Another Gentle Morning
Another gentle morning unfolds;
I wipe the sleep from my eyes and greet the day.
"Good morning, sunshine! The earth says hello."
I open my arms for another day of loving.
Winter Grace
Silently the snow falls on Moscow, Idaho,
Feathering the Idahoan heart with wonder and cheer;
Out pop the spirits of hope, love and goodwill,
Singing songs of grace and peace.
"Dashing through the snow,
with one horse eating hay...."
Soubhiye'
Softly, softly the sound of silence.
Soubhiye' is that time in the morning
when no one else is awake;
Only you.
It's such a lovely time to quietly gather your thoughts
without interruption, without purpose and without deadlines.
Soubhiye' is that time in the morning when the rest of world still sleeps
And you have a refreshing and peaceful moment to yourself--
Letting your mind wander wherever and land wherever
over that warming cuppa coffee or tea.
Who knows what inspiring or renewing path will
reveal itself during this golden time of renewal.
Gift yourself with soubhiye' daily.
Wishing you gentle mornings and Winter grace.
