​Yellow daffodils
Waving in the morning sun
Say welcome to Spring.
 
 
Rainbow over Bay 
Shows all the colors of light
Hope for a new year.
 
 
Fiery skyscape
Red clouds, golden flattening ball
Diverts mind from now.
 
 
Eagerly watching
For the osprey to return
Hope is flying in.
 
 
Silence, once so sweet
Presses upon lonely soul
Music brings solace.

During these hard times, watch for the hearts and crystals that bring a smile, comfort, hope.

Doctor, medic, nurse
Toil selflessly for us
May we care for them.
 

Friends call, say hello
Send me a birthday present
Showing that they care.
 

​Warm body snuggled
Against my sleeping body
Brings heat and comfort.
 

A welcome phone call
How are you? Are you okay?
Just thinking of you.
 

​Scientists garb up
Work tirelessly day and night
Bring us a vaccine.

         Welcome back, Rosie!

​
May those of us fortunate enough to have a roof over our heads and relatively good health remember those who have lost their livelihoods or their health in these hard times. May we practice compassion and show good will to all and help those in need as we are able. Together, we can emerge from these hard times into a renewed society and hope for a better future. Let us help the rainbow  shine through the clouds.

​Thoughts from JM regarding divisive politics, viruses and life's struggles:

History does not judge, it records.

​Empathy is a friendly bridge, antipathy is a hostile ridge.

Moderation can ameliorate, extreme will agitate. 

Struggle and strife are the stuff of life.

Good health is real wealth.

Not knowing is not a virtue.

To become more informed, more reflective and more humane is to become more human.
