A cascade of thoughts

A cascade of thoughts


Dancing in my minds eye is a sight rarely seen.
A loved ones touch
A glance through an open window
Richness cannot be measured by one mans virtues
Lessons lived and learned can't be forgotten
Fond memories of laughter can be heard

A shadow never stands alone
When a tear falls rivers rise
A lonesome dove will never fly
Wind and rain cleanse the soul of a dreamer
Morning dew surrounds a world that listens
When we reach for the hand of a child God is near

To live only for today is to not waste a moment
Sunshine lights the way of new beginnings
Darkness closes the day to rest us
A sharp pencil tells many stories
Weakness is not a scar but a callas
Strength is not given its made and accepted

Parents are the gifts we are given
Children are the presents of love
Waiting never eases the mind
Hope keeps us breathing
Memories surround us like warm blankets
Sisters are kindness and pancakes
Brothers are branches with leaves
