just for today
may i find
peaceful solace
in the pink glow
of sunrise
the gentle breeze
on my face
the soft snore
of my beloved pup
may i find
peaceful solace
in the pink glow
of sunrise
the gentle breeze
on my face
the soft snore
of my beloved pup
just for today
let me bask
in the love
of family
the hope
for tomorrow
the sounds
of spring
on the air
just for today
let me take nothing
for granted
feel blessed
in life's bounty
strive
to live simply
learn
to want less
just for today
just for today
let me bask
in the love

strive
to live simply
learn
to want less
just for today
just for today

If only we could remember that every day instead of spending time worrying about tomorrow..but plans must be made.
so true! definitely all of these things just for today, and then start again with the same tomorrow...
:)
Gotta love those little joys!
Beautiful pictures and beautiful words. I love this post.
Thankyou for a lovely post today.You have an amazing talent.I am not arty in the least!!Give me a wheelbarrow,a spade and compost and I know what to do !!!Or I can whip you up a batch of scones,bicuites or a loaf of bread with no worries!! I love how we are all so different in blog world :0)
Words that we should live by. I feel like I'm wishing my life away, trying to get through some of the days instead of honing in on all the good from each of them! Thanks for the lovely photos and words to remind us.
Julie- what a lovely poem, thank you, I hope you dont mind if I link to it on my blog. Have a lovely 'just for today' and give Presley a scratch for me

Did you take the photos? GORGEOUS! Write the poem? WONDERFUL! I get such inspiration from your site. Such a lovely way to start the day!
thank you ladies for your kind words and encouragement! mu blog is therapy for me and makes me feel both fulfilled and uplifted. it is rewarding to know that it may add a bit of bright inspiration to others as well.
yes, i did take the photos -- last summer. a couple of evenings ago i played with them in photoshop, adding filters and just generally having fun. the poem is mine as well. the words "just for today" had been on my mind for a couple of days and last night the free form verse just kind of poured out of me.
thanks to all of you for your support!
presley sends doggy hugs and kisses!
Joy really is in the little things, isn't it! Lovely poem.
Thank you for your words...I really needed to hear/read them! I have had a tough week and your poem really helped! It was therapy for me as well!!!
take care...your passion is such an inspiration!
