Like a quiescent sapphire shimmering in sunlight,like a mirror reflecting banked willows in moonlight,

The joy of being

Individuality

Upon this beachhowever long or far I combI shall not findtwo matching stones,identical in every way.

On to eternity

Days fly so fast we're forever surprised!Not dismayed, for we're eager for more—More of upwarding, onwarding,Each day discovering treasures to store.
My friend plays a trumpet as if God put it in his hands.

Encompassing all

Prayer from a heart at peaceEnfolds the world in Love,Alights on tiny tiger moth,Compasses great behemoth—Encircling, returning,blessing the praying.

Mite
