In the forest wood
A tiny leaf clings to life
All life is precious
No matter where it might be
Never never give it up

Nature’s Beauty
Have you ever seen
A more refreshing scene
Nature’s Art work
A Kale leaf’s beauty
Adorned with fresh raindrops

One Small Rose
I am not a grand bouquet
I am just a single flower
What can I hope to say
I am not a grand bouquet
But in some small way
I am important to her
I am not a grand bouquet
I am just a single flower

A Fall carpet of colors
In my backyard

Thoughts for the Future
A thought,
Nurtured,
Like a seed
Planted with care,
In good soil, will grow
Into something big,
That can benefit many.
Therefore, choose good soil,
If you want thoughts that will blossom and grow
Into good things for your future life.
Etheree
Life’s Book
Never taking time.
Too busy to smell the roses.
Ignoring the clock,
We leaf thru our life’s book,
Reaching the end too soon. We weep

Life Change
This season of life
Turning over a new leaf
Old habits falling
Haiku
Wondering…
Why is it just so hard
For some to tell the truth?
“Old habits die hard”
Senryu
Security
Looking for a place to run and hide.
Health problems falling like Fall leaves
Upon my foundation of faith.
Above me threatening
Fears loom like dark clouds,
And Doubts circle around,
Causing a chill,
Til I hear
My Lord
Speak.
Reverse Etheree
He says in Psalm 32:7 that:
- He is my Hiding Place.
- He will protect me from trouble
- He will surround me and shout for my deliverance
Shattered
There are many
Living with shattered dreams
Trying to pick up the pieces
Looking for a helping hand
That will help them find the glue
