FLEETING MEMORIES
Howling, whistling, streaming through a patch of aging trees, The wind surprises and upsets and strips them of their leaves, One day a lush green canopy, another turned to gold, Soon withered, dry and sapped of life, they waiver in … Continue reading

HEART & SOUL
I can still recall sitting at an old upright piano, with another sharing the piano bench and playing the high notes while I plunked out the chords. Heart and soul, I fell in love with you, Heart and soul, the … Continue reading
GROUNDHOG DAY ALL OVER AGAIN

HEALING IN LAUGHTER
A child’s laughter is one of the sweetest sounds in the world. Laughter from an elderly person with no teeth can be just as gratifying. Laughter can also indicate embarrassment, frustration or even panic. Laughter can trigger all kinds of emotions, but one thing … Continue reading
CAN THERE BE PEACE ON EARTH?
Traffic sounds rumble early on a frosty morning. The crash of box cars echoes from the tracks. People running here and there with so much to accomplish and so little time. You become invisible in a sea of bodies rushing – … Continue reading
MAKING WAVES
ART & POETRY BY PAUL & KATHY BOECHER© In life we have a quiet voice, that whispers more than screams, We open up our mouths to speak, our thoughts, our hopes, our dreams, We take the easy path it seems, … Continue reading

The glory of God’s majesty spilled through my window this morning,Is it a foreshadowing of good things to come?Alone I sit in its warmth Wrapped in its glistening light,Soaking in the rays of heaven,Feeling God’s presence,Delighting in His perfection,There is … Continue reading

IT WAS AN EPIPHANY
I’m a lot like my mom when it comes to telling jokes. She’d often forget the punchline as do I, but she relayed a good one several years back, regarding the wise men of the Epiphany. When on vacation in the … Continue reading
WHAT FACE WILL YOU WEAR TODAY?
I must admit – I have a face that can be more like a mask than reality. I have a number of different profile pictures on my facebook page. Many look like a normal, ordinary old lady. Some are filled … Continue reading
