Hanging Out With Those You Admire?
Listening to folks who are very smart,
Who make their life choices from the heart.
The thoughts that they share,
Reveal that they care,
Considering impact from the start.
What’s Best About Home For You?
When looking at ground while it’s snowing,
It’s hard to remember the growing.
It will come to be.
That’s when I will see
Green plantings push through and get going.

What’s Your Current “Gratitude” Prompt?
A gift that can come with vacation,
Is feeling a heightened sensation,
Of what is around.
The beauty that’s found
In gently observing creation.

To stay, needed confidence-arming.
Where Are You Seeing Hope-Filled “Movement”?
Melt-water is running and I’m thrilled!
I’m naming this movement as “hope-filled”.
Winter end in sight,
With more hours of light.
But cold yet to come is still strong-willed.

How Are You Preparing for Your Next “Big Thing”?
So rather than being judgmental,
What if instead, you could be gentle?
I think we will find,
That when we are kind,
Our progress is still incremental!!

Are You Dragging in Spite of Your Intentions?
If rather than moving, you’re stalling,
If couch-time is what you hear calling,
Think what you can find,
To spark up your mind.

I’m from an era when Christmas cards or letters, —
Absolutely required;
Especially from Bob’s heritage.

Brilliant, splashing, riotous colors of Marimekko fabric,
Morphed into whimsical toys, bags, & more;

Truly, it made me want to dance.
How Was The View Different?
November on the North Shore of Lake Superior, Known for time of cold, & Big, Crashing Waves on Lake. Well — sometimes.
