Christmas Cactus in full bloom

Several years ago, a good friend gave me a Christmas Cactus as a gift. I never buy plants, but tenderly tend to those given to me. This plant has rewarded me each year with beautiful blooms - right at Christmas.

The strangest thing - five days ago, I noticed a little pink bud. I couldn't believe it, as this is about six weeks early!

This morning, I woke up to over fifty beautiful blossoms! It brought me an early Christmas, this year!

Good Morning Amy, that is a beautiful opening with the loyal horse and the poem is perfect. I’ll be leaving in a moment but wanted to touch base with my FRiends this morning. I was so touched by Marissa’s words I read last night. Bless her heart, she felt exactly like I did and most of us did. (((Hugs to her!))))

The Dragon
 
  Grace, Power, Beauty.
All are encompassed in this magnificent creature.
Gliding high overhead,
He dances upon the thermals above, surveying all below.
With unimagined speed he dives,
Filling with terror the hearts of those below.
Racing above the treetops,
He bears down on his target.
With one sweep of his mighty wings,
The village is leveled,
Nothing left but memories.
Returning to his lair,
He is content in the knowledge that he rules all that he surveys,
Crouched upon the ledge,
He spreads his wings,
And with a mighty roar,
Leaps into the sky.
The Dragon flies again,
And He is Me.

Marshall J. Fletcher

Afternoon Greetings to Amy’s Place.

Moving on after a disappointing Tuesday, and what better way than to get together with FRiends.

We have choir rehearsal tonight for our Veteran’s Choir at church. We will be singing two songs during the three worship services on Sat night and Sun morning. Daughter #3 is gonna video one of the programs to put on DVD. Over 50 voices singing The Navy Hymn (Eternal Father, Strong to Save) and Mansions of the Lord.

How cool is that?
