Writer's Block

When I don't know what to write
Maybe I should write about that?
But then how much can the light
Shed on something so empty and flat?


God bless,

Sweet Tea

Likely found in depths of honey
Is a treasure of fantastic flavor
Which is wonderfully sweet to savor
In ice tea when it is sunny

Stormy Walk

Carefree caress of gentle rain drops

Gliding down with plips and plops

Birds and squirrels hide in their trees

Avoiding the draft from a sudden brisk breeze

Rainwater dissolving children's pictures of chalk

Such things can be seen during a stormy walk

God bless,

>P<

Carnival

When the world shuts down

And its fun will darken and fade

The divine lights will still shine

With Truth fully arrayed

God bless,

It is a Joy to Walk in Summer

It is a joy to walk in summer
Amidst the heat and beneath the light
And still a joy to walk under
A winter moon amidst the night

And where I walk you will find me
As you made me wandering
In sky, on land, or sailing the sea
A traveler's song I ever sing

This song I sing is of the home
That you have built of flesh and bone
Where I will no longer flit and roam
A house of faith sturdy on stone

Where I will leave my souvenirs
And finally rest in your hands
A child who has overcome his fears
And enjoyed your varied lands

And finally I will deeply sleep
Dear brother, O so gently rest
And may your peace within me steep
As my exhausted soul will crest


God bless,
