First Time Camping
It was unanimous… Site B8 with an extra tent pad, Lots of trees, water close by and the showers not too far… Area B was all ours for two days in a slow season! Three excited teenage boys jumped out, Scurrying around trying to do everything at once, Hours later with tent set up, fire […]
Random Laugh
At work, we are in the middle of the fiscal year-end close which means everyone is working extra hours to make sure all the company’s books balance. Barbara Adams was talking to Debora and I about a vendor who emailed two directors with a complaint. The vendor complained that she was “lost in the world […]
Shooting Star
I watch from afar The bright shooting star Streaming across the night, Heart in my throat, I’m watching it float With brilliantly flaming light. This time I know, Although I’ve been slow, That I have to let it fly free. No catching its tail (It really is frail), But I trust Creator to see. I […]
The Message
I have posted a new article under my Prose writings titled The Message. It’s listed over in the left hand menu of pages. Please check it out!

Journey Dance
I saw the path ahead converge with others that I know. Each traveled from a separate way into a broader flow. For just a while we interwove our steps into a dance, The time well-spent as everyone enjoyed the happy chance. Some jogged, some ran, some stopped to rest, or linked their arms to talk; […]
Ode To A Winter Night
Cold winter night sky, you draw me Up into the crystal clarity that seems So far from where I am on the inside. Even when the city lights obscure the stars With their occasional brilliant glee peeping through, The blackness between the bare branches Offers an internal security blanket. I could stare… all night… Letting […]
Somehow…
Somehow… I still wake up and get out of bed in the morning. Somehow… I still care that people love me enough to tell me. Somehow… I still steer through the daily drudgeries Though so many crazy distractions drag at me. Somehow… I keep finding the treasure of family moments. Somehow… I keep remembering how […]
