[hometext] => Ponderings of a mad woman...
[bodytext] => Traveling along a country path Catching summer birds mid bath Amongst blowing daffodils Nestled in smooth flowing hills A flash of white catches day’s sun Attracting those whose work is done Upon a meadow painted green Sits a gate looking quite serene Gently swinging in soft breeze Under shadow of pine trees Its hinges squeak a somber tune In melody with bugs of June Looking tired and weather worn From its post a little torn Crooked as a lopsided smile Passing years have been its trial Whispering wings make paint chips drop A stained glass butterfly lands atop Stays a second then flutters by Adds her beauty to summer sky Looking at ease in God’s garden Offering escape or pardon Minds a buzz with swirling doubt Is this gate leading in or out?
