I stare out windows a lot. I notice. I pray. I pray today that today wasn’t some mistake.
“Pray With Me: A Haiku”
Don’t reverse daybreak
The light in our eyes called Hope
Energize our prayers

Describe a man who has positively impacted your life.
A man who has positively impacted my life is the One who has given me eternal life: Jesus, fully God and fully Man.
“Peek”
It’s Heaven, I’m told
Paths of truth veined with gold
Sudden grandeur that stops you, cold
No next shoe set to drop — breath on hold
Poetry, penned, directly for me
Affinity
A kind of kindness that makes man’s soul free
It’s Heaven I see
Mt. Denali, July 2016
des instructions: a haiku
to sleep well at night
dine upon fallacy soup
decline just deserts
Right Here
We are told to light a candle
We are told to say a prayer
Walk in blueness in the morning
And pretend grief brings no cares
Let’s proclaim we are the candle
Let’s proclaim we are the prayer
May the hardships become blessings
When we tread together there

Time, Of Course
What’s the coolest thing you’ve ever found (and kept)?
There is the clock
There is the teardrop
Resting quietly atop my cheek
Daring this hour
Refusing to fall
Refusing to accept gravity
As if to remind me I am brave
And to encourage my tenderness
What happened, God can tell
What else remains, but to embrace each minute
Walk beyond the years
Since you’ve gone?

Contest: This Haiku
Dear daylight, I’m panged
Ev’ry hour is 3am
Why this twilight zone
Comfort and Time
Comfort and Time
Let us live barefoot
Neglecting not our skin and faith ‘gainst vintage hardwood paths
Morning to morning
Dutiful with the truth of time yet careless of its grip
Feeling our steps’ worth
Determined to flee concrete trails that fail and lead awry
Water and earth shift
Considering doubt, yet days are short — Heav’n asks that we walk
Original Thought Credit: “Look closely, then, how you walk…making the most of time….” — Ephesians 5:15
Your life without a computer: what does it look like?
(My life without a Computer is better, stronger, faster….)
Then v. Now

Then
Somewhere on a foothill
The rocks we moved
The nights we prayed
The tree we made
All caused a clearing
And, though alone and without you
I can see celestially
Now
Solve: A Haiku
Just before sunrise
The firmament feels nearer
‘Tis a mystery….
Luke 8:10 “To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God….”

What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in?
If my cultural heritage is not only a 3rd gen Greek, German, Irish, Swedish, Pole, but also a Child Of God, then I am most interested in that I can look back and see that, in all of my 56 years, God has always gifted me a window, that I might look outward and be in awe of Him. He knows I’ll run each morning to raise open the sash and search for the sunrise. He lets me hear the majesty of the wind, but also always lets me hear a small bird’s song. Do you hear the small bird’s song, too?

My flaw…fatal to my piousness
My world…colored by a hopefulness
Might I…take a chance on holiness
Comfort…sufferers of loneliness?
