Living The Gift
As an octogenarian I have often asked "Why" as I journeyed through the decades searching for the meaning
of life. "Living the Gift" reflects answers I have found. Hopefully it will bring some clarity to the
answers you also seek.

Celestial delivery
As if sent from the sky.
Light of a birthing star,
A newborn cry.
Celestial delivery
As if sent from the sky.
Light of a birthing star,
A newborn cry.
A gift gently wrapped
In all that love can bestow,
Life's story to unfold
During its journey below.
Daffodil dotted fields thrive
Under the sun-filled sky.
Turbulent winds question
The ever eternal "Why"
Lofty mountains of grandeur
Wearing coats of flurried snow,
Invite the arduous ascent
From a safe spot below.
Shades of the night with
Storms tossing asunder,
Courage to go on
A resilient wonder.
Gratitude and joy
All centered in trust,
Unwavering faith and
Hope an absolute must.
Tribulations buffet
The soul's abode.
Caring arms reach out
To help carry the load.
Age wearied eyes
Ever seeking the light,
The brilliance of Love
Always kept in sight.
Fleeting moments of now
New lessons to learn.
Fully embracing them
For they will never return.
Peace and purpose merge
The quest is now done.
Questions find answers
Knowing we are all one.
