the thought that counts

Sometimes it's the thought that counts
silly as it can be
the meaning gets across
brightly days indeed.

Moments of Waiting

Sometimes I just feel like
I am waiting
for something to happen.
And I am not sure what I expect it to be.
But I try to enjoy the sunshine
while I wait. 

Impossible Spring Planning

The weather is so changeable
Hot and sunny one day- cold and grey the next
it makes it hard to plan
event to choose an outfit for the day.
Put away the blankets and sweaters or no?
New projects moving in fits and starts.
While we wait for the spring storms to clear
and things to make more sense.
It is all a metaphor, of course.
These days what isn't?

sunshine makes all the difference

The weather is everything sometimes.
not much has changed, but today
the sun helped
bake a little joy into
the mix

Soaking in Some Sun

Important to stop and notice
that the sun is shining
and it warms up our bones
our ideas
our dreams.
Winter doesn't last forever.
And I notice that the sun feels warmer
when it is cold outside.

Break Time is Almost Over

break time is almost over.
see you later sea, sun and sand.
just enough time left for a lovely family meal
and a dip in the hot tub.
then back at it.
It was a good wedding-related visit and our
congrats to the happy couple.
family time is a wonderful wonderful thing.
