WHISPERS...

Whispers of love deep
in the still darkness of night..
Whispers that are tender,
 purposeful, its the fuel that ignites..

 Soft sweet words can heighten,
 calms the emaciated spirit..
 Quietly spoken with kindness,
 it nourishes the soul to fill it...

 Words whispered low with
 each early morning prayer..
 Unites, connects, whispers
 lifts the spirit, eliminates despair..

 Whispers with laughter chastens
 loneliness, solitude and tears..
The calming tone breaks silence,
 it's sadness and devastating fears..

 A whisper reverberates like
an echo shouting across a canyon..
 It wakens the darkness of silence
 in a heart of a forgotten companion..

 Whispers brings joy.. its context
 gladdens, soothes and restores ..
To it's recipient , a whispered
 word brightens like a flaming torch..

 Whisper kindness, love and joy
 to those who need to hear your voice..
 These whispered words are like rain in the desert..
They revitalize, restore, rejoice!!

In the midst of turmoil, happiness and life.. There is a poet interpreting with context. Patsy McNutt Morgan 07/20/13

MY SIMPLE CORNER OF THE WORLD...

Sitting in my swing , feeling the tender 

caress of the hot summers breeze...

Another day has nestled comfortably 

into this perfectly warm mid-July eve..

Watching the white puffs of clouds glide 

magically, sensuously across the tinted sky...

Listening to the wind through the trees and the 

wind chimes clink and tinkle,  while a quail cries..

The dogs pant furiously after chasing dragon

 flies that dart and fly, as if playing tag..

Feverishly they run and jump stealthily, 

artfully high, to attempt, just once, to catch, to snag..

I look upon  my radiant flowering bush in full bloom,  

as the dark carpet of green grass lifts me away... 

Away from the hum drum of a soon forgotten day..

I  visually see my simple beautiful 

corner of the world around me..

One by one my worries and burdens are lifted

as I release them into the evening breeze!!

Gone is the torment of gloom, 

the sadness,  the burdens ..

God graciously takes them, 

for this I am certain..

Thank you Lord,

W O R D ...

Don't  talk in tones that are harsh,  loud and abrasive..

Don't curse with the language that's brutely invasive..

Curb the names that are full of profanity and disgrace ..

Stop demeaning, it's  bad,  like slap in the face..

Take a walk ,  take a drive , get out of the house..

 Cool down, calm down, stop being a louse..

Stop,  think,  remember you have children or a child to consider..

They  hear this abuse, your words should be tender!

Show love , not hate .. Forgive and be forgiven..

Your marriage is sacred, it's how you should start living..

It's not all about YOU now, you have to remember..

Your partners together, so much to consider ..

It's hard work to remember when your caught up in that moment..

Remember these words and try hard .. Don't condone it!!

My Love and Prayers,

Your loving Mother

I WONDER AT THE END OF THE DAY...

At the end of the day I wonder if
. I wonder if I was short, uncaring or brief..

 At the end of the day, did I dry a tear?
I wonder if I carried a burden, did I care?

 I wonder at the end of the day, was I kind?
Did I lift a spirit, did my smile illuminate , shine?

 At the end of the day, did I give instead of take?
 Did I share, play fair, pick the last one first..
Simply give that person a fair shake?

 I wonder at the end of the day,
 did I hug a little tighter,  hold a hand a little longer..
Wink instead of stare, acknowledge a little fonder ?

 I wonder at the end of the day, did I forgive with all my heart?
Did I go out of my way to speak love to a heart that was broken apart?

 At the end of the day, did I give with all my being?
 Did I really sacrifice, did I open my soul to release
God's perfect love, so others could see Him?

 So it is at the end of this day, as it is everyday..
I wonder! Did I do enough at the end of yet another day?

THE ELOQUENCE OF A SUMMERS EVE....

The warmth lingers from the 

long summers day.. 

Still fragrant air permeates from 

each petal of a  flower bouquet..

The day succumbs to the 

evening soft gentle light..

Long  shadows drift silently, 

blissfully into the  night..

Perpetual tender thoughts

rule in this night air..

Graceful  sweet images

float effortless without a care..

In this brief moment of  stillness

with the eloquence of this  evening..

Life's bitterness is a faded memory 

 by the beauty that surrounds me..

Simple serenity felt 

with  grace and light..

As I quietly gaze 

at the last evening rays

tonight...

Happy Independence Day to you, my friend..

Happiness and joy to you, I lovingly send..

Living in the land of the free and home of the brave..

Knowing and reflecting on those who fought and gave..

Gave their lives, their service to this  great country ..

May we cherish this freedom and independence every day..
