My Way Of Life
Sunday morning coming down and I awake
Sitting with my coffee,I watch the new day break
I watch the hummingbird feed from the flower
As my world wakes up,hour to hour
It seems dailey something comes to life,some decline
Still it is heaven in this world of mine
Then think how soon,I have to face the fall
When that dreaded first frost comes to call
From that moment on, I dream about spring
And about the new life it will bring
Winter will come before you know
The greenhouse filled, with things to grow
Some plants will face defeat
As first I complain of the cold,then the heat
Guess I should get up,and put my cup away
Time to live,not just think about my day
Seems my heaven doesn't just come to be
This piece of heaven demands much of me

Beautifully written, Freespirit!
My God, how I would love to be in your neck of the woods! Sounds like you've found paradise on earth.
I live in the city and can only visit the woods on my days off. I love to hike on the trails, and fish, and camp, but I'm not a hunter...I don't believe in killing anything and would only do so if it were a matter of survival.
Wonderful poem, Gloria! Very descriptive...very peaceful. I can easily picture it all.
Your friend...

I can't think of anything I want or need that isn't here in my woods.Peace,contentment,love of life,dreams, fulfillment.It supplies food for
nourishment,food for thought.In younger year lived and worked in cities coast to coast always dreaming of being able to live my life as I live it now.Thanks for taking the time to read and comment tj.
