Sunset

  The sun sets beyond the ocean’s horizon.   The sky is a beautiful shade of blue.   As the cirrus clouds roll in.    Two lovers sit on a blanket.   Snuggled up against each other.   Fingers intertwined.    Rotating between staring at the sea.   And in each other’s eyes.    Their smiles show the depth of their love.    The sand and ocean erase their footprints.   As they walk hand in hand along the shore.    Looking down an empty beach.   It feels like they’re all alone.    Talking about the future.   Happiness overwhelms them both.    Night falls    The two lovers embrace while laying on their blanket.    Light flashes in the distance.   It is only heat lightning.   Or so, they think.    Just then, lightning strikes above their heads.    As they kiss.   Both whisper in each other’s ear.    “I love you!” ...

Inner Strength

Inner strength kicks in.    During times of distress.   Your mind spurs your body.   To overcome the impossible.   Challenging, heartbreaking situations.   Most of your brain wants to acquiesce.   Then there is that small voice.   That tells you to keep going!   Don’t give up!     My mother’s inner strength.   Is awe inspiring.    It has touched my heart.   And the hearts of many.   Who love and cherish her.      She brings out the biggest smiles.   From all who’s path she crosses.    The students she taught for two decades.    Her lifelong friends.    And her family.      For a half century.   At one point or another in our lives.   We have been beneficiaries.    Of the light that emanates.   From her strength.      Time has a way of changing life.   Our light needs to brighten her day.   Our l...

Feels Like Home

Your head gently rests on my shoulder. As your hazel eyes look lovingly into mine.    We both smile and softly kiss.    Holding each other in an embrace.   That turns our two hearts into one.      We didn’t know the other existed.   Not three months prior.   Now here we are.   Not being able to imagine life.  Without the other.     For a day apart seems like a year.   And two feel like a decade.    Luckily genuine love.   Has bonded us together.      For it feels like home.   Being with you.   And that’s exactly.   Where I belong.

Bashert (Soul Mate)

Love takes on so many different forms.   Love generates many different feelings.    Love can make you feel like you’re walking in the clouds.   Love can cause great pain.      The love between a parent and their children & grandchildren.    Is a bond that will never be broken.    From the second they are born to beyond the second you pass.   Your heart has forever been transformed.      Love given to friends and former lovers.   Can fulfill us here and there.    However, it won’t last our whole lives.    There’s always a piece of you “missing”.      That missing piece is what most people spend their lives searching for.   And very few find.    It is their true love.    The one who loves you unconditionally.    Despite your faults and silly quirks.      . True love makes you feel.    Like a waterfall of delight ...

Where Is Heaven?

Where is heaven? Some people think it is between the sky and stars.   Others haven’t a clue.    Isn’t heaven all around us?     The feeling of a first kiss.   Moonlight walks.    Holding hands on the beach.   A bite of your grandmother’s matza brie.    Or eating your favorite treat.      Heaven is your departed father’s advice.   Coming to you in a dream.    Heaven is gazing at the winter moon.   Where your son remarks   “I hope Poppy Bernie and Grandma Yvette are okay.”      Heaven is all around us.   Up in the sky.   Here on the ground.    In our hearts and a summer breeze.     Heaven is embedded in our souls.    To carry the memories.    Of family, friends, and loved ones.   Who touched our lives.    And made an impression.     Taught us valuable lessons.   So, we can pass those stories on.  ...

Brick By Brick

Every past love that is lost. Through arguments and tears.    Leads to dreams and promises.   That are now gone with the howl of the wind.   And replaced with bricks built around our hearts.      Years go by and the calendar rapidly turns.    Those bricks now have built a wall.    Which keeps out the hurt and the pain.    Where loneliness gets mistaken for protection.      Thinking that all hope of happiness is lost.   A new love comes along.    Where each kiss takes a brick down.    Holding hands during a sunset stroll   Takes a brick down.    Laying in each other’s arms.   As the nightly waves crash on the shore.   Takes a brick down.      Once the bricks are down.   A light comes shining through.   Which warms your whole body.   Starting with your heart.    Your mind is open to new possibilities.   To a happines...
