Earth Has Housed Love

Beauty that surrounds all who choose to see

brings gratitude for the life that was given to live

Time moves swiftly with touches like whirlpool

swirls of tender motion that bring gentle shivers

Morning light shines upon a land that waits

a simple thaw is yearned for just once more

Grasses reach for strength that is upon them

they yearn for daylights time clock to remain

Gentle winds caress the now barren branches to

move in a silent direction to a no where promise

Silent bare growth wait the new birth of a season

that forever comes to repeat itself year after year

Sun now returns to its evening bed that waits

rest is needed to consume duties for tomorrow

Birds take flight to their homemade nests

they will cuddle together with secure security

for earth has housed love for all ~ one more day

Thoughts...

The evening is brisk as stars wait for dawn

clear skies for all to see beyond the heaven

quiet walks in ones heart thoughts flow beyond

Hope comes to one who takes their quiet time

arranges life to flow in the right direction

smiles become one who drifts into subline

Ever lasting truth becomes ones way

learns with trial and error to understand

it starts at birth for some - they say

THE life puzzle design

As the World Moves On

Quiet are the thoughts of the mind

one wanders within their own being

gentle were the movements as one

strolled the paths of wonderment

Questions consume the trail of thought

as to why the world is what it is today

for the memories of yesteryear are real

days of gentle hours of thought and growth

Or was it really -

maybe the mind hasn't moved with time

one became stagnant for the feet refuse to walk

as the world progressed to a modern mode

Ordinary reminders of years gone by

the reality of what was is no more

for modern generations have captured us

spinning the level headed into confusion...

as to what it is to be - now and forever

- Rhoda Galgiani

He...

He see your sins...He forgives you anyway

He hears discontent...He forever loves you

He gives direction...He leads you on a path

He waits for all of you...He holds open arms

He speaks a message...He trusts you will hear

He trusts faithful to come...He prepared home

for those who see His glory

brightly before them...

Mother Nature Roars

Sunday morning is clear and crisp

frost has finally come for a while

not wanting it this past year but,

in the cards for it is nature's style

Love the cold clean winter months

seems to refresh all that is around

prepares the earth with lots of water

for spring buds to sprout their crown

Days are short - nights very long

going about ones daily chores

look forward to the snow just ahead

locking all the window and doors -

as Mother Nature does her thing

with her loud howling roars!

Love in the Heart

Love an emotion only some do feel

it is either there or it is not

blessed are we who carry the heart

for those who have not obtained it shall

parish forever with loneliness and hate

towards their fellow man

No Regard for Life...

Gun control will not fix this -
Mental Health will!

Space for me to write but,

 with the current events of today

my heart just isn't with it as

it is broken by a lunatic who

had no regard for life...

let alone for God

- Rhoda Galgiani

Close Our Doors to Hate - Period!

Closed Doors to Those Who Hate Us!

Terror comes to the innocent

without warning life is destroyed

Open doors to our country

brings hatred to our people

Long ago terror was just a word

never was one to fear the outside

Maybe an argument with the family

then it was over - peace regained

When will it end - it won't

if we continue to let those of hatred in

Safety and freedom should come to all

I don't feel safe anymore, do you???

Midnight

Midnight dark above the world

massive interjection to one

who allows to see deep enough

depth is shallow to eyes that wander

Thought consumes one

as sight become creative

generalities stand concrete

scetched into the mind

Midnight dark above the world

brings a time of peace to the patient

quiet solitude contemplate structure

leads one in the right direction

Thought becomes one

alone peaceful and gentle

visions are put together as
the puzzle of life promises...

from His blessed heaven
