Welcome to my World !

September Morn John C. McCornack Yukon, Oklahoma End of Summer It’s toward the end of summer There’s a change now in the air It’s really quite subtle, however The weather is still rather fair But everything is at its peak And starting to change a bit It was a perfect summer though To me it was quite a hit Flower blooms are getting less and less The vegetable garden is spent My herb garden is overflowing The basil, thyme and the mint I’m ready now for the next season For the fall with all its changes A pallet of reds, yellows and browns As Mother Nature rearranges! Marilyn Lott © 2009 - 166 The World of Mom: My mom taught me The best time to milk cows is when the sky is filled with color Beauty galore I think your site is a beautiful thing. i'm only 16 and i long to live in days past. days when my great grandfather had a few of the windmills you so dreamily photograph. i think that technology is great, just not for me. i want to be able to go out and not hear some cars going by. i live out in the middle of nowhere and yet there is still no peace in it. i know that as soon as i start walking for awhile, i will only end up eventually at another road. i don't want to be able to do that. i thing that this site is a great preservation of something we should all cherish forever. i pity those who will never know what it was like to be able to see a whole field just swaying with the wind, one not corrupted with time's progress....or a beautiful wooden windmill, standing lonely in a field by a simple old oak tree. thank you for making this site. ~ nicole ~ Let the day begin The World of Mom: My mom taught me That keeping the cats out the cream bucket means keeping the cats out of the cream bucket. Time to head to the Daylight Donut Shop Does talking to plants help them grow? It turns out that there may be some truth to the belief that talking to plants helps them grow, but not for the reasons you may think. According to ScienceNet, plants need carbon dioxide to grow, and when you talk to a plant, you breath on it, giving it an extra infusion of CO2. However, for this to have any real effect on your favorite fern, you would have to spend several hours a day conversing with it in close quarters. The idea of talking to plants was introduced in 1848, when Dr. Gustav Theodor Fechner, a German professor, suggested the idea in his book Nanna (Soul-life of Plants). He believed that plants were capable of emotions, just like humans, and you could promote healthy growth by showering your plants with attention and talk. In his book Training of the Human Plant, Luther Burbank, a renowned botanist and inventor of the Burbank potato (better known as the Idaho potato), wrote that plants may not understand the spoken word, but they were capable of telepathically understanding the meaning of speech. And in 1970, New York dentist George Milstein released Music to Grow Plants By, a record of songs to play for your plants. In fact, a few studies seemed to confirm that classical or soothing music would benefit plants, while loud aggressive music, like rock music, could cause them to wither and die. Ultimately, there is little concrete evidence that talking to your plants or playing music for them will help them grow, but we say if you enjoy it, by all means, do it. Just don't let the neighbors catch you! http://www.top-greetings.com

Thanks for spending a little time in my world! John McCornack

Thunder Sounds What a beautiful Sept. morning. Looking at the sunrise over the still waters of the lake..It was worth the trip for you to make, and the early hour you had to wake. As Autumn approaches and the leaves start to show the colors of Fall. The sight touches the heart of creatures all...The thunder sounds in the distance. We all know time marches on with insistence. The slightly cooler breezes of the universe help us to know that our Higher Spirit is in charge. Keep traveling my friend...I find comfort in these pictures you continue to send.. I look forward to what is coming from you each day..and the unique words and thoughts of yourself you portray..thanks.. Thank you John McCornack. I could not ask for a better neighbor. Your WEB Page is outstanding. I share it with friends and encourage them to view it each day. You are reaching out to the world. Oklahoma could not have a better Ambassador My, my, but Nicole is a very mature young lady. She may not like technology but I bet she excels in her lifetime. Her vocabulary alone shows a wisdom and age few attain. To be able to dream the dreams she does and look past the fields and roadways the way she does,I feel her spirit is one of yesteryear. Wish all our young folks had Nicole's outlook. She is quite a girl. Too bad she is not my neighbor. We could have lots to talk about and I would tell her some of the things my elderly neighbors taught me. Wind Spirit, you must have angels inside your camera. Heaven surely looks like these breath taking photos of our "Hold Her Closer" lake between Yukon and Oklahoma City. I was all right on my diet until you mentioned donut shop!!!!!!!!!!!   Now chocolate covered donuts are calling to me .......... aah.. you caught the sunrise at Lake OverHolzer... the dark shadows... were barely lifting... you would see the darkness of night.. lingering in the waters... the waters reflectioning.... the night that just passed....hope is there.... just over the horizon... a hint of pink and soft golden colors...indicating a new day is dawning... the birth of life again...you had to get up early to catch the sunrise.... the days will soon be growing shorter.. the nights longer....so beautiful sunsets and sunrises will come at a premium... but isn't it peaceful... to sit back with a cup of coffee and wait the coming of the dawn.... seems that everything begins to stir...wake up.... get ready for the new day.... you show... the lake...at various stages of sunrise.... we can actually watch the sky...as it turns in glorious colors... denoting.. the sun is on it's way... to scare away... the remnants of the remaining darkness..... Eureka !! a new day is born... I think because I am seeing them through your eyes...the shadow of the tree... shrouded by dark shadows.... waiting for morning light...aah.. the sunrises of September are not as spectactular.....just a heavely glance at what the day may bring... a certain softness of day... when the sun doesn't reach as high.. at it's zenith....I'm so happy to see that autumn will soon be here...The summer sun bedazzled the eye.... I am ready for the soft glow of a sun that is farther away.... wait now... come winter.. I will be wishing for a warmer day.... We are never satisfied...are we...

Young People   Bless Nichole's little heart. It isn't every day you hear from young people that appreciate your efforts to take the beautiful photos to share with the world. And for that matter how many young people appreciate the beauty the Lord gives for our eyes to behold?   The pboto above the caption 'Let the Day Begin" looks like a city in the distance. Such a beautiful painting.  God did for you that morning. Thanks for sharing. God bless you, That letter by the 16 year old is neat. She sounds so melencoly though with no challenge to life. I feel sorry for her. A lot of the beauty you take is within the sound of cars, people, dogs barking.......she needs to look for the beauty in what is around her like you do....and she will find the peace.
