I’d like to spend my time imagining
What life is all about and reason why
The Lord decided it was smart planning
And gave us choices to help make us try !
A DREAM TO FIND ( 2020 ) 2020/02/05
Nightshades have fallen, all is dark
Tree limbs above are bare and stark
There is this silence that abounds
As nature softens all her sounds.
Yet I can see stars in the sky
That clouds keep hiding from the eye
Oh how I wish that I could be
Some wise old owl perched in a tree
Who comprehends that hopes unwind
To help us each our dream to find !
LOOK UP, LOOK UP ( 2019 ) 2019/08/25
The sky is full of bits of cloud
With some that fairly shout aloud
They gather with each wind that blows
In shapes both recognized or posed.
So like an army on the move
That does its best to heav’n improve
And paints us pictures way up high
To keep us focused on God’s sky !
VANISH ( 2019 ) 2019/05/20
I used to think that I was strong
And knew therewith where I belonged
How sad to learn fate flew away
Ne’er to return e’er aft that day.
So long ago, that distant past
How foolish to believe t’would last
For dreams will keep us warm at night
But vanish with the morning light !
EYES OF FANTASY ( 2019 ) 2019/01/24
Oh how I wish that I might spy
A comet streaking cross the sky
Or sight a rainbow shining through
When clouds appear misted with dew.
I want to know which way to go
As evening stars commence their show
Or what it takes to reach the moon
By rocket ship or space balloon.
How wonderful this world would be
If seen with eyes of fantasy !
KEEP UP YOUR GUARD ( 2018 ) 2018/10/26
Tis true, tis true, all heaven knows
There is a feeling, grows and grows
We need You Lord, the night blows bold
Tis sad to think, but youth gets old.
They too must trod this selfsame road
Perhaps bearing a greater load
Remember that each breath we take
Has many varied paths at stake.
Make sure each step is firmly gripped
Without a chance, footings have slipped
Take care secure one true regard
Think safety and keep up your guard !
A PUZZLE ( 2018 ) 2018/08/20
Have you wondered what clouds must see
While floating o’erhead lazily
And what about the mountain’s heighths
With all its smells and sound delights ?
Do you believe that clouds can tell
If all below are doing well
Or when to rain or sail away
Perhaps return another day ?
God’s world is huge and ever wide
What do you think He keeps inside,
Seems it’s a deep dark mystery
A puzzle for eternity ?
