Awake, thou wintry earth -
Fling off thy sadness!
Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth
Your ancient gladness!

~ Thomas Blackburn ~
in, "An Easter Hymn"

 

 ... spring is comming dear Friend.
Mother Earth is awaking from
a deep sleep and soon ,
we will see all Her beauty.

"The people I'm furious with
are the women's liberationists.
They keep getting up on soapboxes
and proclaiming
women are brighter than men.
That's true, but it should be kept quiet
or it ruins the whole racket."

- Anita Loos -
 New York Times, 10 February 1974

 

 ... I simply love this quote.
I hope that it makes you smile
With Love

What if you slept?
And what if,
in your sleep, you dreamed?
And what if, in your dream,
you went to heaven
and there plucked a strange
and beautiful flower?
And what if,
when you awoke,
you had the flower in your hand?
Ah, what then?

- Samuel Taylor Coleridge -

 

... I wish you my dear Friend
 a week full of dreams

Good Bye Moon

We have roamed the wild country
We have seen mountains grow from hills
With my brothers and sisters
And now our time has came
The two-legs have come in
And killed all of our prey
We are all so confused
Because what have we done?
The two-legs killed my mother
My brothers and sisters too
The two-legs has got me.
I'll be with my family soon.
Now the two-legs is over me
As I get one last look
At my boloved moon.



... with Love
Ana

in the universe and he'll believe you.
Tell him a bench has wet paint on it
and he'll have to touch to be sure."

Kindness to Animals

Little children, never give
Pain to things that feel and live
Let the gentle robin come
For the crumbs you save at home
As his meat you throw along
He’ll repay you with a song.
Never hurt the timid hare
Peeping from her green grass lair
Let her come and sport and play
On the lawn at close of day.
The little lark goes soaring high
To the bright windows of the sky
Singing as if t'were always spring
And fluttering on an untired wing
Oh! Let him sing his happy song
Nor do these gentle creatures wrong.



... and a blessed week sweet friend
With Love

Let Me Live
The darkness is closing in
Soon I will be gone
Why do I deserve this?
I've done nothing wrong.
I'm thrown in to a crate
I feel so cold and alone
I wonder what's next
The future is unknown.
Hundreds of others around me
Screaming for their parents
I know they will not come
They've been shot protecting us.
Everyday this happens
Innocent animals killed for money
Another day, another kill
It's not the one bit funny.
Do your self a favour
If not for you, for your future kids
Save us endangered animals
Please just let us live!
by Amy Carnes (aged 10)

"The past cannot be changed, the future

is still in our power. Earth is our home

so let us thank Her giving a chance to cure

the wounds we made."

... I wish you a wonderful weekend

A Special World

A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.

Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.

And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.

... with Love

A true Friend

A true friend never walks away
A true friend will always stay
A true friend looks out for you

A true friend tries to make you smile
Tries to replace that frown
They may not always succeed
But they rarely let you down

My arms for you are open
This heart for you does care
And when I think you need me
I'll try to always be there.



... with Love
Ana

Friends

There's nothing as nice
As someone who shares,
Your laughter, your secrets,
Your wishes and cares,
Someone who's there
Through your good times and tears,
Who stays by your side
As your friend through the years.




... with Love

Ana
