Elizabeth’s Poetry

Sweetness of Summer

A blue bird sings to me
in the blue sky.
Blue ocean waves
crash into my feet.
The taste of sweet blueberry pie
reminds me of a summer day.
My spirit is at peace,
sitting by a pool
soaking in the sunshine.

Blessings Unfold

Colorful tulips as far as my eyes can see.
It is a clear sunny day
with blue skies and a light wind.
I am reminded that summer is near.
Bees are buzzing in my ear.
Birds singing a song of hope.
Memories of my Grandpa DeYoung
taking pictures of flowers
fill my mind.
Blessings unfold like flower petals.

A World of Kindness

I am blessed
with a job that I love.
Feeling called to teach children.
I dream of a new home in Arizona
where I can enjoy the sunshine
and warm weather.
Mostly, I dream of a world free of violence,
a world of kindness.

Bright Side

In our lives
we all face good times
and bad times.
In the tough moments,
look on the bright side.
Stay positive.
Someone is fighting a battle.

Woman Power

Whether they are career women
or stay-at-home moms,
women are strong and
can do anything.
I admire my mother.
She raised 3 out of 4
children with disabilities.
It was hard but she did
everything she could for us.
I also admire all parents
of disabled children.
Their job is not an easy one.

The Power of Me

I have a good memory;
remembering times with
friends and family.
Happy memories of love shared
when spending time together.

I am a caring person.
Taking time to listen,
praying for others,
helping with advice
and encouraging words.

Life

Life is too short
to argue and fight.
Count your blessings,
value your friends.
Move on with your
head held high and
a smile for everyone.
