Home from a conference
Now up at the cabin
Peaceful and quiet
Time to reflect
Gentle breeze blowing
Hint of rain in the air
Walk in the woods
Lots of deer tracks
Soft earth cushion
Pine needles and moss
Muffles the footfalls
Amplifies stillness
Stop by the lake
Sun pennies dancing
Frogs plop in the water
Ripples of minnows
Spongey bog carpet
Floral tapestry
Green, gold and amber
Rich palette of color
Like at the conference
Wild variety of peoples
Blending together
Enriching each other
Focus on chastity
True center of friendship
Offering freedom
To be who we are
To be God’s children
Gathered together
Celebrating life
With compassion and mercy
Healing and wholeness
Gifts of God’s Goodness
Offered to everyone
Wrapped up in grace
Thank You Lord Praise You
Gift of Creation
Poured out for all
Who have hearts to receive
Spiritual Sun Pennies
