This tree,
this tree,
this mighty oak,
stands so proudly
on crest of hill.

Branch enfolds
to embrace,
tiny sparrows
home and hearth.

Sheltering all
those who come,
with open arms,
and shaded rest.

Giving freely,
her beauty thus,
in harmony
with earth
and sky.

His perfect Will
her soul delight.
Create in me
this one desire.


Belief is a truth held in the mind; faith is a fire in the heart.

Joseph Fort Newton

Dear Ellie,
  I always marvel at your ability and willingness to learn & share lessons from the ordinary-thus lending to the great and exraordinary. To be so attuned is a great blessing for yourself, and as you share it for many more as well!

No Better Place do I know
Than where Hearts knit as
one,
For in that grand
experience,
The Better ALL become.

God Bless us All!!!
