In stillness joy unfolds,
Whispers to the heart,
Dawn awakens the flowers
Inspiring the soul’s own art...
Breathe deep,
Let silence bloom,
A smile within
Evaporating gloom...
Let worries drift
Like autumn leaves
In joy’s embrace
My spirit weaves,
A tapestry of peace
By grace.
So smile inwardly
Let it grow,
A river of light
In joy’s sweet flow.

Christmas is not a time
nor a season, but
a state of mind.
To cherish peace and goodwill,
to be plenteous in mercy,
is to have the real
spirit of Christmas.

What a beautiful quote by Calvin Coolidge! It's a wonderful reminder that the true spirit of Christmas goes beyond just the festivities and decorations. Embracing peace, goodwill, and mercy are timeless values that we can carry with us throughout the year.
You, Pixie and Calvin have the right idea.
Hi Pixie!
I'll just stick with Pixies quote.
Love the photos, the beach and flowers look beautiful.
Pixie is cute and I like the Coolidge quote.
Take care, have a great day!
...Plenteous, a word that I've never used.
Here's to inner peace and joy in this season.
A rainbow at the beach - perfect, Cloudia. ;-)
Thank you.
One of the things I love most about your pics (especially in the winter) are the pics of flowers. I'll be in the tropics for four weeks beginning mid-January. I can't wait to enjoy the the tropical flora. Maybe I'll post a few pics of my own.
I so love your beautiful poem today, Cloudia, and the marvelous photos. Blessings!
Beautiful words from a beautiful place. Thanks.
I love the phrase "river of light" and its paired picture. Pixie is obviously lying there smiling inwardly. Great poem today.
Christmas greetings to you and Pixie! Thank you for linking up :)
