In These Hands

In these hands

Is held the future,

Made of blooms

That kept their oath.

In these hands

Is held the fruit of

Sun’s long labor,

Fed by rain

And nature’s growth.

In these hands

Is cupped the sweet taste

Of confection,

And the marvel

That is bounty

And is beauty

And is both.

A Leaf to Life

As Fall arrives and with it change

May the color of your life enrich.

As trees turn green to yellow

orange

purple

red

May your life rainbow full ahead.

As weather shifts from

heat to cool

May your life find new pace

warm place.

As forests whisper on the wind

leaf to leaf in passing flow

May your path unfold

and all potential show.

As new years open

apples dipped

May your life’s sweetness grow.

As blessings swirl

In honey and in harvest’s glow

May your life plenty

know.
