Watching my toenails grow at snail pace enjoying the sun weathering my face, a hat lay beside my cushioned chair but I relish the breeze lifting my hair. The river flows beyond at lazy speed beckoning my gaze so I give it heed, watching two geese go swimming by then I notice a hawk circling on high. A smile hints of thinking history old Grafton, preserved for us to now behold. |

Little Things God created us All To dance and sing, To Honor and obey, To lead do not follow And most of all to be a positive Role model |

four eyes, two noses wagging tail, cheek roses one mile, two walking two friends, one talking one dog, one gal two hearts, best pals. |

“BLANK PAPER” I’ve always liked paper. Blank paper. White paper. It always listens. It is always there and never betrays. Never judges. Never scowls. Never preaches. Never demands. Perhaps that’s why I like it. Blank paper. White paper. |

“SPRING IS HERE IN MY HEART” BEHOLD! I leap with excitement at the dawning of this new day! HEAR YE! A little rose bud peaks itself out of my soul! HEARKEN! The branches are stretching and my heart is thawing. It has been a long winter. ALAS! I am waking up. |

Home Where quiet trails wind the Lion’s woods Where kilns remain where they once stood Where crashing waves fall upon our shore Where echoing blues are heard once more Where a rushing river is over the falls A kind, kindred spirit lives in us all |

Life To look, to see, yet never know To search, to seek, and never grow To slide, to drift, to miss the strife To never care, you passed up life. Dare to love, to follow life’s stream Follow your heart, follow your dream |
