The Midday Sun. The clock strike twelve Raging sun on wet foreheads Time to stop and reflect Tools of trade aside for a few moments Fields will not disappear The sweat will keep on oozing Hands will still hurt at end of day The midday sun signifies rest Time to reflect, time to pray Take a little time each day All will be well in the end For the midday sun means The presence of God at rest Besides you for comfort. Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |

This is a wonderful reminder to stop and refresh ourselves. Thank you for this one. "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey." Laurie Lee |

No matter how hard or hot the day is taking a break and conversing with God can revive us. Enjoyed this very much! |

Daniel, I like the thoughts in this. Nicely said. Poeminister "The soul can split the sky in two, And let the face of God shine through." ~Millay |

Sunshine, Inot, Kathleen, and Poeminister, Thank you all so very much, there comes a time when we do need to stop and reflect on ourselves and our surroundings. Taking a break to appreciate the presence of God is most important. Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |
