She focused her eyes on the sunrises

She focused her eyes on the sunrises
Even though every day was not sunny
Nevertheless, it was still there 
even when she couldn’t see it

You take my breath away


Some think I don’t notice things but I do. I notice the slightness of being slighted. While you will never hear a word come from me I saw this Oklahoma sunset and my breath was taken away as always! I remain myself!

Love is the Beauty of the soul

Love is the Beauty of the soul

Gentle on my mind

Gentle on my mind
where you belong
attached to the
heart string
that bares your name

The Wind

the wind makes her presence
and the trees over head
and my mind is just whirling
and thinking ahead
I wonder about you sometimes
as I sit here in the breeze

Reframing memories

dsc_0725 copy

Let us reframe your lose
the memory of your death
let us frame the laughter with
the tears and all the rest
It’s easy to focus on your missing
but when I think of the joy
that lives on in us
Your memory re-framed makes
me smile! Hi Pa!

Hope deferred makes the heart sick

Hope deferred makes the heart sick–let’s give up on the hopeless hope
and offer a prayer instead. 🙂 

Drinkin’ wine from a straw

It’s hard to drink wine
Without spillin’
When I’m
Laid up and chillin’
Sweetie
Pour me a tall glass
Two fingers, maybe three
No make it four
Shoot use your
entire hand
Wait just make it
a 20 oz wine glass
With a straw
I tend to spill
When I’m chillin’

Some days seem endless
