Sometimes wonder
Where I do reside.
Living life daily
In different worlds,
Virtual and real.
Social Media,
News, Televison,
Websites,and books.
Asleep and awake,
I am a sojourner.

Morning Thoughts
I arose early
But not before the sun
Opening the blinds
Revealed a gray squirrel
Burying his treasures
In my plants, (little rascal)
As the coffee perked
I watched events unfold
Sleep would’ve hidden from me
Maintenence man
Digging up the dead bushes
In my back yard
Birds chattering at stray cat
Cars passing by as
My little corner of world
Awakens to another
Day of life, unknowing what it
Will bring, we all grasp it with hope
Double Choka
Think Positive
Wherever we awake
Everyday we have a choice
Look on the bright side
Senryu
I have the little saying “Positive Thinking Area” which I clipped it out of a magazine long ago, hanging in the hallway of my home, and often times my eyes just happen to fall upon it at exactly the right time that I need to refocus my thinking to be more positive.
I have little quotes, poems, pictures, scriptures, etc posted and scattered all about my home as reminders to me to keep thinking positive and to look on the bright side of life. For each day I awake is a blessing to me and I don’t want to waste a minute of it entertaining negative thoughts.
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
Armored and Able
Believer be aware
Always put on your armor
Wear it daily
The lion sleeps
But he will arise again
So be on guard
Your great adversary
Is as a roaring lion
Wanting to devour
The lion slumbers
But he will again awake
So be wise
Be spirtually ready
Don’t be caught off guard
Always be vigilant
For the devil
Is as a prowling lion
Seeking to devour
Stand against him
Wearing the Armor of God
He will flee.

Sunrise
Sunlight bids, “awake”!
As it glimmers thru the trees
Morning has arrived!

Birth of a Poem

Sleep Writing
In sleep
My mind writes verse
I wish I could capture
Such beautiful poetic lines
Awake

Tonight I fell asleep before writing my poem to post. I kept dreaming of poems and writing some in my sleep. Yet, when I woke up I could not remember any of them. I wish I could have, as in my dreams they seemed to be very good. Thus, the reason I wrote this poem.
