Mr. Mockingbird

Mr. Mockingbird on the window's ledge. What makes you go up and down, Pecking on my window pane? Is it your reflection that you see? Protecting your babies you must think, As in their nest they lay close by. Up and down, morning until night, Pecking on my window pane. Gay Nell Olive

Understanding Others

Understanding Others Easy it's not to understand others, When in their shoes we've not walked. But love is the same no matter what. He who created me, created them. Love is patient and kind, believing, Trusting and enduring all things. Leaving judgement to our creator Brings understanding others with ease. Gay Nell Olive
