Daily Examen, Friday, June 30, 2017

French toast tastes best
when shared with a friend
over good news
and high hopes
under the watchful eye
of the Celtic Madonna.

And in the evening
when there are more mouths to feed
than expected
there is also
more willing hands
and more daily bread
available.

Daily Examen, Saturday, July 1, 2017

Loving the whole cosmos;
resting,
reading,
reflecting,
doing the basic tasks of living,
and enjoying the simple joys.

Daily Examen, Sunday, July 2, 2017

Another fair Sunday
gathering around the Eucharist
honoring friends
praying with the elderly
and eating with family.

Daily Examen, Monday, July 3, 2017

The weather continues
fair and warm
as I power through tasks
while others remain,
untouched.
A prayer for presence
is paired
with a prayer for perseverance.
