Rains are coming soon.
Are they the tears of summer
as it says goodbye?

Season of Joy
Harvest moon tonight
Shines down as I celebrate
Sukkot joyfully

Running in Circles
Side tracked
Lost my focus
Following rabbit trails
Did not keep to the beaten path
Off course

Provision
I wonder and worry,
But God speaks in many ways.
He often whispers when
I find a penny or dime:
“I will provide for your needs”

A New Day
Today,
My life goes on,
And yesterday’s cares fade.
What a difference a day makes.
Time heals.

Word Power
Life. Death.
The difference
Is often a thin thread
That one careless word could snap and break.
Caution
Needed.
Be very careful when speaking words.
They have power to change life
For better or worse.
Choose wisely.

Strange Day
Friday the Thirteen.
Am not superstitious,
But this day seems odd.
Meeting many rude people.
Is it just a coincidence?

Night Time Rain
High temps
Flowers in the sun
Concerned for their welfare
Awoke to find God watered them
Over night

We all remember this day
We shall never forget to remember

Summer’s Return
Sun rises big and bright
Heat Wave has come upon us
Indian Summer dawns
