"Welcome To My Blog"

Today is June 7, 2015, so much has happened in the years since my last update here. On February 28,2014 I suffered a Heart Attack. Probably one of scariest events of my life but deeply grateful that the Lord has spared me. So because of Him I am here today and able to give Him praise. We are enjoying the warm months of summer here in Georgia as we watch the spring like weather fade. I hope all are enjoying the blessings of our great God!

"The Dreamer"


A wingless flight through the imagination
escorts the dreamer to heavenly stations
Where the rainbow sunset embraces the skies
and the eagles soar in air currents of flight
In the magical wonders of his mysterious dreams
he phantoms of places that he only see's
Where illusional paradise kissed by the dew
leads the dreamer to quell, every fear he knew
The quiet reflections in his delusional crate
transports him to vista's, where stillness awaits
In visions of grandure, he imagines new world's
where there he's the mistral of regions untold
Those dreamlike excursions, to his whimsical places
grants the dreamer a respite, from realities traces
In his mental libations of intoxicant dreams
the cretin is rescued from life with it's schemes
Then he's suddenly jolted, from his mystical place
by sounds of one screaming, there's deadlines to make
He awakens to realize, he was just having a dream
and the boss isn't pleased by his escaping the scene!
