Taking Quiet Moments...

My Quiet Moment - Building Confidence
 
 Blessings come unexpectedly
one should appreciate them one by one
for it is never known when they might end
only then one questions what is life all about
 
Too many day go by with constant wishes
it must be realized wishes must be earned
they are not given freely as expected
moments of silence can build confidence
 
What is expected doesn't always evolve
wants of glory needs to be earned
many think it is owed to them daily
with faith one knows they are blessed
 
Taking moments to reassure a life style
calmness shall appear more often
thoughts can be arranged on a daily basis
thus, decisions shall come more readily...
 
as one expects

New Beginnings 2023...

 

New beginnings rose this morning
with the glow of a twilight sun
thoughts encouraged came soaring
brings long awaited hope to one
 
Time passes so swiftly one thinks
as they wonder where it's all gone
memories are lost in a quick wink
with thoughts the mind does long 

Life is what it is for all
there is nothing we can do
but be happy and stand tall
for life is there for me and you

- Rhoda Galgiani
