Trying to come back

I have been away from the blog all summer. Well not really, I popped on from time to time to read others and every time I opened the blog, there was Johnny as a Header shot and , It simply did me in. I thought about closing the blog. Then I thought ,I would just take some time. On some good advice I changed the header picture. And then I just decided to be patient with myself. I don't know if I will ever get back to writing as prolifically as I did on the blog in the past , but for now I feel ready to come back and try.

Oddly this first post will be again a memorial of sorts. But it is what it is. I was checking horses one morning last week and came upon a beautiful sunrise. I was moved by it to write this poem.

On a cool autumn morning

Just past the dawn

With the sun breaking through

And the mist not yet gone

I open my eyes

To start of day

The webs of the night

Still fading away

In my wondering eyes

Now comes into view

The magical creatures

And loves that I knew

A glimpse, for a flash

And then they are gone

Yet to me it is proof

That the love does live on

In that magical time

At the breaking of day

They visit with me

But are not meant to stay

A fleeting gift

Not one to hold on

Just food for my soul,

and heart to stay strong 

SO there we go. A new post and a new beginning. Lots to talk about from the summer, and hopefully I will do just that. 

For those who are still checking in and following me, thank you. I have missed this community ! 

Stay safe my friends
