You ask me why I live on Green Mountain?
I smile in silence and the quiet mind.
Peach petals blow on mountain streams
To earths and skies beyond Humankind.

Cares ~ Poem by Elisabeth Barrett Browning
The little cares that fretted me,
I lost them yesterday
Among the fields above the sea,
Among the winds at play;
Among the lowing of the herds,
The rustling of the trees,
Among the singing of the birds,
The humming of the bees.
The foolish fears of what may happen,
I cast them all away
Among the clover-scented grass,
Among the new-mown hay;
Among the husking of the corn
Where drowsy poppies nod,
Where ill thoughts die and good are born
Out in the fields with God.
Elisabeth Barrett Browning

Christmas Morn
Carol of the Christmas morn—
Carol of the Christ-child born—
Carol to the list’ning sky
Till it echoes back again
“Glory be to God on high,Peace on earth, good will tow’rd men!”
