The Snowflake Chronicles

August Dawn in Las Vegas
the first light of day
highlights in white dawn gray clouds
undisturbed by wind

dawn in Las Vegas
begins another warm day
morning scattered clouds

Thankful Thursday: August 15, 2013

Today I am thankful for...

the gray morning clouds
transformed by the days first light
into burning coals

a velvet black sky
transformed by the rays of dawn
into joyous blue

Today I am thankful for...

1 the fruit I have in the fridge for me to eat;
2 the beauty of another warm August day;
3 iced coffee to go with my newspaper;
4 the slow transformation from night to day;
5 a couch to sleep on that is more comfortable then my bed;
6 the bird flying past my window;
7 the mourning dove I saw on my garage roof yesterday;
8 the prayers and scriptures revealed by Baha'u'llah;
9 the haiku poetry form;
10 a car to drive

No more coffee!

hanks for the laugh and the information.

I am finally awake enough to drive, so I will go to the bank, to the gas station, and then to the power company. It has taken me three hours, two sweet rolls, and a tall glass of iced coffee to be able to safely take a shower and then drive.

Please wear socks.

Have half the bill paid and the other half is in the works.
