The days
Ramble on
Speaking
Nothing
Diverse
Until a
Goldfinch
Visits
Bringing
Color
And a
Glimpse
Of joy
Suddenly
The days
Become
Alive
With hope
Speaking
New life
Will soon
Arrive

Syllabic Verse
Sunsets like life,
End suddenly, shocking us
With bursts of color,
Or subtlely fade away
With faint hues of calm repose.
Tanka
Suddenly!
Spur of the moment
All at once
Unexpected
Opportunities abound
Divine Surprises!

You’ve probably seen those signs “Men At Work” around construction zones. Well, lately considering what has been happening in my life I would say I could hang up a sign “God At Work” because of so many blessings, new opportunities and just friendly encounters I am having lately. I am really enjoying it all and giving thanks to God.
I know God is always at work in our lives but much of the time He works in the background and He doesn’t always reveal to us what He’s doing or He allows us to see it at a later time.
But sometimes He brings us unexpected surprising blessings suddenly! And it is so great to experience those!
( The word “suddenly” occurs 40 times in the KJV bible. It’s interesting to read the different things that the Lord did “suddenly” )
Day by day the same
Routine is like clockwork
Until suddenly came
A fresh wind blowing blessings
Ordinary was no more
Tanka
It always amazes me how our mind can get carried away when we can’t see things clearly or how our imaginations begin to flow when we come upon the unexpected or unexplained. “In the Midst of the Mist” is an imaginary story that shows us the importance of not letting ourselves get overcome by fear, or letting our emotions get out of control, by imagining things that may not be true, just because we can’t see the whole picture clearly.
