Monday Memory Magic

Monday's Magic is to remember and do it in the form of poetry. Today I remembered a very sweet moment in life when an unexpected layover in Hawaii became a mini-retreat where God assured me of some things and reminded me of His love. It was powerful. It was unforgettable.

Water splashing along the shore
High up in a hotel room
Moonshine lights echo on doors
And the beauty removes a hearts gloom

Stolen away for just one night
Tomorrow's reality comes soon
But my heart comes alive in this light
And I feel my creator's love in this room

Hawaiian getaway so unplanned
But with a room to myself I can ponder
This was by God's great hand
A night to remember

Bright Fabulous Friday

Heading into the weekend is always bright! So, my Friday blog post is to ask for your pictures - something, anything bright yellow. Post your favorite for that week and have a happy and bright weekend!

Monday Memory Magic

I think Mondays are a good day to remember in the form of poetry. It could be magical!!
 Your job is to create a poem with some memories in it.

Here's my first Monday Magic Moment.

Underground transport from home to school.
No one speaks English and I feel like a fool.
I want to be in on everything you say.
But learning another language doesn't work that way.

So I jump into the magic of new foods and words
And I'm surprised by all the funny things I eventually learn.
Turo Rudi isn't a cake.
Margeret Island is my favorite spot.
Balaton is the nation's lake.
Monthly transport card is the best thing bought. 

Oh Budapest, you stole my heart
Your bridges, the Danube, your caves to start
The history, the poetry, the lovely art
Oh Budapest, you won my heart
