Rare Moments?

In a complex world

too difficult to understand

in those rare moments

the grains of sand

in the hourglass of time

we may see ourselves

as human, sometimes beautiful

reflecting on life

relevant in a hectic

insular world

striving for excellence

perhaps even perfectionism

sometimes trying

to understand life

all in good time …

Celebrating Hope

Their story in creative song and dance

abandoned, abused children

show their gratitude

for a myriad of mercies

of love and hope

to remind us

of courage and perseverance

and never to despair.

~

Their moving message

touched hearts

and stirred emotions

to reflect on the difference

we can all make

by showing love and giving hope

to these precious lives

because we have the capacity

to love, care, don’t we …

in some way?

The Flautist

Magic flute

Echoing serenades

The joy of love.
