I thought I would re blog some of my very early posts from when I started blogging. At that time I had very few readers and I think it is a shame that some of the posts I loved were not seen. Now that I have a few readers whom I really appreciate I thought I would push my luck and see if I can get you to read my earlier haiku and ramblings. Hope you enjoy them x
This post is inspired by the Carpe Diem Haiku prompt for today, “Prayer”
When I first retired from my work in education, I went to work as a housekeeper at Prinknash Abbey This was a labour of love and I learned a great deal about the prayerful life from the Benedictine monks who live and work there. I learned from Fr Alphedge that every single thing you do can be a prayer if it is done with reverence and joy.

Peaceful and prayerful
monks, masters of mindfulness
sacramental lives

Meaningful moments
Of quiet contemplation
simple and sincere.
Incense is made at Prinknash
Alone with your thoughts
humbly open your heart, and
Let healing begin
Stained glass window from Gloucester cathedral
Drowning in despair
from the core of your being
you cry to the Lord
Peace dove made…
