Yellow Sky It's morning and a yellow sky Lights up the east and draws the eye, To where the sun will soon appear. The songs of all the birds I hear, Seem jubilant and joyful too, At coming through the night to view Another sunrise and to sing Of happy things the day will bring. Then as the color starts to grow, The world takes on a golden glow, That seems intense and quite unreal. I look around me and I feel This day is different from the rest And by the time it paints the west, I will have savored every hour And brought some secret dream to flower. With heart-felt gratitude, I pray, To God who gave this lovely day! Betty Lou Hebert Published by Drury's Publishing 1996 [This message has been edited by Trillium (06-02-2002 01:39 PM).] |

Lovely Betty. To think some people go through life without even noticing all the beauty around. You are not one of them. Love, Joyce |

Amen! and that it is, my dear, a wonderful day. There are so many chores that need to be done in my yard, and yet I find myself only wanting to savor the flavor of this day's beauty and peace. Your poem is lovely and lyrical. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

  (smiles) Awwwwwww, I love this, sweet friend, it too saddens me to see so many not take the time to each day feel the simple beauties and joys of life everyday! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderfully heartfelt, sweet friend, God Bless You, may we always cherish the smiles of every day he gives us, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Betty, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Joyce: Thanks for your nice comments. I have to get up at 5:00 every morning and I always step outside for a few minutes to enjoy the freshness and beauty of approaching day. I usually go back to bed for a couple of hours afterwards, but my son needs medication at that time. Betty Lou Hebert |

We should all do that every day. Unfortunately we let the rigors of the day get in our way. Works like this serve to remind us and for that I thank you Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
