“Before attempting to change God's heart, first try changing your own.”

“December is a bewitching month.
The grey of cold teases
to explode into something worthwhile,
into a dream of cold,
a starlight shower you can taste,
a cold that does not chill.

I've lost my memory
of my first snow--
did I gasp at a field of white?
Or scream at the freeze
untill my cheeks reddened?

The crunch underfoot is satisfying
and the thrill of virgin snow
near leaves.”
― Joseph Coelho, A Year of Nature Poems

“When everyone lives only for self, life doesn't work.”
― Erika Mathews, Promise's Prayer

“Strawberries.” Willa slid those eyes shut now and loosed a blissful sigh. “If there are more tomorrow, save me one. I saw some in the village, but they were too dear.”
― Roseanna M. White, A Name Unknown
