“Everything happens for a reason”
Is what mother used to always say
“Today troubles may visit you”
“But tomorrow’s a new day”
” Always keep looking up”
“God will make a way”
“This too shall pass”
“Don’t dismay”
“Just trust,
N’ pray”
Reverse Etheree

Incessently it beats
Loud upon my windowpane
My mind wants it not
Earnestly my ears try to ignore
Yet persistant is the rain
Tanka
Scripture fulfilled
Imputation was given
Abraham believed
Righteousness was bestowed
He was called “Friend of God”

And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. James 2:23
Yes, things may be bad
But they could always be worse
Focus on blessings
Negativity reverse
Mind in gratitude immerse
Tanka Rhyme
Heat wave!
Culprit is found!
Spring disquised as Summer
Causes rising temperatures!
Exposed!
She flees,
Goes into hiding for a time.
Then, temps begin to fall
As she returns,
To cool.

The sun, moon, stars shine
Birds, bees, butterfies fly by
