I think I will post a few more poems:
Creasing
Ironing clothes
Is a form of art,
Taking what is
Wrinkled, untidy,
Making it more
Presentable
Appealing to
The world at large.
It is wholly
Pleasing to the
Wearer feeling more
Important, love,
For the gift
Of care generous
Bestowed.
No, ironing clothes
Is not as dramatic
As the fusion of
Thought involved
In original creation,
But it is, nevertheless,
A gentle form of art
Involving sustained
Effort and smiling
Comfortable satisfaction.

Family Resemblance
A singular rose
Blooms on the bush
Defying Fall
With brilliant life
Against the chill.
I am like that ruby gem,
A passing breath
Placed in the immensity
Of the universe
Challenging Death by being.
We are joined,
Related to one another,
Through our abilities
Adding majesty
To the mundaneness.
Both the rose and I
Share a common root
In that God created us
With a purpose
In his scheme of everything.

I finally feel like eating a little bit. Yoy!
Hope everyone is feeling great!

Hey Jo Ann, I like your new format… I have been thinking about changing mine… Hope all is well with your mother. I like the poem about ironing, I feel them same way about sewing. Your friend in Blog, Marilyn
Someone\’s been busy – both here and over on B$ Keep up the good work. Maybe you can give us all some B$ tips sometime (I\’m still a total n00b at it).;-)
Hi Marilyn thanks for stopping by. I appreciate it. Sewing is like that too. I hope all is well with you.Hi Mike, I have been rather busy here, and about Blogshares, I would be glad to give some advice if you really want it. It is not hard really or I would not be doing so well. I use the tools. Glad you stopped by.Smiles,Jo Ann
