Keepers

Better than bottle are barrels
Better than barrels are boxes
Better than boxes are bags
Of water 😄

Whisk to sleep
Stir to dream
Cream dessert filling

Invite

Forgotten in the alleys
Go and invite the light
Darkness of the valleys
Go and defeat the night

Settings Haiku

Privately discussed
Placements of forks, knives, and spoons
Upon the table

Strum

A note in fight, flight
Giving light in tension
Heat
Fire burning the mansion
Chord
Harmony, matrimony, duel
Dual?
More fuel
A holocaust for the Lord
Burning even bone



God bless,

Drinking

Hydration does not
At first
Quench thirst
A lot
Yet with patience does
Keep at bay
The way
Of water loss

Narrow

Narrow is the truth
Narrow is the way
For many are the lies
Malicious people say

Narrow is the light
Narrow is the gate
Mercy is the narrow chance
To change our fallen fate

Forgetting

Forgetting the unimportant
Forgetting the important
Remembering only God
In prayer

Gift

Pliant grass
Stubborn tree
Mystic sea
Present gas
Humble stone
Rigid bone
Muscle mass
Elements as themselves and yet
Not the least bit othered, upset



God bless,

Campfire

Darkest jade cannot outshine
The pitch black night in which you hide
Sharpest ruby cannot outglow
The warming ember when you show

Help

Like a wing of fire
Lifting me higher
Is my help in the Lord

Like a sword’s edge
Is my soul’s pledge
And help in the Lord

Roll

Rolled and rolled
Against the will
Emptying pain
Never still



God bless,

Skiing?

Down the hill
Pay the bill
Keeping still

Sunrise

Loved and sincerely seen
Warned and guided on the way
Through which storm have I not been
And not greeted the glow of a new day?

Working on it

Sharing the labor
Spreading the joy
Cultivating hope
Blocking Satan’s ploy
Giving to God all time and strength
Readying the soul for eternal length



God bless,

Programming

Torn down and rebuilt
Trouble to the hilt
Bits in the ether
Bugs ending, never

On the Water

Walking and running
Across the flow
Look at the waves go, go, go!
Clouds stop the sunning
Amidst lightning falls
But Christ is coming
And he calls, calls, calls!



God bless,

Lust

A hole in the whole
Made by a mole
Oneself?
Self-destroying role
Cracked bowl
Son of Adam stole
Leaving in the whole
A hole


God bless,
