Maple syrup on
pancakes made with berries and -
      surprise - banana!

Ok - the blueberries were fine, the bananas not so successful - stuck to the spatula when I flipped them, left dents in the pancakes.

 One small bunny sits

watching on one large green lawn -

          alone in the world?

                    or

         are we all alone?

 Ok - I don't know where this is going.  Is the bunny really alone or does it (he/she) have bunny friends and family?  I have friends and family that I feel close to - are there ways that I am really alone and maybe don't even realize it?

Anyway - the bunny was really cute.  I hope it (she/he) has friends or family to curl up with tonight! 

 God,

it is hard to hear or read your words to Elijah on Mt Horeb -

  "Whoever escapes from the sword of Hazael, Jehu shall kill, 

  and whoever escapes from the sword of Jehu, Elisha shall kill."

I have to believe that Elijah must have misheard or

 or that something got twisted as the story got told.

I go to bed tonight listening instead to the Psalmist -

  "Steadfast love and faithfulness will meet; 

  righteousness and peace will kiss each other.

  Faithfulness will spring up from the ground, 

  and righteousness will look down from the sky.

  The LORD will give what is good, 

  and our land will yield its increase.

  Righteousness will go before him 

  and will make a path for his steps"

and praying that somehow during the night

love and peace and faithfulness and righteousness

will have become so entwined in our world

that everyone will say "This is indeed a new day,

and it is good."

And if my tomato plants could yield just a few more

that would be great too.

Thank you, God. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 Scheduling improv -
'"The Nightlife" - Monday at 10.' (1)
      Duke's Black, Browns, and Beige 

(1) AM!
Ok - I had to fudge this a bit to make it fit. It was a radio promo for a replay of a late night show for the next morning. 

Breeze sets leaves humming,

fluffy clouds drift in blue sky -

       me - I lie back, watch.

Sun has gone down now,
put food away, eat supper '
       where has today gone?

Sliced ham fried with eggs,

blueberry muffins toasted -

       breakfast for supper!
