4-23-24. My favorite song, "Let It Be" by the Beatles
Squirrels with bushy orange tails leap about the deck. Crickets hum, confused that it’s not dark yet. The caw of a blue jay
Leaves falling, Another season Decorating the earth. One red leaf In my path,
Memories of my childhood Visit more and more Each day, As ghosts of past relatives Cast their shadows,
I heard past generations In my son’s voice, I saw his life fly Into another dimension, A place, I can only imagine.
Red cardinal dancing On white snow, How regal you appear With your cloak of red, How it cheers my heart
In the bright moments My mind is a flame, Melting obstacles, Gaining gifts of wisdom. In the dark moments
The many places I have been And countless faces I have seen, The many tales to be told, Into the universe, they unfold. It’s all a passing show,
Firefly shine your light, Brighten my life, Lead the way, through The meadows, in my mind. Firefly, float so high,
Soft gray clouds pass slowly by, Soon they will release a gift of r… Trees are shedding their leaves As they turn red, orange and yello… Signaling the squirrels to collect…
A path with heart Is full of love Which makes us right Brings in the light And chases the dark.
Pretend there is no tomorrow becau… there might not be. Live like there is only this momen… that is the truth. Nothing is solid but whispery,
Red and gold leaves Falling, Sing to me Of the season of change, Before the snow,
The white snow, thin Like sand, over The fields, blowing Across the road. My car rambles
The hummingbirds are buzzing As well as the bees. The Orioles land gingerly On top of the feeder. Cautiously they move down
Sometimes wonder about a star, way afar. How life might be in outer space,
