One Year

Memories & Anniversary

Do you value your memories?
Those moments when something special happened
and you look back later and say, "Yes, I remember."




















I am in such a state this week as I recall 

the beginning of this Blog on April 23, 2014.

I am grateful to you if you have clicked on

to any of my 157 posts--my goal is always

to be worthy of your time.

Some notable events (in the past) on this day: 

Robert Penn Warren, the First Poet Laureate of the
U.S. was born in 1905.
Pope Benedict XVI was installed in Rome as the leader of
the Roman Catholic Church.
Also, NASA launched the Hubble Space Telescope (HST).
Here is an image it captured. . . 
















Do yourself a good turn and go to the Hubble site--
out of this world images.


Thanks be to God for all things great and small 

especially our memories.

The Bunny Comes

We are still in Easter Season,
in the bunny world
carrot strips are called for . . .



















At Rock Creek one special person
(bless his heart) whistles and the bunnies 
know to come out of hiding for dinner.

And then there are those talented
artists who gift you a bunny and
carrot forever. All you can do
is admire the details and say,
 




















         "Thank you, Rosalind !"

On this day as we celebrate the

Faith and stories of the Irish,

We thank them also for lighting 

our world with song. . . sing along.



Limerick You’re My Lady by Denis Allen


CHORUS
Limerick You're My Lady
your Shannon waters tears of joy that flows
the beauty that surrounds you
I think about you love where e're I go
While waking in the arms of distant waters
a new day finds me far away from home
and Limerick You're My Lady
the one true love that I have ever known

The days when you and I spent endless days of fun
in winter snows and summer's golden sun
we fished in silver streams, the fabric of my dreams
was fashioned by your loveliness
so now I have to say

CHORUS

A gift that time has made to travelers on their way
seeking out the beauty of our land
a shrine where children play
the bells ring out to say
that's God that we're alive to see the freedom of each day

CHORUS

May you have blessings, pleasures, friends
To gladden all life's way . . .
Today and every day
