
depends on it
Thrives on it
Excels shines rejuvenates
Inspires heals lifts up
Elevates

Bathed in Beauty and light (MBE)
The cultivation of your children
Is more important than the cultivation of your garden (MBE)

Set down those cell phones
Turn off those devices
Love is not defined
By a phone glued to your ear
Or fingers to a lap top

Dare you
double triple dare u
Shut them off
Phones computers lap top
Return to the old fashioned
Ways in your home heart love hugs kisses kitchen

Wrap your arms around her waist when she's washing
Dishes at the kitchen sink
She's just prepared a
Lovely meal for you!

Snuggle
Kiss her cheek
Nibble on her neck
Kiss under the mistletoe

Wear your apron
Use those hands hugs kisses love
Give of your hearts willingly
Freely
No greater Joy
Than to share give smile
Grin laugh giggle
Smirk with contentment
Sending loving smirks
Of contentment
Back & forth!
Gestures of Loves
Non verbal communication
Appreciation
Admiration
Respect!

Homemade bread from human hands
Not bread-makers
The difference
Between night & day
Love the most important
Ingredient!

Seasons Greetings

Lovingly

I sure have sweet thoughts of
You & Michigan:
Couldn't sleep
Home was calling loudly!
Have been to "your area"
several times
Still swirling in my memory bank of Michigan a big slice of
Heaven on earth from God:
A precious, dear spot in my soul: engraved in my heart for eternity
Where the glaciers dipped out big holes that filled w water up to 50 miles wide Mmmm ...
the potential of a great friendship of like minds:
many great MI memories:
boulder park subdivision an architectural feat
big mammoth boulder rocks weighing prob tons: in the design where the roof tops w a special design blend in w Mother Nature in swirls of brown shingles in the tree lines in a cool sub division, charlevoix going over a bridge like a lions den growling below haha..., petoskey stones, Great Lakes, Macinaw bridge, Macinaw Island famous Jane Seymour & Christopher Reeves Love story ? Title somewhere in time?
fall leaves fav, lovely Christmas evergreens picturesque winter scenes w snow beautiful as a Christmas card! The trees in Alaska not real ones in Michigan full lush white pines blue spruce in the winter swaying in the wind like a "Lady's dress with white frosting lush n cream" Mmmm ... divine
Memories of moms nurse Maxine saying to me: "you'll be back!"
I said, " how do you know?"
Max said, "you love it too much to not return!" Home calls me home much. But it has just not been the right time: maybe in the somewhat near future: I will become like a salmon swimming upstream, fighting the current w all my might to return home, to find my mate, prepare a nest in the sand bar with pebbles and join my mate there
Swimming Divine, soothing our souls w refreshing water, equally yoked sublime family commeraderie, sublime teamwork:
Hands that love because they want to not because they have to:
in the kitchen, bathroom, hot tub, bedroom suite, master bathroom built for two, natural Lighting from the windows, a view of the trees or lake, bigggg tub designed for two: candles & warm water Mmmm ..., pool,
morel mushrooms,
dads garden & cabin,
Family adventures, stories, miss fresh produce, tomatoes, sweet corn,
Fresh tender asparagus yum!!! Fresh soft cookies,
Big blueberries, orchards, fresh donuts w cider in the recipe no frosting needed piping hot warm, apples, berries, cherries, blueberries, black cap raspberries, luv red & golden, black walnuts, black sweet cherries, Mac. Island fudge, vernors cream ales', Indian trails that r now highways, cities names by Indians: Cheboyagain, Petoskey, Gaylord, Detroit, Flint, alpena, long lake sunsets, need to publish adventures, swimming in spring fed ponds, custard ice cream dipped in choc divine,
Michigan shaped like a mitten seen from space:
One can say I am from the "thumb" area pointing to their palm hand referring to above the fingers for the petoskey area, or fm the upper peninsula land of sunsets,
Lake Superior, agates, refreshing swimming, over 11,000 lakes, home calls me home to beautiful memories
Treasures in my soul
That I greatly miss
Just need one faithful honest man to make the equation endearing, lovely, enjoyable teamwork
Gods design of
love & companionship,
Loves fresh vegetables plentiful at the summer produce mkt, do you garden have fruit trees?
Miss beef steak tomatoes & cottage cheese decadent' much
A poem was brewing in my head about u & Michigan I couldn't sleep much, along w that we have had a deep snow fall which is rarely
An occurrence here
here - prob 8-10 weather warnings have landed in my email over the past many days
Bet about 12-18" of snow "literally snowed in till the plow man can make it - he must be swamped w requests"
*Snow I think is multi purpose:
best part long needed precipitation due to drought last summer & maybe its Gods way to slow down the world to peace & quiet to home & family and a nice big pot of home made soup simmering piping hot w any kind of fresh bread sure miss "Betty Crocker buns!"

In the shadowy smokey haze she stands,
mesmerized by his fingers dancing on the keys,
he feels her presence, not of this plane,
she feels his magic, playing with her soul,
too late now, destiny in motion,
she sways back and forth to his entrancing rhythm,
taking in the pounding of staggering passion,
each sound he directs, to be imprinted inside her,
their fate has started her beauty aglow,
he tunes in the universe, with her mind entangled,
making a symphony of love,
purposefully planned, from ages ago,
he sends her his music, through the air it floats,
now they are one, in the same song,
a child was born from the notes on those sheets,
their time together, lives on and on

In-person meetings suspended
Conference rooms closed to use
By keeping a 6-foot distance
everyone stays apart—not aloof.

Blues, folk, rock concerts rescheduled
Museums closed to showing art
Theatre not performed on stages
Citizens asked to do their part.

Flattening-the-curve approach required
But when our leaders fail to lead
people are driven to poor decisions
and takers feed upon their greed.

Shelves in stores stripped to empty
Essentials horded, stock-piled away
Preparing for the worst to come
Hoping to be spared anew each day.

Public schools closed until April
Red Sox Opening Day postponed
Weighing decisions to self-isolate
with every day to be spent alone.

Boston Marathon moved to September
Walk for Hunger canceled complete
Needs in air still hover, linger though
movement ceased beneath our feet.

With tents as makeshift hospital wards
first-come-first-served policy goes out the door
Triage decisions necessary to be made
disproportionally impact the poor.

Forego cavalier, casual attitudes
Avoid need for imminent, acute care
There are vulnerable people everywhere
Covid-19 travels through touch and air.

Individual freedom temporarily bartered
to provide better protection for everyone
Embrace physical-distancing as one way
war against this pandemic can be won.

So you think that perhaps I’ve lost my ability?...
I’m stable, I’ll never lose my agility...
I’m docile, with twisted sick fragile fragility...
But seriously, I’ll twist the best that you can throw at me...

I’m fully accessible to those that can accept me...
For those that can’t, I do have some humility...
I’ll flex what seems inflexible at the moment...
For example, I suffer pondering ‘The Atonement’...

Some here have known me for quite some time now...
Most of you haven’t, ....I feel your highbrow...
It matters not either way what you think...
These wordplay words, are the last missing link....

I remember our first date
We met at winters end
We enjoyed a meal and talked till late
Like we were long lost friends

We met again another day
To race around the track so fast
And talked away another day
We told of secrets from our past

Days then weeks quickly passed
You opened doors long time locked
Showing me how to live at last
Releasing all the love I’d blocked

Quickly lovers we did become
Sharing laughter as love grew.
Helping us to overcome
Our burdens just as lovers do

Standing tall we stood our ground
Against all odds we did prevail
We helped each other to rebound
Always there we could not fail

Time goes by it doesn’t wait
Your friends embraced me too
They shared their love they didn’t wait
They filled my heart because of you

We grew our love that season well
You taught this fledgling how to fly
To spread my wings and break the spell
That bound my heart I knew not why.

I soared among the clouds up high
With broken spell by your side
When it was time to leave the sky
I landed gently by your side

Oh so quickly time moves on
We watched as Autumn came
Bringing changes with the dawn
We tried to keep our love the same

Life and love always changing
We didn’t know we were changing
Or that our love was ever changing
Keeping time with seasons changing

All our burdens weighed us down
Turn by turn we lost our way
We lost our footing, falling down
Until we could no longer stay

You yearned for home
I heard you say
I sought a place of my own
Ever searching for my way

That day arrived I left your side
It wasn’t long you left for home
I cried for days I must confide
I had to let you go back home

You flew away some time ago
I watched you stretch your wings and fly
I did wait for you, you couldn't know
Soon all I saw was grey sky

No longer by my side I often find you
Drifting on the pathways of my mind
Pausing just enough for me to view
Fond memories on rewind

You're always there on my mind
Just beyond my reach just looking back
Yet as I reach with arms entwined
The path dissolves it was an old track

Mistakes we make along the way
Make us who we are today
I hope we meet again someday
Perhaps by then I'll have found my way

Have you ever seen the sun,
Shining high up in the sky
Shining when there wasn’t one
And didn’t know the reason why?

Could it be because my dear
That I did no longer fear
That I would have no one to hold
As the darkness took it’s hold

Always sleeping alone each night
Fearing another sleepless night.
Never knowing love again
Destined for a life of pain

You took me from that life of fear
And wiped away all my tears
You broke the chain that held me tight
Trying hard to make it right.

With all my walls and fears abound
You found the way to walk around
Those walls I built to keep me safe
And took me to a different place

Now I know the reason why
I see the sun up in the sky
It’s your love that’s shining bright
Showering me with it’s bright light

On those coldest winter nights
The bells are silent
A magnetic field lights the sky
Even the night birds agree to comply
As silence gathers in the night
There is a sky so full of stars
O’er a horizon is…. Mars
We huddled citizens gather
Church meetings and turkey pies
People trying to stretch out
A meager means to survive
All is cast in such a ballet
New England Town Meeting Day
When every vote counts
And every decision made
What’s meant to be... will be
And alleviate any doubts
Soon enough the grass will be green
And Easter will rise like the sun
Erasing any fears that mount
Like monsters rising from the sea
This earth this place we all call home
Will keep on going and growing
Whether or not you can keep pace
Won’t matter 'cause it ain’t slowin’
What barely now is growing
In the end of really not knowing
What really matters or not
So sow the seeds of peace
Only goodness and joy will sprout
