Of Unfinished Perhapses

‘Special Family moments’ was my sister’s title to a photo collage on Facebook…

Oh, isn’t that the best treasure of life?

Let’s make today’s moments as special as we can!

(below, a photo-collage with some of our family on vacation)

Whether it’s a walk in the garden

Or *filling a crock with flowers

Whether it’s a book ‘neath a tree by a brook

Where summer spills its remnant hours

Whether its taking or leaving

Let’s make the most of Now’s glance

Whether we choose to sit for a bit

Or kick off our shoes and dance

Whether its warm bread and honey

Or September's blue-gold afternoon

Let’s never waste what none can re-taste

After the licking of spoon

Whether its laughter or sorrow

(for where there is love, both exist)

Whether its Must is a trial of trust

Or Love, gently rocked-cradled-kissed

Whether its nothing but Being

Fully wherever we be

Of work, play and pray, let’s make today

A beautiful memory

 *In this area, if one does not have a garden to pick flowers to fill crocks,

 many roadside stands offer bloom-bouquets ready to brighten anywhere you place them!

Today's memories hopefully will include pears and tomatoes joining jarred peaches!
