I have loved looking through my photos for haiku subjects! This was from an evening of sunset viewing to destress after a really difficult day. This sunset was truly a gift.

Library today to get books and a state park pass, then to read at the state beach 15 minutes away. 😎
Does your state loan out state park passes? I love this program!

2. Giving a new favorite book to a former student/now friend 📖💛
3. Having fun writing haiku for #haikuhive @dabbe #haikuaday 🐝💛
4. Finding that my friend had the author sign a book to me before giving it to me 😊
5. Watching our backyard bloom. 🌸🌹🌺

Grimes weaves words into worship. I read her poems as devotionals, as songs of praise, as reflections, and I find myself immersed in worship of our Lord. #christian #poetry @bellabella

That first sentence! This book is excellent — an in-depth look at artists‘ lives and influences in their works.
Three friends lost homes. We didn‘t have to evacuate. Scary, tragic day.

These wind chimes are on our front porch. Do you see the baby hummingbirds stretching their necks over the top of their nest? Look where Mama Hummer built her nest on the top of our chimes! 💛

I‘ve read so much American literature because that‘s what I taught. So many titles here that I should have read!!
My mom told me I‘d never marry because I wouldn‘t learn how to cook so I married a guy who cooks like a chef! ❤️

My husband drove me to the beach to read, because I still can‘t drive due to surgery. We sat above the beach and he fell asleep while I watched the waves and pelicans. I don‘t think either of us read a thing. 😂💛

Used to drive Pacific Coast Hwy from college in Santa Barbara to home in Manhattan Beach area. Who knew its beach would become my “backyard happy place” 💛💛💛

Variation on an earlier haiku. Sort of cheating, I know. 😊
If I ever get to NY, the Library Hotel would be where I‘d like to stay! Anyone been there? #libraryhotel #travel #newyork
Ramsey writes “Sometimes rest is the most courageous work of all.” So true because we‘re always looking for ways to fix, to change, to end difficult situations. Through poems, prayers, and photos, Ramsey invites us to rest, to trust our Shepherd, and to have courage in that resting.
Look into their eyes. Really look. The eyes reveal the joy, the sadness, the layers of life experiences; every life is a story revealed in the eyes. Though some may not see the value of their own stories, those who do can then value the stories of others. When one person sees another with eyes of faith, hope, and love then that one will see the truth of the other's story. Especially when seeing through eyes of love. ⬇️
If you‘ve seen Fleetwood Mac‘s The Dance concert, you know what I‘m trying to capture. The layers of love, hurt, love, longing, hurt, love. Played out on stage. Among all four. But especially between these two.

Ruth, a mother figure to Patty, emphatically tells her, “I love you now. I'll love you forever" and "Even if you forget everything else I want you to always remember that you are a person of value.”

My son‘s first beach trip
I should have known then he would
Move to the Midwest
A 2-haiku day 😊
#5JoysFriday @DebinHawaii
All about reading and #Litsy this week!
Love creating and reading our haiku poems. 🤗
Reading Theo of Golden with my husband. 💛
Finding 3 books from my tbr list on Kindle Unlimited. 😃
Consistently reading now that I‘m not on heavy pain meds all day. 👍
#Litsy, motivation, discovery, friends, and fun, 👏

Think I‘m going to try this. 😊
1. Have to sit up or I‘ll be sleeping 😂 Even reading in bed, I‘m sitting.
2. My husband and I both bought Theo of Golden the same week without realizing it. So we‘re both reading it. I think that this is the first time in our 38 year marriage that this has happened and that we‘re reading the same book at the same time.

@Desha ? 😊
Do you ever find yourself smiling as you read?
Why does this passage make me so happy? Literally smiling “out loud.” 😊💛
#Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView @Lesliereadsalot
So our cozy house has 7 rooms, including the bathroom; the only room that doesn‘t have any books is the bathroom. 😊
I couldn‘t count them or explain — just easier to show bookcases in every room, and yes, I also use shelves inside of a linen closet. 😂
Favorite April reading: tagged 👍
God just gifted me the experience of this poem as I try to rest, reminding me that truly I rest in His care. “Strength is ours for the asking, and with it power from the God of comfort and peace, who paints our tomorrows with light.” #poetrymatters #kneereplacementrecovery #poetryhelpsheal ❤️
