Our work as ONE


There shall be a rising sun
And known be our work as ONE
We with perspectives in dedication
Life and purpose imbued with Creation
Wisdom gathered from many wise
The art of ALL a treasured prize
Beauty, strength and grace, a body behold
Health, prosperity, and blessings BE the story told.

Rose Marie Raccioppi

To my three sons
Patrick, Charles and Christopher
In loving faith,
MOM

Each one of my sons, in my conversation with them this very day, brought me to a deep place of gratitude, faith and love. The words of this poem came as I reflected that each of us hold to very similar intentions, to create, to provide, to adhere to practices and perspectives that promote health and well being. And so the selection of words and image, "Our Work as ONE," to express blessings bestowed.

Thank you for visiting my blog and spending these moments with me. (( ♥ )) .
