Candle burning bright
A symbol of hope
Extinqishes night
Candle burning bright
Overcomes fright
Reveals ways to cope
Candle burning bright
A symbol of hope

Looking For Hope?
Where is hope found?
In the soul dreaming?
In the world helping?
In the heart loving?
On its knees praying?
In all those and more.
Hope is found in God.
Syllabic Verse
Hope
Again,
So much sorrow,
And again so much pain.
All I have are prayers and hope
In God
To help,
To heal, to restore, to bind,
To work all things together
For good. I hope.

Sounds of Home
Childhood sounds of home
Mom always awake at 5 am
Coffeepot perking
“Daylight in the swamp”
Was Dad’s morning wakeup call
Much to my chagrin
Mom’s much used words
You “Always” and/or “Never”
Negative tone
Norwegian songs
Joke telling laughter among
Card game smack talk
Homemade bread
With butter, after school snack
Made with Mom’s hands
Sunday softball games
Family chatter at dinner
Mom’s hot apple pie
Family and friends
Summer picnics at the park
Swimming at the lake

Give Thanks
Dark, gloomy morning
A reminder to stop, pray,and
Give thanks for light
Senryu
In everything give thanks…
