Easter 2011

A beautiful day, we had a brunch and egg hunt it was fun having the kids running about they are getting so big. I tried a new way to do the eggs for eggs Benedict I cracked them into a baking dish had the oven at 450 and slowly added boiling water to the egg. pricked each yoke and covered them, then put them in the oven and baked for just short of 20min it worked great I was able to poach 24 eggs all at once. I did use two baking dish's but it worked and all the eggs were eaten.....I am hoping to have pictures from my kids to post. Karol and her girls made a bunny cake and that was real good. All in all it was a great day but the old guy and I fell into our chairs when they left and napped the rest of the day. Having all the kids and thier kids makes me feel old. So Happy Easter everybody Be Happy

Leaves of God Fall 2009

My seasons have flown by so fast
I can hardly remember the details of my budding
I bloomed far too early forced by natures call
The flower of my youth stolen
My spring lost

I could not hold my bloom
As fruit required all my time
That season of summer went so fast
Consumed by my fruit youth slipped away
Never to swing freely in the warm summers breeze
I held fast lest my fruit should fall

Hot summer days turn to chilly nights
My fruit now ripe hear falls call
They release to face their own unknown
I watch as they fall free
My branches lift from their weight
I stand-alone the crisp air begins to blow

Indian summer comes with new love
I bask in the crisp sun light
My beauty is seen and shared
With the bloom of crimson leaves
My golden years begin

Too soon, I see my skin begin to shrivel
Youths golden beauty slips into grey
My hold on the tree of life seems futile
The frost of winter comes so fast
I hold tight lest I fall

So many leaves are falling
I watch as they let go one by one
My winter is here my time has come
The cold ground awaits my fall

The snows of winter cover my memory
Yet the family tree still stands
Spring will come
New leaves will unfold
The seasons of life begins again
