Send Me An Angel

Send Me an Angel

Here I am! In the land of the morning star,
Will you send me an angel?
Wise men said, “Just raise your hand
And reach out… hear the voice from deep inside…
Close your eyes and you will find
Your way out of the dark.”
Here I am – in the land of the morning star.

A blogging friend posted this YouTube video yesterday morning.
Yesterday afternoon I needed a guardian angel to catch me before I fell.
It was a weird accident. I guess most accidents are.
I was just turning to head out of my kitchen and my sandal turned
before I did… and my body lunged sideways, banging my head on the log post.
I thought my guardian angel musta been working overtime elsewhere.

I gashed my head open – about a 2 inch gash – requiring four stitches.
Bob & I spent the afternoon in the emergency room at our local medical center.
So, that’s why I didn’t get this blog posted yesterday.

But, I am okay… and I guess my guardian angel was with me after all.
The CT scan showed no internal brain bleed. Could have been worse!
Keep me in your prayers, will ya? Weird falls are the #1 reason folks my age
end up in the emergency room… and it’s not my favorite place to be!

And beware those sharp turns in your kitchen! Oy Vey!!

The wildflowers were spectacular!

Won’t you click the arrow and come join us?

Yes, we got a little rain before we returned home,
but “Lucille” (our red-headed ATV – Polaris Razor –
who is a Ball), kept us dry!

What are your plans for this week?
In the USA we’ll celebrate Independence Day.
It’s a big deal in a Ennis, MT.
Nearly 6,000 extra folks come into our town
– our population’s only 1,000 –
for our Firehouse pancake breakfast,
4th of July parade,
and rodeo.
I’ll post pictures on Thursday. OK?
If you’re in the area, join us!

You have a blessed week.

Nature’s Music

Nature’s Music

I love discovering poets
whose words inspire and teach me.
Sarika is new to me.
This poem is so beautiful…
I just have to share it with you.
I encourage you to go to her blog,
if you, too, want to be inspired!

Nature’s Music

Euphonious burble
of the cascading water…
Dulcet whisper of
the gentle zephyr…

Drizzling raindrops
in staccato rhythm…
Melodious cadence
of psithurism…

Croaking of the frogs
and chirping of crickets…
Cooing of the doves
and buzzing of insects…

Birds chanting
sacred hymns in their abode…
Nature’s mellifluous music
on the play mode…

The  use of words like:

  • Euphonious
  • burble
  • dulcet
  • zephyr
  • psithurism (I had to look up that one)
  • mellifluous

is magical to me.
Does such useage strike an enchanting chord with you, too?

I think Sarika is a extraordinary writer/poet. I’m happy I found her.
You will be, too! She has only 109 followers so far, but
48 people clicked “like” on this poem… and 19 have commented so far.
That’s a wonderful percentage, don’t you think?

Obviously, she deserves much more readership than that… SO,

Visit her blog at:

… and consider becoming a regular there!

Little Things Mean a Lot

www.youtube.com/watch

I posted the link to this song,”Little Things Mean a Lot” by Kitty Kallen, popular back in the era of Doris Day … because a blogging friend wrote this week about how little things mean a lot. My friend is much too young to have ever heard of Kitty Kallen. Have you? Do you know this song?

The words and sentiment are timeless. Treat yourself by listening. And then tell me, what “little things” would you add to the lyrics?

Has the world changed that much since Kitty Kallen’s day?
