Enjoy the ocean breezes and get your fill of sun,

Relax and have some fun . . .

In every single way.

The Old Woman

As a white Candle
In a holy place
So is the beauty
Of an aged face

As the spent radiance
Of the winter sun,
So is a woman
With her travail done

Her brood gone from her
And her thoughts as still
As the waters
Under a ruined mill

Unearned

While meditating on the past
There comes to me the thought
Of all the blessings that are mine
How few I’ve really bought.
How weak my efforts for them all
How little have I paid,
How small compared with actual worth,
The sacrifice I’ve made.

The gift of sight that I may see
The grass and flowers and trees,
The ear to hear the songs of birds,
And humming of the bees.
The sense of smell that I may know
The sweetness of the rose,
The strength to walk and mingle here,
With everything that grows.

The gift of friends of sterling worth
Whose hearts are open wide
Who keep their faith and trust in me
Whatever may betide.
For helping hands in time of need
And cheers to meet the test
And kindly words that spur me on,
To do my level best.

For pleasures here and pleasures there,
Wherever I may roam
But most of all the sweetest too,
The blessing of a home,
The greatest gift of all to me
Of gifts I can’t repay,
And so the least that I can do,
Is, thank the Lord today.

(Frank C. Nelson)
