May I Share With You?

I've recently returned to my scrapbooking.  I love to do it and with three daughters and now three granddaughters, I don't know that I'll ever get caught up.  But anyway.  I found a stack  of things that I had printed out over the years, thinking that just possibly I'd be able to use them in my scrapbooks.  What I found was a poem that I had printed back in the fall of 2001.  Since I've had a pretty non-productive day, I'd like to make this my post.  It just seems appropriate, somehow.

Autumn Dreams

The autumn sky

and the rich gold and orange leaves

touch something deep inside my heart

and reminds me

of the wonders of life,

my many reasons to be thankful.

I've been blessed by friends who

 share their hopes and dreams with me.

I have a family who cares

about me.

I've spent many nights

snuggling the one I love,

and have known many passionate kisses

and heartfelt hugs.

I've been moved by the laughter of children,

and the warmth of a smile.

I've been inspired by music,

and have felt the comfort

that comes only from home.

I cherish all of these memories,

and if I could escape to my fondest dreams,

I'd live in a world where

the beauty of autumn never ends,

where nothing except

endless peace and happiness exists.

May autumn touch your heart

reminding you of your many

reasons to be thankful

and allowing you to escape

to a world of fond dreams.
