What is Good


Let us open our eyes to our surroundings.

We are not alone; to live a life of beauty,

accepting their needs as ours.

This is Love!

 

The more we open our eyes to our surroundings,    

we are filled with the glory of nature;

we are filled with questions that after years

gives rise to wisdom; wisdom that only comes

from our God of Love.

 

We open our eye to our wonderful surroundings

and see the glory of God’s beautiful creation;

we try to help our struggling neighbors;

we search for answers to questions that seem

unanswerable, but prayer and hard work

brings community together in God’s Love.

 

This is What is Good!

I am a retired high school and college professor. The last 10 years of my teaching was as a college professor of literature and writing. I have self-published one book of prayers and meditations and am preparing another book of poetic odes to faith and love. I am truly honored to be welcomed into this group.
