It was one of those days that nothing seemed to be going right.
My mind filled with racing thoughts
going different ways
Questions, questions with seemly no answers
as I pushed through the crowd
of wherever I was going.
Suddenly in my own world
I looked up
and there you were
passing me ever so quickly.
The smile that you gave me took my breath away.
A stranger’s smile in a maddening world.
There was such kindness in that smile of yours.
The warmest of feelings overcame me.
Peace and Joy was brought to my racing heart.
Long after you were gone
I tried to remember
what you looked like.
Were your eyes Blue or Brown?
All that remained in my mind’s eye
was the memory of that very special and endearing smile.
A smile that brought a smile to my own lips.
With a nod of my head
I gave thanks and appreciation
for this gift from a stranger.
Long after this time
a strange thought came to my mind.
Could angels be walking this earth
to remind each of us
that love can be
the gift of the day?
Thank you for the Reblog of my poem. It is great to see you back and that you are well. I have been praying for the Lord to protect you and bring you peace in your financial affairs.
I am in my early seventies. Twenty to twenty-five years between us can make a huge difference in what one accomplishes in their financial lives. We have both worked hard at whatever we did. My wife today is taking full semesters at a local college in Ag courses plus tough on-line courses thru UC of Davis out of California in preoparing for our vineyard on our farm. To date, she has more knowledge than the local farmers of forty plus years in the area. Nothing replaces a continuing education. My wife is also in her early seventies.
Who we are, What we have in territory is because we gave our lives to the Lord and His blessings upon us.
