Some small delights in nature That we often take for granted Are ducks on the lake with snowy borders And evergreen trees God has planted.
“I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.” Isaiah 61:10
I delight in having great neighbors Who bake beautiful cookies and share The tasty treats from their kitchen. I delight in those friends over there!

A delight I’ve been waiting for Is the opening of this daffodil bloom. Thank God for the coming of springtime And the flowers I see from this room.
My husband will tell you that nothing Delights him like a bowl of ice cream. His favorite is mocha almond fudge – That’s his idea of a dessert dream!

Doesn’t that look like a fascinating job? I love it that we personally know this great guy!! Job security during the COVID-19 pandemic: The tigers must be fed and cared for. Not just ANYBODY can do that!
Heck, you just throw the meat in his mouth, right? Ah, there’s more to it than that? Uh… ya!! It’s not a job I could handle. How about YOU?
Coronavirus Springtime at DreamWorld Australia Social Distancing!
What’s the most fascinating job you’ve ever had?
Mine was teaching K-8 in a juvenile hall near San Francisco, It was back in the days when kids waiting for foster care placement were incarcerated along with older kids who were jailed because of violent behavior.
But that’s a fascinating story for another day.
Tell me the story of your fascinating job… or one you know about because a friend or family member had it.
I’d love to hear from you. Have a Fabulous Friday. See ya later.
There is a name
for 5-7 5-7 5-7 5-7 5-7-7 poetry.
I just saw it on a blogger’s post
And now I can’t find it.
But I said I would try it.
So, here goes:
TENACITY
Montana in August
In the heat of day, A day under August’s sun, Stood fields of flowers – Springtime flowers so alive – Spreading colored joy. It’s highly unusual To see such a sight. Generally summer’s sun Scorches them early. But this year they testify: God shows us TENACITY!
What’s the name of that poetic form?
Try it… it’s fun!
See ya later!
