December Hurries Now — Thursday, December 18, 2025

(Day is breaking!)

Faster and Faster now—quickening like a spring melt stream

I must hurry and get my Christmas food under control, and finish cleaning my house….I have family coming.  All the girls and their partners, our two grandchildren serving in the military, and Tally, who is still at home, will be here.   Plus one more — Blade is bringing his girl—Karla!

It’s all so exciting!  And I’m feeling a tad rushed….and a little on the old side. 🙂

Merry Christmas, MY Friends—time is moving forward!

Look at this most amazing photo of the sun starting to rise!  The cloud was pink, the sky blue, and the sun a rim under the clouds.

What a gift!

Sometimes My Throat Catches — Thursday, March 7, 2024

When I see the fleeting beauty of sun-colored clouds or the golden light of the morning or evening sun

When the golden sunlight picks up the Canada Geese or the Sandhill Cranes wings flash through the clouds or the colors of their feathers as they feed in the fields

As the sun sets ever so gradually, yet swiftly, It feels like the day only lasts for a short time, then winks out to begin again the next day.

From my world to your heart,

Linda

Contrast —- Sunday, August 28, 2022

The Contrast of Evening Sun on showers in the canyons

The very strong line of shadow and light

Night rising up on the land–defining the last light in the sky

Big fat rain clouds—- sunlight through the old apricot tree

Sunrise dressing the earth with Morning

Dusk filled with brilliance

Even the wind, in all its amazing power; lifting the soil into the air— gifts us with a refreshing of sorts.

Each and every moment of our full 24-hour day gives us so much—so many things of contrast, so many types of varying gifts they are too numerous to count.

From my world to your heart,

I Love Early Morning —- Tuesday, December 7, 2021

I love watching the sun come up

The skylines seem to  shimmer

The earth is black, the weeds streaking the edges of the earth

While the fire of the rising sun colors everything in its path.

The air seems to drift with the glowing sky

Sounds carry further in the early morning air

The God(s) have given us marvelous tools to live this life we live.

The patches of shadow, are always lit from above

The darkness fading into light.

The magic of a new, new day!

From my world to your heart,

Linda

 

For Just a Moment the Sun Seems to be Platinum Instead of Sheaves of Gold—Tuesday, March 16, 2021

Now that the time has changed, we are back to getting up in the dark.

And, even though, winter still whispers in the cold and frozen air.

Daylight starts slipping into night, like a dream, or more like a memory of a dream.

Making one think the Platinum light has stolen away—- that golden glimmer of dawn.

But—not for long and the gentle promise of daylight fills the land.

Work has begun.

A Delicious Soothing Peace of Morning Sunlight —- Thursday, February 11, 2021

On the way to do the early morning chores,

The soothing, serene, and eternal

Waking of the sun lifts hearts, minds, and souls; leaving me feeling light-headed and possibly able to float in the glided gossamer air.

From my world to your heart,

Linda

As Winter Wears On — Thursday, January 21, 2021

The sunrise starts a small bit earlier

And earlier.

The day lengthening and brightening

Saying, Wake-Up it’s a Beautiful Day!

The God(s) Do Talk to Us —- Monday, June 15, 2020

Your God, My God, and Everyone’s God

Talks to us.

Sometimes they talk in signs

Sometimes writing in the heavens

Sometimes sending the sun to chase away the shadows

Often times the messages are so loud and clear

We can not hear or see

We are looking for an answer

That Crashes like a Symbol!  Something that SHOUTS!

But the answers are always there…

The answers filter into our thoughts,

Subtle, but profound

It’s up to us to listen—

With our souls.

If we truly and honestly want an answer.

From my world to your heart,

Linda

 

Clacking Trees —Tuesday, December 10, 2019

Winter brings an interesting phenomenon

Things which are unusual, at best, seem to occur

With a slight more bit of frequency

Winter has it’s own glimmering twilight, so different

from Spring,

or Summer,

or Fall

The colors are much different, filled with lavender instead of hot oranges

And the trees sigh, instead of sing—swaying and clacking in the cold.

From my world to your heart,

Linda
