Time is Now

Time Is Now
 
Waves of tears pour out of the heavens
Spattering the flowers with its droplets of sadness
Grief and frustration spreading making for obvious omens
For each day the world get closer to its ending madness
Only so much to give without giving something back
 
Floods where it was dry, rain forest with no rain
Earth sends it messages with quakes and twisters
The ground splits open from the Baltic to the Ukraine.
Listen everyone! Open your ears my brothers and sisters
Only so much to give without giving something back
 
The time is at hand, no minutes to lose
Make it right with Mother Nature; don’t allow her to be ignored
Don’t worry about a future, now is the time
you must choose Make the changes today without needing an award
Only so much to give without giving something back

Instagram and twitter were now available allowing more opportunity to contact with the world using different media. "Facebook is a popular free social networking website that allows registered users to create profiles, up...

Staying Home for CORVID19

All in all we are handling the stay at home reasonably well. It is not how I expected my first few months of being retired playing out. 2020 has not been a good year so far, with my mother in law passing away in January and now the CORVID19 stay at home orders. So we try to get out of the house every couple days even if its just to run to the post office or to get a couple things from the store. Maggie and I take a walk every couple of days, it/'s good for us to get out. I am spending some time in the backyard working on my gardens and pond. I thought I would share some of my recent garden pictures in this blog: Most of these flowers are around the pond which has come to life this spring.So even when life seems to be challenging the flowers continue to grow and flourish. Maybe we need to be more like the flower and bloom. Until next time... Roger
