Peace for Those Who Mourn

I could not stay another day,

To Love, to Laugh, to Work or Play;

Tasks left undone must stay that way.

And if my parting has left a void,

Then fill it with Remembered Joy.

An Irish Prayer

Epitaph

"Affliction sore long time, Physicians art was vain, Till God did please to give, And free her from her pain."

Memorial Day

Here in the USA we will be observing Memorial Day weekend in just a few days. For many, it is a time to remember our fallen soldiers. For others, it is a day for planting flowers at the graveside of loved ones who have passed. Growing up, our parents drove us to local cemeteries and pointed out the headstones of family members who had, in many cases, passed long before we were born.  Today's postings salute those who preserved our freedom and, in some small way, remember the children taken before they had a chance to live.

Enjoying an Evening Swim

It's a lovely spring night. Enjoy it, wherever you are.

Porcelain Petals

Another lovely example of art in nature. Dogwood is one of my favorites.

Hosta Art

I absolutely love the natural lines in these leaves - the way that nature creates art.

Blossom Perspective

There is too much beauty in the world to worry about the ugliness today.

River's Edge

Not entirely sure, but this seems to be some sort of bamboo. Quite invasive at the river's edge.

One Love

I find it encouraging that young people still believe in Peace. We need more of that shit spread around.

Awesome Stonework Siding

Per the Roman Numerals, this was completed in 1974.  Imagine the time and care that went into picking and placing all of those stones.

Pink Apple Blossoms

Not so Ancient History

If so many people once turned to God for answers that they required such an ostentatious church, where do they seek guidance now?

Open Windows

This factory has been abandoned for years.  I find it odd that they left so many windows opened.  Maybe it was last used on a hot, summer day.
