An Ode to Peace – December 2013
This ode
is quite different from those in the past,
A single topic
instead of the normal ‘year in review’ blast.
I’m trying to push Peace as often
as I can in life, it seems a good thing to do,
Whether it is in a bit of jewelry,
how I vote, a sign on the wall, or in this note to you.
Many concerning
events around the globe, or in the lives of friends, cause me to reflect,
And
appreciate that my retirement life is, most days, filled with Peace and close
to perfect.
Dad and Ev enjoy a quiet life most
days, and no major health issues as their ages they cheat,
They look forward to weekends like
most of us, finding a bit more Peace and quiet, and that is treat.
A great-great niece born in
November, with both Mom and baby healthy and happy, is a load off my mind,
One more added to the family is a
treat, although for a new Mom, Peacefulness might be hard to find.
And more
babies are coming, two more ‘greats’ are expected in the coming year,
The
addition of these babies of my peaceful life will be held very dear.
Enjoying
Mother Nature’s Peace and Grace through the lens of my camera I love,
Many
photos of birds and flowers and more are something I am proud of.
Continuing to appreciate the
seasons with the extreme temperatures that this Wisconsin
climate holds,
Is some days challenging but
overall, the peacefulness & beauty of this state is something to behold.
So, I hope that this holiday season
finds you enjoying whatever moments of Peace you can find,
I’ll be thinking of you and wishing
only the best, my family and friends are never far from my mind.
So, as we look forward to a
prosperous new year and as 2013 comes to a close,
My wish for you is that you find a
few Peaceful moments in each of your days, and so ends my prose.
