Thanks, Clark. I’m not a wordsmith by any deliberate path. More an artesian well of thoughts and words that just bubble up. Julie’s efforts and positive character seem to activate the well more than usual. A muse??
Whatever the case, you have discovered a “gusher” of life giving water and please keep sprinkling all of us and the world around you which is becoming quite parched.
Sometimes I think it’s easier to run and train for a Marathon than to get in touch with that “still small voice”. The modern world has hijacked us. We’re listening to all the wrong sounds…
With wind from the North
Pushing sounds to the South
I don’t hear the train at the crossing
So I’ll brighten my face
Lay the whiskers to waste
And finish up with some flossing
Thanks for your invigorating words this morning. And photograph. Long May You Run. (borrowed from a 70’s album by Stephen Stills and Neil Young)
This is so fun! Thank you Gary. :) Yes flossing! LOL
Love your whimsical sense of humor. Terrific poem Gary. Clever & Funny.

I echo Clark!! Please keep sharing your joy and fun Gary.
Walking toward the cold wind, I ask myself, "Why do I do this? I don't have to do this! "
On the way back to school, wind at my back, I say, "Oh. Yes. This is why I do this!"
I love this Claudette! Yes this is why. :)
Silence speaks to me
Listen to that still small voice
It truly matters…
Powerful, Clark! Thank you and a great reminder for me today.

I think you're right. Practicing this.
I hear you had a successful run and it was worth braving the elements. It always is! XO
Hi Tracy! Yes it was a great time and so happy the group was all for the elements. :) Thinking of you.
Love this!
Thank you Faith. How's David doing? Is he home safe and sound?
