To be insightful means to intuitively grasp things - an "aha!" moment!

About Me

My photo
I am a member of the church of Christ. I have been writing things since I was little. Some have been printed, some posted. I write to teach or encourage; to blow off steam; and for fun! I had my own motorcycle in my 40s; I was a bluegrass music DJ for about 13 years; I've performed some. I am a member of the NRA. In 2003 (age 59), I became high partial legally blind; in 2005, I had to get hearing aids! Franklin Field said: "Poor eyes limit your sight; poor vision limits your deeds". And no kidding, the picture was made April, 2012!

YARN CONVENTION

 A yarn convention – Just a train ride away!

An adventure that takes me less than a day!

Until now, I had no clue! I'll get new yarn! Yes! That's what I'll do!

When the convention comes again, I'm sure I'll go!

I'll hide my stash so nobody will know!

With some big empty bags and the train porter's help,

I'll be in yarn heaven, 'cause THIS yarn's for myself!

A yarn convention? Don't give me no lip!

This yarn is better than a therapist's trip!

On a yarn Facebook group I'm in, one lady mentioned a yarn convention she was going to in Chicago later that month. Another lady commented, "Until now, I had no clue there was a yarn convention just a train ride away … whatever will I do if I decide to go when it comes around again? I would stash it in the car in a place nobody will see it." ... so I used her exact words! I wish I had made note of her name!

Another person then said that could be made into a children's book. It didn't turn into a children's book, but I chimed in with this. I wrote it in about 5 minutes.

A SENIOR'S PRAYER

A SENIOR'S PRAYER

LORD, lay my worries down to rest.

I know You're in control.

Give me peaceful sleep at night.

I'm anxious, now I'm old.

I lift my hands and eyes to You.

My weapon is to pray.

My sword, Your Words, I daily read

Inspire me on my way.

I hear Your calming "peace, be still"

All hours of rain and sun.

Your "come to me; it will be well"

My race here soon is won.
