If autumn falls silent under the evening snow If sheltered seeds don winter's coat If March winds howl for spring's warmth If budding flowers emit the earth's scent If spring pollinators awaken and take flight If golden rays titillate terra's loam If nature bears burgeoning yields If the impetus for life circles again If thankfulness flows from within If we understand the Creator above then what do we know of love? Love is to have, to hold, to enjoy, and to freely let go. Happy Earth Day FMF: Have and Earth Day




Lovely poem, thanks for sharing.

Yeah, OK, I get the deal,
releasing hold is good, know,
but if we’re going to keep it real,
ain’t no way I’m letting go.
Cancer’s got the upper hand,
and it’s been a crappy week,
but I don’t need the Promised Land
right now, not even one small peek.
I intend to stay and fight,
and to myself be ever true.
It may be dumb but it’s my right,
and exactly what I’m gonna do,
and even though all hope is gone,
I’m right here, so bring it on.

Amen. Though I do struggle to let go and to hold lightly to the treasures He has given to us.
