A ring, a promise
My love true as a sunrise

Faith

Faith can grow in drought
Survive doubt and poor soil
Bloom among the weeds

There's Something
 |
| photo from Magpie Tales |
Come for a cup
Stay for the whole pot
Come for some sugar
Stay for the pie
Come with an egg
Stay to hatch some gossip
There's something about this house.
Come to have a word
Stay for a conversation
Come with an agenda
Stay for the laughter
Come with nothing
Stay for dinner and ice cream
There's something about this house.
Come for a minute
Stay for an hour
Come in from the cold
Stay for the warmth
Come as a neighbor
Leave as a friend
There's something about this house.

Off Balance
There's a goal I can't achieve
It's become a true pet peeve
I find I don't have the talents
For asanas that take balance.
My Tree pose starts out standing tall
Then I start to sway and fall
My Tree must be in a storm
Oh what bad, sad yoga form!
When my Eagle tries to soar
I only end up on the floor
I really do give it my best
This Eagle should stay in the nest!
I know Dancer should be graceful
But I wind up with a face full
Of my dirty yoga mat
When my Dancer's pose goes splat!
Some day this goal I hope to meet
Get through a practice on my feet
