I give thanks and praise
God for your infinite ways
Which provide favor
Beyond finite comprehension
To those who call upon You

A Level Place
Praying for Peace
Searching for peace daily
So many negative words
The Peace Lily won’t grow
Yet the Prayer Plant flourishes
Plants reflect environment

The Ides of March
Kalends
Enters like a lion
Nones continues the roar
We wait and anticipate Ides
Beware!

Anticipation
Spring is coming soon!
The signs are everywhere!
Song birds entertain.
The meadow is filled with life.
Longer days are mine to enjoy.

Pink!
Which Way?
Crossroads!
Two ways to go,
Only one choice can be made.
Shall I take the wide or narrow?
Which path?

The Thief in the Night
Beware of the thief in the night
He only comes to kill, steal and destroy
His entrance is a sorry plight
To remove peace and take away joy
He only comes to kill,steal and destroy
His agenda includes an evil plan
To remove peace and take away joy
And he uses confusion and chaos whenever he can
His agenda includes an evil plan
He kills hope and destroys dreams.
And he uses confusion and chaos whenever he can
His purpose is to remove all good it seems
He kills hope and destroys dreams
His entrance is a sorry plight
His purpose is to remove all good it seems
Beware of the thief in the night
