September.. pink with promise!
The pink promise of summer fruit hangs over our back garden,
luring bees and nectar seeking birds to the blossoming boughs.
The blackbird sings his huge heart out all day long ,
and the parrots and sparrows steal straw to build their nests.
A Morning Liturgy
Blue wrens are darting about the bushes beneath arching canes of the Banksia rose.
Buds on the peach tree are turning pink with promise.
The sun is shining warm and soothing on my back...
making today's chore of hanging out the washing a real delight!
Next door I can hear the voices of blonde-haired cherubs singing..
"Bo----b the Builder
can we fix it?
Yes we can!"
They have made a shopfront from cardboard boxes on the deck
and are doing their best to sell their wares to their best customer!
"Mum.. would you like to buy something from our shop?"
She plays along of course, much to their relief and enjoyment.
My morning ambles peacefully along ..
a light breeze flutters about the linen and ripples through the growing grass
like the gentle touch of an angel passing by.
Life feels good today....and I am content.
All because you briefly stopped...
When the world is all at odds
And the mind is all at sea
Then cease the useless tedium
And brew a cup of tea.
There is magic in its fragrance,
There is solace in its taste;
And the laden moments vanish
Somehow into space.
The world becomes a lovely thing!
There’s beauty as you’ll see;
All because you briefly stopped
To brew a cup of tea.
And the mind is all at sea
Then cease the useless tedium
And brew a cup of tea.
There is magic in its fragrance,
There is solace in its taste;
And the laden moments vanish
Somehow into space.
The world becomes a lovely thing!
There’s beauty as you’ll see;
All because you briefly stopped
To brew a cup of tea.

Tuesday
All creation praises Him..
All creation praises Him
Who clothes the grass and feeds the fowls of the air
saying to one another
"Who is like our God?"
"And Who have we to praise, besides Him?"
"For He looks upon our lowliness and covers us with His glory - selah!"
Friday
Soft and slow moments..
Spring has sprung!
Our peach and nectarine trees are smothered in soft pink blossoms.

I'm spending a lot of hours in the garden watching delicate petals float about,
and listening to the birds and bees as they get busy for the new season.
It's time to slow down and enjoy the moment...because it will be gone all too quickly and I don't want to miss it!
