IDYLL (i'd'l),
n. “A poem or prose piece, usually short, depicting
simple scenes of pastoral, domestic, or country scene.” |
|
Mine “moments” — 45
years. |
|
I think “Idyl-wild”
as fitting for Salter’s…
Memories of a wedding long years ago at Whittier Methodist.
Memories of hoping and praying twins into life.
Memories of sailor-making on Puget Sound
Memories of Salter jaunts from Corona Del Mar to Alaska.
Memories of a wedding on the beach at Corona del Mar
Memories of a baptism on New Year’s Eve 1999 A.D. |
|
These are only samples of
“Moment Idyll’s”
We are Idyll-makers…
And Ken is an Idyll-master. |
|
So we are here, 1000 miles
from home, and a mile high.
Why? Because we were invited
And were able |
|
We admit to expectation
Of good wine
And good food guaranteed
And songs, poems, and drama for the soul. |
|
There is history here
Made up of children becoming
Miles on the trail
Weddings and baptisms and special moments. |
|
The “Idyll” is a story of
friendship
Born in churches
In family events
On the trail
In special events. |
|
We—together—are Idyll-makers. |
