Revision of: Gratitude:
I clasp in front of me my hands
As I, as a tree, sit silent.
My eyes close, my heart is open,
My cries I hope the Lord will hear.
I bow my head, ponder and listen,
For that still small voice that beckons.
I’m truly seeing as it changes me
The love it’s radiating.
My spirit is not quite as homesick;
My soul is refreshed.
I feel it and I know
He loves me.
I thank Him, my God, for my every blessing
Especially for his voice that touches me.
haha this one isn't necessarily totally true :) the first one is more so :)
Revision of: A Man: Wanted:
Male: 6’2”
Not too brawny, not to scrawny
Bar the beach blonde: brown or black is better.
Big, burly, bushy eyebrows
And bright blue beautiful eyeballs.
Banjo bangin’, obo, bass;
Looks best in Bermudas ,
And banishes badness.
Absolutely brave and bold,
Bona fide priesthood bearer,
Bubbly with babies.
Blue ribbon Boy Scout!
Bows his head, believes in beauty,
Brainy, not crabby, not bald.
Revision of Camping Trip:
Rain, hail, thunder and lightning
2:30 am, unpleasant bathroom trip
Colorful paper cups
Never could keep track of my own
Propane, fire and tree smell
Boy, am I excited to do the laundry
All kinds of food, cooked in the embers
Everything tastes better with dirt on it
Story time at night around the flames
Come on dad, was that supposed to be scary?
Cousins, grandparents, aunts and uncles
They came out all this way just to get bit by mosquitoes?
Brothers, sisters, Mom and Dad
He’s sleeping too close to me! UG! Bad breath!
Green, brown, and flowers
Too much nature! Where’s my iPod?
Sleeping bags, forgotten pillows
This pad isn’t even soft! My neck hurts!
Scripture time, deep in thought
I guess it is good to get away every once in a while…
Beauty, family and God
That is what it’s really all about.
