Spring Into Action, First Day of Spring
First day of Spring
Flowers blooming in the meadow
Roses, daises, tulips, galore
They sing and sway to the sound of the breezes amour.
First day of Spring
Bright blue hues paint the sky
Clouds drifting and floating by and by
Birds chirping and singing their lullaby
First day of Spring
Cleaning with Mr. Clean to my hearts content
Lenten reflections make sweet quiet confessions
Giving, praying, and fasting to make room for living waters to nourish our souls

Desert Blooms
A Lenten Reflection
Dry parched earth under my feet.
Solar rays make contact on my skin.
My mind seems relaxed, yet it
does wander backwards.
Thoughts of yesteryear creep up
triggering pain and hurts that
I long to forget.
My present is strained by the pull
of negative moments of past
experiences.
Son's encounter awakens my desolation.
His holy face...interrupts my wandering mind.
Bringing a healing quiet that stills
my thoughts...
In the distance, I hear 'be still and know that I AM God'...
A peace enters my mind & new thoughts
take the place of what was before...
Peace of mind reigns inspiring a wellspring of hope...
Precepts of the Lord sustains me and gives me protection...
I behold the Son's face shining with rays of light...
All discouragement gone, and new joy is my consolation....
Son leads me onward to a beautiful oasis teeming with green foliage and flowers of every kind growing from a carpet of grassy meadow.
Deep blue lagoon with waterfall splashing...beckons me for a swim...
'Not yet', I whisper.
In a little while, with childlike abandon, I unstrap my sandals and plunge into the waters of the deep blue lagoon.
I see the myriad types of fresh water fish, different colors & hues swimming alongside of me.
Some are luminescent alighting the space around them.. others glistening in the water, as if sun's rays are sprinkling shimmers on them.
What awe inspiring sight, at what my Creator has given me.
In a new moment, my sight fulfilled and my being made whole, I pulled upward above the waters into a new element.
Fresh air fills my lungs as I breathe it in.
A 'ruah' if you will.
Only my Lord knows this sanctity.
I swam back to shore, only to find set a campfire crackling with the sound of fire wood burning.
I settle near the campfire and to my amazement, my daily meal is ready, prepared for me (a picnic).
After enjoying the fruits of my amazement, a sweet fragrance tickles my senses...
leading me to a new place....
There before me stands, a Garden of roses inviting me to take a seat and drink in its beauty.
Rest embraces me until tomorrow, as I slumber in my Creator's castle.
A new day awaits as we come to an end of a present transformation...
The desert blooms!
