May the trail upon which you tread
From light of life
To dark of dead
Reward your days a worthy prize
Faith, hope and love
Forever wise

Poem
A clock is wound
Round and around
To tell the time of day
Asleep at night
That we may work
To make the time to play

Born in 1896 and 1909, my grandfathers were hard-working farmers, and, in my youth, each shared with me the following famous saying…one of my favorites!
“A farting horse never tires. A man that farts is the man to hire.”

After reading “Just Simple Pleasures for Today“, written by a dear friend & southern poetess, Kym Gordon Moore – wherein she shares her positivity with a morning cup of gratitude – I was inspired to write this short poem in response…
From a fountain that flows
Streaming words which are wise
Her heartfelt reflections
Penned with love, no surprise

Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So, love the people who treat you right, forgive the ones who don’t and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said it’d be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
Dr. Suess
