Things are looking up.
When soul is lemon-squeezed
and gutter-balled,
where else can it go?
When spirit is avalanche-prone,
barreling spiral of mountain-top madness
plunging to certain death in
cataclysmic fury,
getting up is
supreme progress!
When bottom is a taste in the teeth
and a grit in the face,
raising head to heaven
is elevation,
promotion,
accession to the Throne.
Meanwhile, Melody Muses... 
Love you new additions Melody! Thanks for sharing with us!
Thank you Glenda! 🙂
How, how, how do you continue to write such wonderful interpretations? Fantastic. And, it is wonderful for me that you chose to write about sunflowers – one of my Dad’s favorite flower to grow.
I write about each type of flower in turn, as they erupt in my garden. It is sunflower season, so expect more in the days ahead! It is a lovely legacy to remember a father who loved God’s creation so much..
Again – you are SO incredibly talented. Do you sing, too?
Yep – write music and perform for my church. But there are a LOT of things I CAN’T do – so it all evens out in the wash! 🙂
WOW and ooooh, Melody–speaks right to the “real” of me today. God bless you–love, Caddo
