SEPTEMBER

Summer is winding down:
Evening comes sooner;
Preparations for winter happen in earnest;
Teachers and students are back at the ol’ grind!
Everybody knows that
Months will be colder for a while;
Blizzards and rainstorms will brew,
Enveloping the world in white blankets,
Running over into streets.

Soon enough, however,
Everything will start to awaken,
Perfuming the air,
Touching the ground with warmth,
Easing miserable cold.
march wind and spring rain will
Bring fresh hope and delight;
Ever moving closer to
Return of summer.

I am like a rich tapestry, full of texture and color. I'm a musician, composer, poet, gardener, homemaker and friend. I worked as anLCSW for 22 years; as a socialworker for 26 years all told. Before that, I was a rehabilitation teacher. My passion is to come alongside others; to empower and bless them. That is why you will find plenty of variety in my blog. Two very important things to know about me is that I am a life-long learner - An explorer and sojourner. I also belong to the Lord Jesus...now, before you get tweeked out: I am not saying I am "religious." There is a huge difference between all of the rules and empty practice that often gets associated with Christianity and the kind of life that comes from being in a relationship with the loving God. May you find encouragement, inspiration, insight, good ideas and a laugh or two as you read my posts and comments. View more posts
