Whether it be the way the clouds float in the sky....
or a yellow dusk...
Sometimes its in the birth of a friend...
or the heavenly smiles of my own children...
The neighbor boys gianormous catch...
or the way Hijeevey's feathers sparkle in the sun....
Perhaps the beauty is in a field of freshly rolled hay...
or maybe it is the sequence in which the three musketeers eat their afternoon snack...
Sometimes the beauty is found from Jasmines inquisitive nature...
Or just her sweet face...
There is a unique beauty from walking in the silky texture of a freshly tilled ground...
AND a beauty in the way the garden grows...
But rarely in the way it DOESN'T grow....
(psst... that was my nonchalant way of saying my garden isn't doing so great)
Seize the Day...
Leigh,
ReplyDeleteThank you for reminding me that beauty surrounds me every waking minute if I would just care to see it.
Regards,
John
There's a song I've always liked that goes -
ReplyDeleteSeize the Day
Seize whatever you can
'Cuz life slips away just like hourglass sand,
Seize the Day
Pray for grace from God's hand
Then nothing can stand in your way
Seize the Day

ReplyDeleteleigh- you are a gifted girl, love the way you have with words and your uplifted outlook on each day.
ReplyDeleteJohn,
ReplyDeleteSometimes we need a magnify glass to see it but I remain hopeful that beauty is always present even at times when the beauty remains unseen to the naked eye... sometimes the only beauty is found in the sparkle from a tear but it is still there... somewhere waiting to be seen.
Karen Sue,
Thank you for sharing. That is as inspiring as it is beautiful.
Karen,
It is 99 degrees here. Doing chores is getting quite uncomfortable. Thank heavens for the cooler evenings. I wouldnt mind you sending me some of that cool Montana air. ;)
Jim,
Thank you for such a kind compliment! I am truly flattered and I hope that you find future post to your pleasure as well.
