GARDEN VISITOR

We had a colourful visitor in the garden on Tuesday

PSALM OF CONTENTMENT

I found this modern prayer in one of my books and it seems appropriate for the current season

O sacred season of Autumn, be my teacher

for I wish to learn the virtue of contentment.

As I gaze upon your full coloured beauty,

I sense all about you

an at-homeness with your amber riches.

(Modern prayer by Edward Hays, USA)

LITTLE WHITE RABBIT SAYS GOODNIGHT

Goodnight

LITTLE WHITE RABBIT VISITS ELLESMERE PORT

Little White Rabbit visited Ellesmere Port today, look what he saw, he even went to the library....

 I am on my way to the library, not far to go

This must be it, I've arrived

I can't see through this window

Look at this new machine, no need for a librarian

A few more poppy wreathes since I was here last

There's the Civic Hall

They've just turned the fountains off, now I can't paddle

Healthy Living Centre, looks interesting

Not many about today, it's not market day

There's a bus going to Liverpool

Another bus and

Oh, another bus, must be the bus station

Cherrybank, that's a nice name, where's the cherries?

Now there's a large tractor

Ambulance station

Fire engine

 

LITTLE WHITE RABBIT PLAYS THE PIANO AGAIN

Little White Rabbit decides to play the piano again, it is a long time since he played, listen carefully and see if you can hear what he is playing.....

"That was hard work"

THE DAY AHEAD - MORNING THOUGHT

Who can tell what a day might bring? Therefore,

gracious God, cause me to live every day as if it

were to be my last, for I know not that it

may be such. Cause me to live now as I shall

wish I had done when I come to die.

(Thomas a Kempis (1379/80-1471), Germany

AT THE GOING DOWN OF THE SUN

"They shall grow not old as we that are left grow old.

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn,

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them"

When you go home, tell them of us and say

"For your tomorrow, we gave our today".
(Kohimah tribute)
