Growing Thought

One itsy bitsy
teeny weeny
little bitty thought
Doesn’t change much
‘til it grows up
Or catches onto
the bootstrap
of some powerful emotion

then WATCH OUT!!!

Ever Grateful

Sky growled gray
Spat like a cat cornered
Wind blustered and agitated
Shook ideas to bone
And behind
All the falderal
The sun shone gaily
Ever grateful
Ever warm
Ever light
Such is God’s love for us

Celebrate

One more day
Singing in the morning
Awakening to the joy
Before the rest of the day unfolds
It tints everything
A rosy warm
Even when it’s cloudy
Life is a celebration!

Wise Guy

The wise guy

whooped his way
through the overcast day
With such aplomb
and cracking of jokes
that everyone he met
was uplifted
by the merriment

Whoop whoop woo woo!!!

(Aw, wise guy, eh?)

Raven’s Message

Raven “cawed”
With his voice so lovely
Soothsaying his message
From the Spirit world
He’s always
bringing me messages
Too bad, I don’t
understand his language

“Caw!”

Love Remembers

Falling from pensive lips
the words splattered
on cheeks crimsoned
by embarrassment
Thoughtlessly thoughtful
sentences and deeds
oft times awaken
deeper feelings
All in all, beneath it all
Love shines still

Remembering, remembered

Be Still

Over the top
he saw the light
at the end of the tunnel
“Still, be still,”
he told his tender heart
“Let God love me!”

Dose of Love

A daily practice
a dose of love
Given lavishly
without hesitation
even on the darker days
or hours so busy
there is no time
for actual evidence
Written out in loving long hand

and kissed by heart’s instincts

Passionate Support

It was just kinda’ quirky
the way that system worked
Suddenly, there was a plethora
of passionate supporters
Cheering on her
every creative endeavor
