Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week    

 May you live a long life full of gladness and health,
With a pocket full of gold as the least of your wealth.

May the dreams you hold dearest be those which come true,
The kindness you spread keep returning to you.

May the friendships you make be those which endure,
And all of your grey clouds be small ones for sure.

And trusting in Him to Whom we all pray,
May a song fill your heart every step of the way.

Grace E. Easley
