SPRING BLESSING

May you feel a soft breeze

on your face. May it

turn you into a smile. 

May you hear the sound

of late night, soft chimes

from a neighbor’s

back porch or tree.

May you feel both breeze

and chimes down deep,

down deep in your very soul.

A ST. PATRICK’S DAY BLESSING

May there be Spring in the air

and Spring in your step,

may you march with the music

and parade with the best.

May you dance

with the best-looking

person in the room,

and when you look into their eyes,

surprise, it’s the person you married

just a long, short time ago.

May St. Patrick bless you

with gifts of green grace,

and people who meet you

always walk away

with a smile on their face.
