A Poem For You

A Poem For You

A WORK OF ART

The life you live
Is a work of art
Every day you paint
Just another part

Sometimes they can be
Winter glum
Other times they're bright
As the summer sun

And all the colours
That we see
Are the rainbows
That make you and me

And with each new day
Come sunshine or storm
Another new page
In your book is born

And we all paint together
And this painting we do
Is the world we make
Some for me, some for you

So take your brushes
And paint away
A new portrait of you
With each new day

For this life we live
Is a work of art
Every day we paint
Just another part

A Sure Sign Of Spring

Jim Murray · Went outside this morning to do my walking and noticed that this was on my mailbox. These birds must have worked all night on this. Hope they got paid overtime. We think they're Robins. I carefully moved the nest to another location.
