In Black of Night

Poetics: Sendak & the Wild Things In black of night my fears sure do grow my curtains leap like tree limbs and blow. Murky monsters moving aren’t dead; “Go to bed!” that’s what Daddy said.” Tucked under my covers I wiggle my toe; silent… as giant garbage eyes seem to glow. Across my walls silly [...]

Imagination

It tickles, tingles the senses the air adrift with aroma fresh, robust, and sweet sea water; she’s enraptured by the moment. Helmet attached over crimped hair, padded gloves hindering palm bruises; tightly clinched fists clinging to rope swaying, slowly in serene breeze. Sunlight dances off algae pond.

Purity

April is National Poetry Month I’m celebrating by writing for kids this month! Hope you enjoy my Kid’s Poetry Protegé Project She tip-toed still… Along flag stone paths, Dreaming of the future plans Little feet stepping toward big dreams; Hope filling childhood play and panorama. She tip-toed… As life unfolded into Something so different then; [...]

Hope you enjoy my Kid’s Poetry Protegé Project With weak hands they tried to dismiss them; scolding the very thought they could just come.

Scribbling Spiritual Sand, April 23

His Return “For the world is Mine, and all its fullness.” Psalm 50:12 The cattle on a thousand hills, as morning sunlight gently spills; across the land with bird and beast. Little ones like me clearly see God is every blooming tree; He is mighty, I am least. The cooing of mourning dove all gathered [...]

Popcorn Prayers

In Passing

April is National Poetry Month I’m celebrating by writing for kids this month! Hope you enjoy my Kid’s Poetry Protegé Project Cheerless children… so sad you be, darkness drapes like a canopy, hot tears drop as sweet summer rain, but winter’s past … along with pain. Childhood departs like blowing sand, little feet tip-toe grassy [...]

Scribbling Spiritual Sand, April 16

But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. Then they went in and did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. Luke 24:2-3 Bleeding Hearts What grows near the empty cave where sweet Jesus once did lay; large, rough stone now rolled away? Tears of man glide on the wind. Did bloom [...]
