Miss Moody March marches merrily
Away again as April approches and
Rises, returning resplendently radiant
Cancelling cold, creating colorful, cheery
Happy, hopeful habitats. Hallelujah!

Tackling Thoughts
Stress abounds
If we allow it to
Restrain it
Detain it
Take it captive and cast down
Imaginations
Shadorma
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 2 Corinthians 10:5 KJV
The Road To Home
Facing the sunset
On the road that leads to home
Anticipation
Traveling memory’s trail
Paved with past and present
Tanka
Speaking Alphabetically
A slip of the tongue
Brings heartache if
Careless words are spoken and
Damage can be done to a tender heart.
Even if you apologize and ask
Forgiveness theres no
Getting the words back once they’re spoken.
Honestly, words can be like arrows that
Inflict pain if they are
Judging words, but if they are
Kind words, spoken in
Love with true
Meaning and compassion behind them,
Not only will they do good, but they might
Open the door to end someone’s
Pain, or help someone
Quit a bad habit.
Remember to think before you
Speak, and
Try to always choose
Uplifting words that will bring
Victory into someone’s life, for
Words are powerful!
X-ray each one for harmful effects before
You speak it, for we all need to be
Zealous to make sure our words are good.
Abecedarian
An Achiever
Be a day dreamer,
For its been said that
Those awake
Can achieve!
Dreaming with eyes wide open
Can be dangerous!
Shadorma
All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible. — T. E. Lawrence
Discombobulated Day
Twas a day of mish-mash
A bunch of skimble skamble
Nonsensical stuff
Senryu
It’s Spring!
Springtime
Abounds around
We feel it in the air
See it bursting everywhere
We rejoice!
Cinquain
Faith
Not once, in all times I’ve cried,
Coming to you broken,
In sorrow on bended knee,
Heart burdened with pain,
Not once, have You not heard.
Yet, of certain things
You’ve not replied though
In tears I ask again and again.
My heart knows as I walk
Taking steps my eyes can’t see,
That someday soon You will answer,
Fulfilling things hoped for
By this trusting soul, for
Not once, have You not heard.
Sonnet (Modern-unrhymed)
(Based on Hebrews 11:1 and 2Corinthians 5:7)
Family Peace
Wet Footprints
Two hieroglyphics
Imprinted
Two symbols
Upon two rocks temporily
Ponder the meaning
Shadorma
Today my grand-son and I were outside in my yard taking some pictures of him before he left on a trip to do a show in Seattle. He is a music artist who performs hip hop. The grass was wet as it had rained earlier. As we walked back to go inside we had to step on some river rock I have near my patio. I happened to look down and saw that our shoes had left some strange looking imprints on various rocks. Two rocks in particular I noticed as looking like having hieroglyphic symbols on them, so I snapped a couple pics. Upon doing an internet search on hieroglyphic images I came to see a somewhat similarity to the symbols for Peace and Family, in some images of the Chinese alphabet, and family peace is something that I recently have been praying for. Is it too far fetched to think these wet shoe markings could be telling me we are taking steps towards Family Peace? I am not one who believes in co-incidences and I see meaning in many unordinary things. So I am led to believe perhaps God sent this as a sign to us.
The Greatest Gift
God
So loved
Everyone
Yes, everyone
In the whole world
That He gave us a gift
The most precious gift He could
He gave us all His Only Son
Who died to save us all from our sins
And bring us all into eternal life
Etheree
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. 1 John 5:13
