A Prayer in Spring

Robert Frost (1915)

Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.

Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.

And make us happy in the darting bird
That suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
And off a blossom in mid air stands still.

For this is love and nothing else is love,
The which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far ends He will,
But which it only needs that we fulfil.

Your very welcome Meg! I just saw my first Robins this morning. The air was filled with the sounds of birds and smelled of Spring this morning too.

"Do you think something’s wrong with Amy? Or hubby or something?"

Sorry that I was away most of the past two days. Everyone is fine. It just seems to get so hectic around the Just Home.

I'm trying to spend more time with Marissa on her homework. She is not doing very well .... she really needs help with her math. Now she is working on a state project and she chose Hawaii.

She has a section about famous people born in Hawaii. She would not include a picture of Zero. I insisted and she asked how we knew he was born in Hawaii since he hasn't shown his birth certificate. :)

I think she is part of the VRWC.

We picked out a new puppy yesterday but will not pick her up until 4-15. After losing Buddy, we want them to give her all 3 puppy shots before bringing her home. She is a German Shepherd mix ..... mostly black. I think Marissa still wants to name her Daisy.

We had a puppy dumped on us last week. He is about 3 months old; I think he is pit bull mix. Marissa has named him Ralphie. We are going to give him to the rescue people but they have asked that we shelter him for a couple of weeks. I will take him to PetSmart next Friday so they can give him his first shots and take his picture.

I've also been trying to spend some time with my brother. He seems to being doing much better. He is now on high blood pressure medication. They suspect he may have had at least one mild stroke. He has an appt to see a neurologist on the 29th.

Anyway, time sure slips away. Thank you all for your wonderful posts. Thank you for keeping the doors open to AP.

Hugs to you all.

O Come, Let us Worship and Bow Down:
Let us Kneel Before the LORD our Maker.
For He is our God; and we are the People of His Pasture,
And the Sheep of His Hand.

Well, its good to hear that you’re not sick, Amy. We all worried about you. Glad its nothing serious.

We all get overcome at times....I do, in fact, I’ve been that way for a while now. So much to do, don’t feel like doing it and don’t know where to start.

I’m glad Marissa is not using O in her project. I hope she doesn’t go to school and tell them her Mama doesn’t like O. (I know she won’t, but I thought you needed a smile.) I know how patriotic she is and I hope she doesn’t turn Democrat on us. LOL! We would hate to gang up and give her a spanking!

See you later. I have to get dressed before I can finish posting some comments!
