Week End Snapshot #2 - Peace





And suddenly I turned
To see this lovely bloom
A bloom that not only has endured
Many cold nights and cool early mornings
But has burst forth in grandest style
Though it may pale in color to the red rose
And colors of others that shine more bright
Cast forth such sweeter smells
It is the rose of peace
I did find staring up to the heavens
Delicate senses so sweetly adorned
As if to say don't be forlorn
My blooms have not been completely cast
My time is not yet past
And It remains here as witness
In fierce determination
Lacking all procrastination
And then I heard a silent whisper in my soul
"It shall come again my friend"
"It shall come again my friend."

Good Morning Bono,
I don't think you understand my position over here with our laws.

I can't have any type make money project in my name or on this blog in my name or I will lose a great deal.

I will drop by over in a little while and explain at your place.:-)

Awww....is that possible GP? I have never seen anyone beat you yet...lol!!! I will drop over later and better explain to you why I can't join the PW project.

Rose of Peace! That's a suitable name for it.

You are in the country? Take a good rest and get better. *warm hugs* Is it chilly over your side? It's Autumn.

Happy birthday Rizal!

Shinade October 12, 2008 11:11 PM  

Well Walter almost is ..lol!!! He stays up there almost more than down here now.

Happy thanksgiving to you!!
*hugs*

Shinade October 12, 2008 11:15 PM  

Hi ECL, we are in the autumn period but our weather where I live is really strange. I have the AC on now and will need the heater in the morning.

It's always like this around this time. Hot days and cool nights.

And I am trying to rest and get well but I am not feeling much better at all.

The medicine keeps me awake and I can't sleep well.

So I am exhausted.

I'll go back and try to sleep again now:-)

Ad Hoc Doctor October 13, 2008 12:18 AM

Hi Hanna,
Oh it's so good to see you here. And yes I know you prefer a much different style in art.

I shall try to find a shot one of these days when I get well and can go do some searching that you will like as well.

Although I do lean toward nature and all of her glorious gifts!!
XX:-)

Shinade October 13, 2008 7:04 AM  

Good Morning,
Marzie,
I will go in and edit my post then and add your name.

I worked on my post for the poem, the hero characters and awards the other night.

So it is ready to go.

I hope you have a good day. I'll drop around later!
Hugs:-))

Shinade October 13, 2008 7:06 AM  

Morning LJ,
I am so glad to hear that about your Mum. And yes to you and Marzie I think I might be feeling a wee bit better this morning.

I think yesterday was a peak..I felt really bad yesterday and last night. But I did finally sleep and I think I feel better today.

And wow I didn't know that about my comment box....LOL..thank you.
*hugs*

rizal October 13, 2008 7:14 AM  

Thank You ECL,

Thank You LJ

for that birthday wishes. :)

Happy blogging ya.

Shinade, sorry.. I was having bad internet connection yesterday, and thus, that would explain the double comments. You can just delete the redundant ones.

happy monday, happy blogging :)

LadyJava October 13, 2008 7:35 AM  

Jackie.. I used to hate this kind of comment box coz I was not able to know when the owner of anyone else for that matter reply to any of my comments but yeah now blogger have improved it so it now rocks :)

Shinade October 13, 2008 9:10 AM  

I didn't even know it. So thank you. I will drop over in a bit. I just wish that I could be awake when all of you guys are chatting:-)

I see that you have discovered Max. Just as an FYI, she posts once a week on Tuesdays. It is always a very thought provoking post. And I love getting involved in the discussions that she has with each one. I actually look forward to Tuesdays because of her. I hope to see you there tomorrow. I can't wait to see what she has up her sleeve this time.
