Vacation Memories


Last June, I had a real vacation....one that involves going away from home, staying in a condo, relaxing, and seeing the sights! This is the view from our condo one morning when a hot-air balloon came by. Wyndham Resort, Pagosa Springs, Colorado - 2007.

Illuminated from Within
Backlit yellow bloom
the awakening garden cheers.
Her glory not achieved
from her own need to please
but by the One who created her
to turn invisible rays
into stunning beauty.

Like her, I effortlessly reflect
the glory of my Creator
when the Spirit is invited
to illuminate from within.
