Delicate
Kale, content til
Freedom’s breeze
Carried you.
You danced among the trees.
Sky cried the day you fell

Believer’s Alphabet Poem
And always
Believe because
Christ can
Deliver, destroy
Evil enemies
Forget fear
God’s good
He helps
In ALL situations
Just ask Him
Keep trusting
Let Him
Make a way
Never give up
Overcome fear
Pray always
Quietly
Resting in Him
Savoring silence
Trusting Him
Under all circumstances
Victory is in His
Will and Way
X out all doubts
Yield yourself
Zealously to Him daily
Abecedarian
Regeneration
On a dark Fall day
Breeze lifts a fallen leaf
A soul is reborn
Haiku
Take a Chance
Follow
Creativity.
Sometimes it leads
You on an amazing journey
To find
Hidden talents within yourself!
You will enjoy finding
New things to do,
And create!

Lately I have been trying to learn how to draw. I have always wanted to but never really took the time to see if I could. So, last month I decided I would.
I bought a Sketch Book and some drawing pencils, found a daily drawing prompt site on Instagram and began my journey!
It has been a delightful, rewarding time each day. I am learning so much, finding hidden talent I didn’t know I had and meeting new friends.
I usually search for “How to Draw” sites or on You Tube that have drawing tutorials.
Today was especially exciting as the Prompt was to draw “Numbers”.
I decided to create something from the Numbers 25 as today is the 25th.
The drawing you see posted above is what resulted! It just amazed me to see where creativity led me today! From the numbers 25 to a Snoopy Top Dog drawing! 😊 I just had to share my excitement!

Time Less
Unfinished projects abound.
Each day showing me they’re around,
They shift and fall and fret,
Hoping my attention to get.
Some buried beneath a paper stack,
Just lie in wait for what they lack.
Others in plain site collect
Dust, as each day them I neglect.
Sadly they all sit, waiting for the day,
For me to have time to bring life their way.

Time of Thanks
Today’s a special time
To stop and reflect on life
Thankful for family
And friends, health, and provison
God has blessed me with much

Life’s Swing
In the cycle of life,
The swing could represent our thoughts.
Forward and backward.

Question for Seekers
Seek and ye shall find.
What is it that you search for?
Are you in the right place?
Acorns aren’t found beneath
The branches of Maple trees

I was prompted to write this poem today as I happened to see a little gray squirrel searching for food just outside my window. The little guy was actively checking out every flower pot, tree and place in the yard apparently looking for something to fill up his winter pantry. However, the trees in my backyard are only Maple and Evergreen, so he was coming up empty if he was looking for acorns. This caused me to consider what it was I was looking for in life and to ask myself if I was looking for it in the right places. Something we all should stop and think about occasionally
Unexpected Sunshine
Dont you just love it
When those gray skies turn blue,
Raindrops disappear,
And inexpected sunshine
Comes shining thru,
Making a drab day turn new!
A smile can do
A very similar thing
Into life, as light it brings.
Choka
This poem was inspired by this mornings burst of sunshine! The weatherman had predicted rain and cloudy skies all day and so it was as I awoke this morning , but then, suddenly, as I sat drinking coffee staring out at the rain falling upon my patio, the rain stopped, the sun broke though the clouds, and behold! It was a new day
Name Above All Names
Yesterday
On a busy street
Set in stone
I saw You
A reminder for all time
That You’re with me
Shadorma
Yesterday as I was walking down a busy city street I looked down and saw the name Jesus had been written in one of the concrete blocks that made up the city sidewalk. That inspired me to stop and give thanks that He is with me wherever I go and that He can also be found anywhere, by anyone, at anytime
