Butterfly haiku

 I have not written a haiku in a long time.  I thought I came up with one this morning until I remembered that it was 5-7-5 , not 7-5-7.  ;)

BUTTERFLIES FLUTTER BY ME

MAKING ME HAPPY

BRINGING A SMILE TO MY FACE

So I rewrote it:

A SMILE ON MY FACE

BUTTERFLIES FLUTTER BY ME

MAKING ME HAPPY

I used to write haiku's a lot. I guess life got busy.

 Last month, I was able to visit my friend in Missouri. She and her husband and My husband and I have been friends for 50+ years. Our children were in church nursery together. Now, one of my children is a grandparent. Time flies.

She made this tote bag for me. She saw the butterflies and thought of me.

Mary also gave  this to me. She had her neighbor (artist) to paint it. It shows my seven-sister roses

 and, of course, a butterfly. It sits at my back door. It's made of concrete.

Today, we were planting flowers in a wild area of our yard. I am trying to let it go back to nature to attract butterflies etc.  I saw a dried-up leaf on the ground. Then it moved and there was no wind. So, I got closer and realized it was a moth that looked like a leaf.

Later, I went back to it to see if it was there. I realized it must have been dying or something. Because it was dead now and ants were feasting on it. I am glad I got photos of it. My husband told me that it was all just part of nature. :)

 

 Today, Microsoft says it is World Book Day. So ... I just went to my books and made all the eBooks free for 3 days, starting tomorrow. Now is your chance to get a copy if you missed the other giveaways!! Books by Belinda Jo Adams

 This is a picture I took at a friend's house in Tennessee a few years ago.

I think I need to get back to Butterfly Musings. :)

I'll try. But life gets busy.

Praying for Protection and For Others

 I wanted to share with you my personal prayer list. Or a sample of it. However I could not figure out how to input a PDF file. So, I made a pic of the first & last pages for you.

On the first page, are 7 verses, one for each day of the week. I read one and hopefully I will memorize them over time. :)

The second pic is the last page where I pray for God's armor over me.

In between are 6 more pages. Page 2 is the daily section. Items I want to pray for daily. My family, Missionaries special to me, Government, etc, Salvation

Bottom half of page 2-3 starts my weekly section, divided into 5 sections. People I want to pray for each week, but a group for each day.

The next 4 pages are divided into 5 sections of people I want to pray for weekly/monthly.

I then print it off in a booklet format.

It probably does not make sense. If you want to see it, you can contact me and I can email you the .PDF version so you can see it for real. And if you are interested, I can send the .DOC file so you can fix it your way.

The last one is a verse I wrote many years ago.  The knight is a what-not I bought while traveling.

Enjoy

 The last FREE eBook for this promotion is The Lure of Alaska.  Aug 1,2,3:

The Lure of Alaska on YouTube

The cover of the book has changed, the story has not!

THE LURE OF ALASKA: In the early 1900s, Cason Williams travels from Georgia to Alaska in search for an answer to why his friend died. Was it really an accident as the report said or was murder the real cause of death? And where is the gold Shane found? Will the old-timer Cason meets be able to help him survive the cold, dark winter of Alaska? While waiting for Cason to return, Anna, Shane’s Fiancée back home in Georgia, is worried she will be forced into a marriage of convenience to help her mother keep their home. Lucille lives through an earthquake in San Francisco. Afterwards, with the help of her best friend, she tries to decide what to do about poor choices she made many years ago. The Lure of Alaska is a combination of these three short stories and how the lives of each character intertwines.

 The next to the last FREE eBook for this promotion is Satilla Secrets. This is the one about Blackshear, Georgia. It features the daughter of Clay & Beth from Silent Love.

Bonus Section: Included in the back of the book is a time line of that period of Pierce County history.
