YES!




     Years ago, my sister Sally gave me a card with a beautiful poem by
e.e. cummings simply written on the front. It had a basic, black font with a solid, green background. I loved that verse so much that I remembered it by heart. Occasionally, everything aligns, the poem comes to the forefront of my mind, and I renew my relationship with it. This morning is one of those times. The poem, possibly not exactly as e.e.cummings wrote it, but as I remember it, says this.



"I thank you God 
for the leaping 
green spirits of trees,
for the true  
blue dream of sky
for everything which is natural,
which is infinite,
which is 
yes."  

For in him every one of God's promises is a "Yes."  2 Corinthians 1:20a

Today is a day for "YES"!  sol ( smile out loud)

Love, Linda
