Dancing on the Rings of Saturn

Living with Jesus each day is a joyous occasion. As He has given me the gift of writing, His greatest gift is the gift of eternal life. I proclaim each morning, 'This is a day the Lord has made, rejoice and be glad in it. Go forth each day with a smile on your face and thankfulness in your heart for God's good grace.' I am so blessed as the impetus for writing was the passing of the love of my life, Maurine. I wrote my first poem at the age of eighty. Many of my poems were inspired by those thoughts that entered my mind, or by a word or phrase spoken by another person. I also believe that I have been guided by the Holy Spirit. During one of my sermons entitled 'Awesome Wonder,' I discussed infinity and eternity to the congregation. This led me to write a poem on both, which are included in this book. In the poem on eternity, I wanted to express this joyous occasion with a grand finish. The last two lines are, 'Joyfully we explore the mysteries of the universe, and dance on the rings of Saturn.'
