In a fog
Vision limited
Life’s walk
Vaporous
Purpose seems to be unclear
Light lifts and reveals

In the Latter Season of Life
In the Fall season of life
It seems the sun wanes,
It’s lost its strength.
It doesn’t cast warm rays as long,
Nor with as great intensity,
As when in its summer season
Of life.
Then it was so bright and strong,
Vibrant, heated, remaining long,
But now it’s lost it’s fervor.
Yet, it still shines.
It still rises.
It still does what it was created to do.
It gives light,
Even though limited.
It doesn’t give up.
It shows up.
Do you?

Redeeming the Time
Leaves falling, roses
Still clinging to summer’s warmth,
Utter grand encore

Fulfillment
Stand tall!
Reach for the sky!
It’s your life moment ,
To fulfill your purpose on earth!
Just bloom!

Created to Fly
I hear the message “It’s Time”
Yet my butterfly wings won’t fly
I want to soar, be sublime
I hear the message “It’s Time”
I want to rise in my prime
I want to circle the sky
I hear the message “It’s Time”
Yet my butterfly wings won’t fly
Triolet
Butterflies were created to fly but did you know they can’t fly if they are cold?
Butterfly Kinesiology: Keeping Warm and Staying Aloft

I can also relate this to myself, in that unless I say close to The Son, abiding in Him to receive the warmth of the Father’s love, I will not be able to stay aloft to reach my full potential and do what I was created for.
Something to think about today as I sit and watch the butterflies flutter about my yard in the summer sun.
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

World Overview
Quickly jotted notes
Faceless friends and family
Life passing by
Living in a timeclock
Checking Apple’s watch
Running life’s racetrack
In a zombie world
Filled with roads to nowhere
Lonely souls needing God.

Looking for Gumption
I’m fighting
The urge to not care
To give up
Abandon
All the minutes given
Me to use today
Shadorma
O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; Psalm 63:1
Bits and Pieces
Little things do matter
“Rome wasn’t built in a day”
Great things begin small
Senryu
“Great things are done by a series of small things brought together” -Vincent Van Gogh
Revived
I sat with Despair
She held my hand and led me
Into sinking sand
Where I met disappointment
Doubt and disbelief
I watched my dreams fading
Near Disappearing
And then I felt a presence
A Hand lifting and leading
Me out to a better place
A land of hope and purpose
Where the Light shines
Upon dreams making them new
A firm foundation
Where no Disses can dwell
An encouraging
Place full of life where
I’m building a good future
