Earth, Teach Me

Earth teach me quiet ~ as the grasses are still with new light.
Earth teach me suffering ~ as old stones suffer with memory.
Earth teach me humility ~ as blossoms are humble with beginning.
Earth teach me caring ~ as mothers nurture their young.
Earth teach me courage ~ as the tree that stands alone.
Earth teach me limitation ~ as the ant that crawls on the ground.
Earth teach me freedom ~ as the eagle that soars in the sky.
Earth teach me acceptance ~ as the leaves that die each fall.
Earth teach me renewal ~ as the seed that rises in the spring.
Earth teach me to forget myself ~ as melted snow forgets its life.
Earth teach me to remember kindness ~ as dry fields weep with rain.

Hi, Susie!
Thanks for finding GFM!

Time change happens time twice a year - in the Spring the clocks go forward one hour, in the Fall they go back. Sunday it was time change. Rylee and Jojo don't understand time change. They still think that 6am is 7am and time to get up. They think that 7am is really 8am and time to eat breakfast and of course 4pm is 5pm and time for supper. How do you explain to them that time has changed - I like it as I get an extra hour of sleep in the morning. Rylee starts jumping up on the bed and sitting on me at 6am - he thinks it's time to get up. I try to snuggle down with him and tell him it's not time yet. He sits on me and of course awakens my bladder so I have to get up anyway. So I lay in bed softly calling Jojo's name - hubby is deaf and doesn't hear me - but Jojo does so she starts jumping on hubby to get him up. Whatever works. Happy Tuesday.

Remembrance MSM© (Susie Q)

Ag'ed men stand ramrod straight
From each force they represent
Sailor, Soldier, Airman too
they were the lucky ones
though now they are quite few
A memory scorched into their brains of heroism they did see, horrors
unimaginable for you or for me;
though those that died, no more remain
their memory is a sweet refrain.
The flower of our youth did die
as in a foreign field they lie
or beneath the ocean deep
each poppy petal represents one life
though a million tears did fall.
They gave their lives so we at home
may berate the cost of the economy
So, on the 11 month, of the 11 day
upon the 11 hour
bow your head in gratitude
and wear your poppy red
for all those heroes who ne'er came home
So we could simply say;
"They gave of their tomorrow
so we could have today!"
