Ponderings from the Porch Swing

Took Penelope for a walk this morning and the sky was so beautiful. Dark blue sky with rain clouds boiling up. Never seen such a beautiful color in the clouds, almost an eggplant purple. We came in and the rain boiled out of the clouds in a heavy downpour. Made me sad in a deep…

Rainy day this morning. White dingy T-shirt colored sky with Mother Nature spitting rain out. Tried to sit outside this morning and eat breakfast but it was just too cool and damp. On the way to the porch one of my bagel halves slid off the plate and landed cream cheese side up on the…

Another wondrous day. The sky is dark blue, matches the color chart perfectly with the blue color named sky. I think God has lost his white pastel. He hasn’t swiped it across the sky these last two days and drawn any clouds. I have the most beautiful bird symphony playing now. All kinds of happy…

Today was another beautiful deep, blue sky day. Never saw a cloud. Noticed the Lord is using his tortillon to blend his green colors closely now. Can’t count as many different greens in the landscape. Ate my breakfast in the porch swing and enjoyed watching the birds on the feeders. My yard was mowed yesterday…

Been on the porch in the swing this morning eating breakfast and enjoying this beautiful blue sky full of cotton boll clouds. Filled the bird feeders up early and lots of them are half empty now. Those goldfinches are serious about their seeds. The yard is full of birds and their symphony is lovely. I…

Beautiful Easter Sunday. The birds enjoyed the sunshine, so did I. Ashamed I didn’t go to church today. Just wasn’t up for it. Another holiday without Chief and Rosie. I bet Easter Sunday in heaven is glorious. Bet the flowers are beautiful and the birds are singing. I pray all my family up there are…

Stood in the kitchen this morning watching through the side door and marveling at the goldfinches perched on the bird feeders. Cold and damp, with rain pouring down, and God’s little song birds were flitting and flirting around the feeders just like they do on sun filled days. Today’s sky is T-shirt gray, spitting rain…

Spring has definitely sprung with today’s blue sky and fluffy clouds. Had a desire to plant a few veggie plants but knew the next few nights would be too cold. The yard symphony was drowned out by the modern day lawn mowers and leaf blowers. Was glad when all the yard work was done up…

Goldfinches have taken over the feeders today. Saw a nuthatch and a few cardinals. It’s an overcast day with a nice breeze. Wind chimes are just humming and not banging out their tunes. The sun is playing hide and seek with the streams of thin fluffy clouds. I think it’s going to be hot when…

Another beautiful day the Lord has made! Hot summer time day. The mailman put someone else’s newspaper in my box and I worked up a sweat walking three houses down to put the paper in the correct mailbox. Even the breeze is warm today. The song birds are all happily singing and flitting around the…
