Blooming Hearts



Quiet images along the shore
stroll at their own pace
silent thoughts hinder moments
positive erase negative once more

Breezes clears the mind
images become crystal clear
a step in the right direction
becomes stable and kind

Daily grind will consume
spirits suddenly weaken
believe faith is the key
His love will always remain...

within your blooming heart

People!


People talk
breathe utters nonsense
those who listen accept quietly

No opinions
no logical understanding
no intelligence

If one dares
to question words spoken
they are trouble makers

So...all remain
quiet on the scene
today and everyday

Intelligence never
grows with certain people
who remain dormant

Not choosing
to live in silence
I will question and learn

Just an opinion
not very popular...
how about you???

Long Island Weather..~ haiku.



breezy is today 
sun bright we come out to play
later rain is wet

I Love You...



I touch your cheek with tender thoughts
moments we shared with delight
slows the pace of worldly treads
hold on to each other real tight

What else should be shared
love is full deep within
carried throughout the day
loyalty between two does begin

Precious love from dawn to dusk
happy thoughts remain throughout
joy carried from me to you
let me laugh and cry and shout...

I love you

Fear...



Fear -
succumbs us at times
quickly without introduction
why it comes we don't know
maybe an event from childhood

Fear -
is a real confining gesture
grabs our being holds tightly
mind shifts thought only to come back
shivers overtake, spine begins to sweat

Fear -
with right thoughts can be overcome
one who work the mind in a calm manner
trains one's thought pattern to understand emotion
learn how to deal with continued evil patterns

Fear -
can be overcome with work and fortitude
time is on one's side with patience
love of thy self is the golden reward
learn to take care of one's own mind and...

trust of one thoughts will overtake fear

His Love Is Always With Us!



Warmth within - a feeling of calm
joy come to thee as promised
with continued faith that grows

Alone - one is not alone
the mind must absorb that truth
for without it - one would be alone

Time moves on for all who carry woe
somehow we get through our doubts
somehow we manage to endure...

for His love is always with us
that shows us the way

Rhoda's Bookshelf Goes Boom!


Suddenly a boom
bookshelf on the floor
hours of poems to see no more
walls old - mollies fell out too soon!

Books aligned all in a row
could see books published so proud
a crash burst my pages so loud
sad to see mess pages lay so low

All is well books I will store
could have fell on my head so hard
or happened when I was out in yard
little sad I am but, won't fall no more...

all fixed by Rhoda

Nature''s Promise ~ haiku


nature lifts us all
green foliage brightens our way
promise seen today
