for light, shadow and some supermarket blooms, as the days grow a bit longer
For a fleeting moment we pause and note the sunlight on the sheets as we make the bed, note the warm sun on our cup as we sip tea, or note the fading light on the curtain as we enter the room. And we let out a breath or sigh. Pausing.
~ Elizabeth Searle Lamb

Remember, the time of year
when the future appears
like a blank sheet of paper
a clean calendar, a new chance.
On thick white snow
you vow fresh footprints
then watch them go
with the wind’s hearty gust.
So fill your glass. Here’s to us. Promises
made to be broken, made to last.
~ Jackie Kay

Whatever is beautiful,
Whatever is meaningful,
Whatever brings you happiness…
May it be yours this Holiday Season
and throughout the coming year.
May you take time
to celebrate the quiet miracles
that seek no attention.
May you experience each day as a sacred gift woven
around the heart of wonder.
