Beauty
Don’t let beauty pass you by as if it were a breeze
There is beauty in most everything, why even in a sneeze
What is beautiful about a sneeze, I bet that you can’t guess!
It’s when a perfect stranger turns to you and says “God bless”
To be sophisticated and appear almost aloof
Is not so fun or dreamy and I have got the proof
A truly joyful person sees the sunrise every day
And knows that most gorgeous things are free and not for pay
A reverie of colors can delight you from the start
What is beautiful to your eyes also fills your heart
A child’s laugh, a brand new car, a falling leaf, a field of grain
A moonlit night, a grandma’s hug, a mountain slope, a summer rain
But what about the things that seem to be so dreary
When looking at some sadness our eyes can get quite teary
But there is real beauty in some quite unlikely places
Like a homeless man who shares a pair of shoes with real laces
The child who is on his knees fascinated by a bug
The lonely person’s smile who has just received a hug
Put yourself smack in the way so beauty knocks you down
Let it knock you off your feet and take away that frown!
What people are saying…

“Wow, the Jewelie gift fairy visited me too….What a poetic genius… I too am so honored and very grateful that the amazingly talented Julie Sullivan has written a poem about me! I feel so very privileged to be given this gift…. thank you Jewelie.”
I Am That, I Am
I take a walk around the town and everything I see
The birds, the people on the street are all a part of me
The flowers, children playing tag, the clouds up in the sky
The postman walking down the street, the baker’s apple pie
The sweet old lady taking time to help another soul
The high school soccer player who has scored another goal
The homeless man who has his things in a grocery cart
They are all a part of me and live within my heart
We’ll be a lot less judging and take an understanding point of view
When the world treats us all the same, I hope this dream comes true
So when I come across someone who I think is odd
I remember that the both of us share a loving God
I will softly say (I am that, I am) to whomever I meet today
To remind myself to treat the world in a just and caring way.

Happy Birthday Kelly
Forty six years ago we had a baby girl!
We picked the name of Kelly instead of picking Pearl
You came into our lives when we were very young
You were such a gift of joy and also so much fun!!
The memories of your childhood were oh such a delight
Our little meetings in the hall, telling stories in the night
Laughter with your sisters along with an occasional fight
Softball games, and soccer and dances at your school
Lots of slumber parties and boyfriends who were cool
All those holidays with cousins, Halloween trick or treats
Phones always ringing and Grandma’s making sweets
Lots of lifelong friends you’ve made along your path in life
And about twelve years ago you became your Dana’s wife!
Your Mom and Dad couldn’t be any prouder of our girl
And we wish this next year will be for you a Happy Joyful Whirl!
Margaret Sullivan
Peggy was the only girl in the original Sullivan tribe
Not an easy place to be or even to describe
With 2 brothers who were younger and 2 brothers who were older
The only way to get along was to be a little bolder
To find a way to hold her own she made some rules for boys
Don’t ever enter Peggy’s room, don’t ever touch my toys
She liked to cook and make such things like an ice cream bomb
Cookies like her chocolate chips and pies sweet as a song
Pretty handmade decorations appeared on a Christmas tree
During holidays especially she became a busy bee
She was the most amazing aunt who never seemed to cease
Making plans and doing things for a nephew or a niece
Her special love was for her son her pride and also joy
He filled her life up to the brim, a very active boy
He took her in the direction to become a soccer mom
And like many other things she really was the bomb!
She’ll always live within our heart I really have to say
We often think of Peggy, yes we miss her every day!!
