Rosemary's Blessing: Oh, Lord,

I am one worn out tired Branch,

And I need the newness of the Vine of You

To start the Hope-Life running through the Streams of Me again.

Lord, be my Vine and I’ll be your Branch.

Just in case you like to feed the ducks and pigeons…  Sign at the entrance to the community of Hilton Head Plantation.   The numerous man made lagoons often have a resident.  One stopped bike and walking traffic on a bike path I was using one nice winter afternoon.  They love to sun bathe.
