“We have too many
high-sounding words,
and too few actions
that correspond
with them.”

~ Abigail Adams
“the highest sounding word
that demonstrates the least action:
politician”

investing in the future
the joy of learning

Poem:

inspiration from Mother Nature
kudos to the Great Creator
there is a God today and it is not me
immensely grateful for all that I see
trees dressed out in their summer greens
nest of birds and squirrels complete the scenes
for extra drama add the spanish moss
the cuckoo will let you know who’s boss
tree rings divulge the weathers history
what they saw will always be a mystery
did Johnny Appleseed wear a pan for a hat
the bluebird of happiness stopped for a chitchat
blue skies and sunshine, a perfect day
self-quarantined, behind the window I’ll stay
