random thoughts at on a rainy day
I am not your enemy
I’m not evil, I not hateful
my heart does bleed for
righteousness and justice,
for equality and compassion,
for community…for peace,
for the underprivileged,
the marginalized, the sick,
the immigrant, and refugees,
like my ancestors who came here
seeking a better life and freedom
because I believe, as they did,
in hope, in a constitution that says,
all men (and women) are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
I am a proud progressive patriot
I believe this nation
has the potential to be great…
not through division and hate,
but by being the beautiful,
big tent, melting pot, that our founders’
envisioned; a colorful tapestry
crafted from patches of silk, cotton,
wool, satin, suede, and spandex
I believe in the truth and telling it
no…i am not your enemy…
even if powerful people,
intent on hoarding more
and more for themselves,
would like you to believe that I am
once upon a time,
I was your family, your neighbor,
your co-worker, your friend…
in my heart I still am

For today’s Glimmer, I invite you to “Find the Deer”. It’s a CB part of my morning walk, scanning our property and the bordering forest. Sometimes all is quiet but for a few squirrels chattering and the plop, plop sound of hickory nuts falling from the tree limbs over my head, hitting the ground around me (thank goodness I’ve thus far escaped being knocked on the noggin…knock on wood!) but this morning the young bucks were out. One has shed his velvet and a very strange raw look about his tiny antler points. At any rate join me on my walk and play along… do you see them? Their coloring has darkened with the season from fawn colored to a light brown. I’m fascinated by the natural changed in the environment and its wild residents as they settle into survival mode, winter and hunting season looming.
Much love, peace, and glimmers to you!
