The lonesome whistle of the train
Keeps singing to my tired brain
The trip is long and nears its end
I’m ever weary, oh my friend
And what if we should never die
How could we then embrace goodbye ?
SEASON’S CHANGE ( 2019 ) 2019/01/19
The winter chill returns once more
As reckless waves crash on the shore
The eagle nests in heaven’s skies
As snowflakes fall before one’s eyes.
The winter has too soon begun
Make way anon for frozen fun
Unpack your muffler, hood and ski
Tis now the hour for snowtime glee.
Enjoy as days all fade so fast
Note, even winter scurries passed
As we prepare for spring’s encore
To be life’s cycle evermore !
ANTICIPATION ( 2018 ) 2018/07/17
There is this dream in which we’re caught
Wherein our hopes and fears are fraught
A place where passions that we knew
One day at last will follow through
To fold us in God’s circle of
His unabashed enduring love !
THE FINAL DAY ( 2018 ) 2018/06/13
This heart of mine it hungers so
Too much to say before we go
The words don’t come so easy now
Caught in the throat, sometimes somehow.
A simple act of nature’s need
Bids all who dare, take care indeed
The changes come and fall away
Too soon we’ll meet that fInal day !
THE SILENT NIGHT ( 2018 ) 2018/03/18
The quiet of the lonely night
Now fills my waiting ears
The silence funnels all the fright
Into my wildest fears !
IT’S NOT EASY ( 2018 ) 2018/02/06
Once long ago I knew a life
Which proffered me all that it could
As daughter, mother and a wife
In happiness with aspects good
Seems it appears after all that
I find myself left derelict
And wearing an indifferent hat
My days no longer kept that strict !
OUR NUMBERS GROW ( 2017 ) 2017/11/16
This gentle thought does make its way
Into the musings of each day
What is it that our God has seen
As He looks down upon earth’s scene
Can it be that our numbers grow
Who wait on Him to start His show ?
