Modern Culture

Dignity and grace?

As I view this cool, grey morn

I hear echo’s rage

Seek Out Love

Seek out #grace, #joy and #love. Fill your hearts with #life.

I’m Seeking Growth: A Haiku

As I seek to grow

I’m refusing to stagnate

Pursuing greatness

Along The Shore

Along the shoreline

I feel sunlight upon my skin

A warm winter’s day

The Importance Of Heart 

To conquer your fears

Your heart must be prepared

It’s critical strength 

Nighttime: A Haiku

Nighttime has settled

Darkness’ comforts calming

Now, its back to work

Tonight’s Haiku: Remembering You

On the edge of dreams
I can see your eyes, briefly
Sadly, time’s mists win

My Weary Mind

My mind is weary

I find it hard to focus

Nighttime is calling

This Morning’s Haiku: The Predawn Darkness

Dawn has not yet broke

Though the eastern sky brightens

This new winter’s day

Dawn’s light shining west 

As it crests the eastern hills day

Feeling winter’s chill 


I love dawn. I always feel deep potential. The possibilities feel endless.
