Without any care,
No matter world circumstances,
The rose still blooms
Oh that I should be as trusting
To do the same as it does

Comfort and Joy
A bit of comfort
Springing up in time of need
Tiny flower of hope
Haiku
Hope springs eternal in the human breast;
Man never Is, but always To be blest.
The soul, uneasy, and confin’d from home,
Rests and expatiates in a life to come.
—Alexander Pope, “An Essay on Man”
Today as I went out to visit my “Inspiration Rock Corner” to place a few new rocks I had painted, I happened to notice a tiny yellow flower blooming right next to the HOPE brick I had painted.
It seemed to match the little yellow flowers I had painted on the brick and I thought it not to be a co-incidence that the tiny flower had chosen that exact spot of all others in the yard to appear in bloom.

Planted for a Purpose
Just the birds and me
Admiring this tall tall tree
Reaching for the sky
Rooted and grounded it grows
God wants me to do the same

The Tree Of Life
Tree
Of Life
Nourishes
Branches extend
To reach the nations
With leaves of healing
Planted beside the River
Of Life in Heaven’s Paradise
Bearing twelve fruits for Overcomers
Who will dwell in the New Jerusalem
Providing supernatural provision
As they eat eternally from its abundant supply
Observe then, and believe this wonderful truth
The Tree of Life
Can be for you
Accept Christ and
Live eternally

Resolute Rose
I saw this beautiful Peach Rose today growing in a somewhat abandoned area of old factories and thought it so odd that such a thing of beauty should be growing so voraciously even though obviously unattended to, but apparently someone, at sometime, had planted it there.
Well, I just had to pull over, climb through the weeds and photograph it and while doing so I was reminded of the quote
“Bloom Where You are Planted”. 🙂
