old womans wisdom

Beautiful and bright - It’s New Year’s Day
Time to look at life in a more meaningful way
Optimistic about a brand new sta rt
The heart of the matter is a m atter of the heart
Time, life and peace to all mankind
Let’s persevere this year since it’s a battlefield in the mind.
Being strong and courageous through life’s storms both good and bad weather
Just as no good times circumstances last forever.
Faith, hope and love help through every endeavor
This inspiring rhyme I m ust share
After all comforting, helping and loving is how I care.
how long
you gonna keep
pressing your hand
to that hot burner
while you blame
everyone else
for its heat?
what?"
you didn’t feel that
burn
the first time?

tinder shade of willow, a wiggled bit of nature’s pillow,
and sleep alone the late of day, and undertake pleasantry’s way.
A welcomed breeze to carry seeds to there soon to root and grow.
Oik lazy days can carry me to beauties yet unknown.
And sundown plays its colored raysof red, and purple shown.
To my dismay, I quietly lay with flights of fancy flown.
