Welcome Addition

WELCOME ADDITION

The flowers arranged so lovingly

For everyone in the church to see.

The yellows, russets, greens and reds,

Catching eyes and turning heads.

But when a light was added to

This already perfect view,

The shadow also was created,.

Then, bless my soul, another light,

Doubled-up on the delight.

Shadow on shadow and flower on flower,

All to improve the shining hour.

MY BLUE HEAVEN

I've never understood, have you,

Why feeling sad is feeling 'blue'?

Here I am by a blue blue sea,

With shadows blue as they can be,

Under the bluest of blue skies!

It would be a great surprise

If I were feeling sad and wan

With all that blueness going on!

'My Blue Heaven' my favourite hue,

And I certainly DON'T feel 'blue'!
