Thursday; again...


I think today I need some poetry...



Changing Time

THE cloud looked in at the window,
And said to the day, 'Be dark!'
And the roguish rain tapped hard on the pane,
To stifle the song of the lark.
The wind sprang up in the tree tops
And shrieked with a voice of death,
But the rough-voiced breeze, that shook the trees,
Was touched with a violet's breath. 
Paul Laurence Dunbar

  1. At first the poem seems sad, but then if you can end with the breath of violets, all is right.

  3. Hello again. I have watched the video before. I love eating my homegrown vegetables and the main reason I do is so that I know I am getting the vitamins and minerals my body needs to stay healthy. You might be interested in using this website, www.nutrimirror.com, it is free and I know the people that run the site. I use it to find out just how much of my nutrients are coming from the foods you eat. On most days I can get all of them through food alone, calcium can be tough though and I do often use a supplement for that.

    Hoping you are having a wonderful day!
