Are You???

 When a blessing comes

it is tremendous joy -

So grateful for the love

His glow touches my brow -
like a halo!

A Day of Joy

Rainbow touched the sleepy valley below

Yellow streams within cast its glow

Bringing love to all who live there

Share their lives with someone who cares

Planting tulips with ruby red tips

As if the flower was touched by ones lips

Colorful blooms for all to enjoy

Brings happiness to every girl and boy

Evening comes slow but sure

Ends the day with love that is pure

As lovers wish upon a shooting star

Dreams of happiness will take them far

- Rhoda Galgiani

A Solitary Smile

How does one capture true love from

another heart that carries a frown that

hides their emotions from the world?

Or, how does one escape true love

and move within their own world not

concerned with the love of another?

Is life complete as one remains a single

shade on the painter’s pallet that drips as

paint does from the end of the brush?

Simple conclusion - it is acceptable for one

to remain alone, content with life’s path

and teachings of the world and her rules

as the heart accepts today...

with a solitary smile!

- Rhoda Galgiani

A Glorious Pause

Rhythm comes as the breath

releases thoughts of contentment -

a rhythm that brings joy to the heart

filling it with delightful pleasures

Silently the breath is consumed

again, life is digested deep within -

a pale glow come to light as the

breath’s strength nourishes

Serenity now becomes one with

a glorious pause at this moment -

whispers of prayer and then a

spoken word gives thanks

Protected and lead to walk

His path with guidance and shelter -
a soul is prepared with a touch of

His grace, from His forever home

- Rhoda Galgiani



Tears

Tears

 tears leave watermarks

souls displaying sad sorrow

the world’s eyes are wet

- Rhoda Galgiani



What Is...

What Is…

What is around the corner for me?

I don’t know, I just have to wait and see -

Is it a special moment that I will tuck away

with sweet dreams of change to come my way?

I don’t know at this moment in time but,

until then I will continue to write my rhyme…

- Rhoda Galgiani



Gim'me Chocolate

Gim’me Chocolate

Well, my entry is kind of bland,

cause I’m on a weight loss diet,

dessert is not good for this hungry hand

But, when I do have something sweet

it’s instant pudding, chocolate and yummy,

a creation that is quite a fulfilling treat

Open the Jello-O Pudding brand,

mix lovingly with one and half cups sweet milk,

fold in a half tub of cool whip with the other hand

Pour this mousse mixture into half cup dishes

chill just 5 minutes in your faithful refrig,

top with cool whip to fill your sweet wishes

Soothing my sweet tooth’s craving til

tomorrow when my tummy cries again -

Gim’me Chocolate!

- Rhoda Galgiani



Drift

 Your heavy desire

only allow you to see

what you are looking for -

Travel the road with questions

look high and low along the way

seek your answers; do not soar

Confusion causes doubt

clear the mind step by step

take a stroll to the truth -

Grow within the lost heart

harsh lessons are now learned

go back to trustful youth

 Sing to the heart with love

answers will reveal doubt

from the wings of a dove -

Drift to places of peace

calm the minds doubtful side

joy will come; pain will cease
