Welcome to my newest poetry
and my older ones, too.
As always my mind dances with my heart
striving to create lovely visions & dreamy thoughts to ponder for the readers who enjoy
finer simple things which
are intriguing small pleasures and luxuries that bring joy, contentment, and fulfillment to our lives
as we admire and appreciate
the love radiating from the creator's hands.
They are the things that elevate our experiences
and make everyday moments special.
Incorporating these small moments of luxury
and indulgence can greatly enhance our overall
well-being and happiness.
Life, love, endeavors, emotions, animals, whimsy,
and this and that overflow with blessings from a
God-given cornucopia of His gifts
and passionately prompts the pen to
reflect from within my heart.
