Light from Light

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person.
Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.

Valentines Day 2008

Happy Valentines Day! I pray you have a wonderful day filled with Love and kindness from the person that you most cherish. I have included a poem that in inspiring and speaks to the senses that I often talk about. This poem is composed by Nicholas Gordon.

Many Happy Returns of the Day!





LOVE COMES THROUGH THE EYES THAT SEE



Love comes through the eyes that see

And through the ears that hear,

For people are quite beautiful,

And words make feelings clear.


Love comes through the hands that touch

With unabashed affection,

For only skin-to-skin can love

Maintain its true direction.


Love comes through the tastes and smells

Of fresh and well-cooked food,

For in the gift of nourishment

Is much else that is good.


But though love comes through senses five,

Love comes from the heart,

For there resides the greater love

Of which ours is a part.
