Winifred Emma May

If you stand very still in the heat of a wood
You will hear many wonderful things;
The snap of a twig and the wind in the trees,
And the whirr of invisible wings.
...

March wind, wild wind, blow this day.
Whirl the winter snow away. Dry the
ditches and the hollows-in tracks where
April follows. Clear a path for her advance.
...

Death is not a sleep, but an awakening
to Life. Casting off the dreams of
darkness, sorrow, sin and strife-the soul
arising greets the glory of the morning ray-
...

We depend upon each other, each one in
his own small way - giving something
of himself in terms of service day by day -
working for his own reward yet adding to the
...

Westward sailed the Mayflower pilgrims to a better land -
Where in freedom they might live - as Puritans to stand -
For liberty of mind and soul, prepared to sacrifice
- all they had for this one thing: the pearl beyond all price ...
...

It's the same old self that will awake on
New Year's Day - with all its faults and
failings, but at least my heart can pray - that
God will give the bad old self the opportunity
...

When you know not where to turn,
stay still, just where you are.
There is something yet to learn.
Be careful lest you jar the threads that
...

Dip your pen in gold
before you grow too old
and forget that you were bold
before you learned to fold.
...

Whatever your job is, do it well and
conscientiously. Whatever your task
is-do it gladly, gaily, thoroughly. Do not
grumble if you have to do an extra bit. Do
...

Today is the beginning
In the years that lie ahead
may you always share the love you have
this day as you are wed
...

Go into the woodland
if you seek peace of mind-
As this time when Nature's mood
is gentle, quiet and kind,
...

Calm your mind, get quiet within
And hold yourself in check,
Try to do too much and you will end a nervous
Wreck.
...

The first dance of all when they danced heart to heart
They knew, they both knew, it was only the start
Of something more wonderful that a mere dance
More than a thrill of a passing romance.
...

Our identity is veiled for those who cannot see - the truth behind the legends. They have lost the vital key - of prophecy - fulfilled when came the holocaust of wars - and European powers beat iron-fisted at our doors.

We are not of Europe. We, the Anglo-Saxon breed - have grown from Jacob's seed - and travelled through the centuries to 'the appointed place' - destined to become the royal cradle of our race.
...

To everyone a gift is given and a problem set.
There's a mission to fulfill, a challenge to be met...
A special work to carry out that no one else can do-
A task to be accomplished, and to this we must be true.
...

We miss him in his garden
Doing odd jobs here and there.
We miss him at the table
When we see the empty chair.

I stopped to call a taxi in the heart of Babylon.
At the pavement's edge I stood - the traffic writhing on
Leftward to the Whitehall turning like a lustrous snake
Or rightward to Westminster Bridge, the southbound road to take,
...

We've had our happy wedding day.
Our solemn vow's we've said. The past
We leave behind us and the future lies ahead
….Side by side we'll face it full of faith and
...

Yesterday's steps you can't retrace, by slowing down or quickening pace,
changing course, or turning back - You still will be on the same old
track. The only change worthwhile you'll find, will be a change of heart
and mind - leading and directing you - on towards that lovely view.

Few of us appreciate a mother's loving care
-till the bitter moment when we find
she isn't there-to listen to our woes and
wants. To cheer and to advise. Too late we
