Rhoda and Her Two Best Friends...

 

Gracie 14 years old

Mother left her in front of my apartment for me to adopt at

4 weeks old!  

 

   

 Ginger 5 years old

adopted from an

animal shelter at the 

age of four months!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Loyalty comes with little white paws

there in the morning with the raising sun

and in the evening with the sleepy moon

 

Some people living alone need company

others go about their lives singularity happy

this life needs a meow or two on occasion

 

Being a huge animal lover I pray

for all animals of the world daily 

this is me and happy with my choice

Hoping those who read me

will help an animal in need

if not, shame on you...

- Rhoda Galgiani

Uplift the Soul...

 One's stroll is strong but quiet

eyes visualize the earths growth

beauty within springs all around

young harvest brings joy to the heart

 

Being alone can have its strong points

brings one to clear the mind and opens

the heart to more than the now issues gives

new perspectives to what surrounds one

 

Sometimes facing the world and its downs

dislikes its visions but yet realize what is

one then opens the mind and heart

to find their new worldly discovery 

Life can be happy and wonderful

provided one looks at it that way

being down is not the answer

find a moment that uplifts the soul...

- Rhoda Galgiani

Time Searches...

 

Visions within the mind dwell

longing to come alive with fulfillment

simplicity follows to slow the flow

of ones normal life's movements

 

Thoughts of achievement follow

grow to assure a complex being

calm that will come to the discontented

brings clarity to one confused state

 

Happiness begins deep within

daily one learns to rid the body 

of anxiety that grows with hate

calm is the final solution

 

Time searches for completion

for without it one will never learn

one will hover over ups and downs

slowly to gain the wisdom they yearn for
