Today's Quote

“As parents, we should remember that our lives may be the book from the family library which the children most treasure. Are our examples worthy of emulation? Do we live in such a way that a son or a daughter may say, ‘I want to follow my dad,’ or ‘I want to be like my mother’? Unlike the book on the library shelf, the covers of which shield its contents, our lives cannot be closed. Parents, we truly are an open book in the library of learning of our homes.” Thomas S Monson

A Sonnet

Rain Rain go away. Don't come back another day. I mourned you once, but now I'm through. I'm ready to be done with you! You left me once to my lament. Then you came back and I was spent. I do not wish you back this time, nor to merge your life with mine. You held a beauty all your own. The depths of me you may have known. Yet you are not the balm I need, to keep closed wounds we've known to bleed. So please be done, and gone this time. And leave me to enjoy what's mine!
