Quiet Time Rhymes Volume Ii

Quiet Time Rhymes is a collection of poems in rhyme written as part of my early morning quiet time. Volume I, Peace in the Pandemic contains poems written during the period of February - July 2020 in the midst of the pandemic. This book, Volume II, Into the Light, contains poems written August 2020 - March 2021. The poems offer prayers of hope and encouragement, heartfelt cries to God, and words of encouragement.

These poems are about life in general, school children and school happenings, as well as some church related experiences. I worked with grades 2-6 in all areas including some exceptional children. It was also a big mix of Caucasian and Spanish with a few African-Americans thrown in. This is my seconds endeavor in publishing. I have always thought poetry ought to rhyme so this is why my poems rhyme with a little poetic license. This is a work of love.

The Meadowsweet Year is divided into three terms, following the local school timetable, although with fewer days. Each term runs for five or six weeks either side of half-term. The book is divided into six half-term chapters with detailed timings, displays, rhymes, verses, tunes, craft ideas, recipe suggestions and pictures to guide and inspire. The pages of this volume have been recorded and photographed directly from the curriculum of a Rudolf Steiner inspired Parent/Child initiative that runs in the South West of England. With photographs and descriptions this compilation will give inspiration and guidance to many. An important part of the Meadowsweet programme is the love and creative blessing that runs throughout.

"You are our warrior," Debbie said to him. "You and Sari. Do not easily let them take the Children of Israel, the future of our country." It was absurd and impromptu, this word. Just there the flames, the enemy, and death. Yet words can surprise, can be more then words and this one seared through them like a bright hot poker and Debbie rushed back and added her hands to theirs, both her hands to all of theirs, and in the warmth of it they were instantly one: a single heart, a single brain, a single breast, one being, one purpose, one common goal. Jacob's hands went on top, and from his lips came the torch itself, for in hiding places and ghettos and death camps, in this black Passover week of 1942, in Hitler's death trap known as Poland, invincible forces were set in motion. This word, this concept, this Israel was riveted into an alloy stronger than any steel, an alloy to forge a great nation, a nation that their every action helped to build. "To Zion!" Jacob shouted, and their hosannas clamored into the night. --From Two Hands Full of Sunshine
