To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep
To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven
A time to build up,a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones,
a time to gather stones together
To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace,
a time to refrain from embracing
To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven
A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time to love, a time to hate
A time for peace, I swear its not too late

This photo showcases another of my James Avery pieces . . . a four seasons ring . . . it is displayed on the glass of a shadow-box containing one of my tatting displays . . . this ring arrived last week . . . purchased during this season, the autumn of my life . . .
This little charm arrived in my mail today . . .
it is a James Avery Mizpah charm . . .
when new, this was one-half of a whole set . . .
it is now missing its other half . . .
And Mizpah; for he said,
The LORD watch
between me and thee,
when we are absent
one from another.
Genesis 31:49
