The Cottage In My Heart

Click on photo to enlarge

1. I own a little cottage 

that is deep within my heart.
Among cherished reflections 
it remains a special part.
It is a lovely, picture perfect, 
cozy, heavenly place.
Each room is CHARMING and has windows 
curtained with white lace.
The rooms are painted lovely colors
and are filled with cheer.
Aromas are inviting
as each mealtime draws near.

2. The sun is always shining

with each warm and healing ray,
as I relax and relish 
every moment of the day.
Lovely FLOWERS fill the yard
blooming in splendid hues.
While gazing through the windows
they create such pleasant views.
Cheerful colored songbirds 
in the backyard sing and play.
They gather at the feeder
and the bird bath every day.

3. At times I curl upon the couch

with cozy book in hand.
Some adventures take me
to a far and distant land.
Also I might bake or cook
a simple tasty meal,
that permeates my cottage 
with delectable APPEAL.

4. In the evening when the moon

and stars are twinkling bright,
I sometimes sit beneath them
in the stillness of the night.
That is when I DREAM of 
all the things I love to do,
and relish precious memories
that are both old and new.
Loved ones who've supported me
receive and extra prayer.
I am strengthened by their love
just knowing they are near.

5. When retiring for the night

I rest in peaceful CALM
as I anticipate the blessings
that will wake with dawn.
I am truly grateful
as my head begins to nod,
while happily I fall asleep, 
within the arms of God.
