Gratitude

An Ode to Triple Mango Ice Cream
I am in Williamsburg, Virginia on spring break (almost over now) for a reunion with my graduate school gal friends from almost 30 years ago. When I was done with walking the streets of Colonial Williamsburg, I stumbled upon a Baskin-Robbins store near a parking lot that I tucked my car in. Mango is one of my favorite fruits, so I was excited beyond words to see they have a triple mango ice cream variety. It was so good I had to write an ode in limerick to it.

The fragance of LOVE
Just a smile, and heavens unfold wide, Warmth of light embraced me by your side. In your eyes, I saw the tears appear, Sweet tears of longing, drawing near.

Troubled I Am
1. Pen and paper, keyboard and hand; using these I flee, from my awful abysmal reality Troubled I am Most days, no one accounts for my existence, not a knock on the or even a useless piece of post

Where the Snacks Grow Wild
My heart wanders now to a place, far in time, out back, up the hill, beyond the tree line. I’m there, in the home where I lived as a child,

A Positive Outlook
“Every day is a new beginning. Take a deep breath, smile and start again”. This can be difficult to remember as we carry on, busy, every day.

A reminder for the rest of the year
A reminder for the rest of the year ✨I hope you have experienced moments that bewildered the light in you, I hope in the moments of darkness, you have held onto the hand of sanguinity. In the moments where you wanted to cry, I hope you have sobbed your heart out over whatever makes you sad, in the atrocities of time and the beauty of life, I hope you had your moments of celebrating the beauty of you and the growth you have embraced. To have moments of doubt and regret for not being able to achieve what you desired to achieve, mourn over who you were, and embrace the joy of who you are and the light that you are about to step into.
