Haiku

 

Icicle fingers

My toes are toasty for now

But Brrrr cold awaits

Vers Beaucoup

 

Be Still

I will be still and thrill in knowing You are God.
Fill me with Your peace and release Your Spirt in me to 
increase in joy to employ in loving and serving You,
and avoid the enemy’s schemes and themes of evil.

Next PAD 30-3, PB, earth, wind, rain, fire

 

Where On Earth Next?

 

When my sister and I get the itch to travel,

We research and toss around ideas.

Here or there?

Why not both?

She says I’m a bad influence on her.

I say it’s the other way around.

Maybe we’re like baking soda and vinegar.

Separately we’re quite tame.

Combine us and we run all over the place.

Strolling

 

Rainy

Drainy

BrainyZany

Strolling on a rainy, drainy day.

Feeling in a brainy, zany way.

Next, PAD 30-1

 

Until Next Time

 

Hubby rattles on sometimes.

Since his strokes, I do the chores.

He often offers suggestions.

Sometimes his advice is helpful.

Sometimes not so much.

When he senses he’s getting in trouble,

he says, “Okay, I’ll shut up.”

“Till next time,” I say.

And we laugh.

The Writing Well

 

Will the writing well run completely dry?

No, there’s always more.

You stare at the blank page and sigh.

Will the writing well run completely dry?

Thoughts will piece together by and by.

You may have to go deep to get what’s in store. 

Will the writing well run completely dry?

No, there’s always more.

Divine Song

 

Flora and fauna harmonize  

Singing the nature of God

Declaring the divine and wise

Flora and fauna harmonize

From bull elk to butterflies  

The trees of the fields applaud

Flora and fauna harmonize  

Singing the nature of God
