I struggled all night, my dear, restlessly drifting in and out of sleep mingled with pain; discomfort, perhaps, a better word. I can imagine others shouts who live with insurance fears? How complicated the monster has become? It looms insane like a hawk’s eye, devilish bird; stirs Sam’s health plan poignantly purr. If one is [...]

“Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.” And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed them. Mark 10:15-16 If I were yet a babe tucked deep within the womb nestled in safety [...]

Do You Love Me?
My cat sits comfortably on my lap; his purr content. I don’t need to do much. Just be there; as he nestles down in the covers. He is happy to be near me. Sometimes I go down my long driveway to retrieve the mail without my dog; space is nice and my golden doesn’t see [...]

“So He (Jesus) said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”” Matthew 14: 29-30 Just Come I stand on [...]

Mortality
It’s amazing what can happen in a week. How fragile life is. Last week a close relative was diagnosed with cancer, closed her life-long business, put legal papers in order, frantically searched for insurance coverage, and had major surgery. If that is not enough she faces 18 weeks of aggressive Chemo. Through the anxious pace [...]

January 16 “She (wisdom) is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, and happy are all who retain her.” Proverbs 3:18 Like a Tree With might the tree stood in sandy soil; branches lengthen toward open skies calming as sapphire seas, placid as amethyst mountains, serene as emerald forests. Trials entered [...]

Day Four
In just one day of Creation… Sunshine’s sheen glows, glitters, gleams Moonbeam’s halo glares, glories, glimmers Starlight’s luster glints, guides, glistens Earthen land once did swiftly settle Into high hill, velvet vale, and concave kettle Echoing… echoing… after leafy nettle With just words, to gladly say Sun flushed nimbus enfolding man’s day Dazzling… dazzling till [...]

Winter Thoughts
Spell Check did not like this piece… he,he,he Reeds rocking restfully in mid-winter’s Boreas; shhhush… shhhush… shhhush… Frozen pond stiff as starched white shirt; thuggg… thuggg… thuggg… Brittle marsh gasses woefully whistling in wind; whooo… whooo… whooo… Branched birds busy in skeleton trees; chick-a-dee-dee-dee… chick-a-dee-dee-dee… Alone in winter wood wondering why frigid air is left [...]
