A Wish

​This child limping 

Long for Jesus’s power 

To heal with a touch 

Sunset: A Haiku

The colors of dusk

A crescent moon ascending

Autumnal air brisk

A haiku while walking in Everett

History in bricks

Such elegant stateliness

An autumn sunset

Year’s Cold Edge 

​

I feel fear’s cold edge 

Darkness descending early 

Wearing my wool clothes 

Autumn’s presence now permeates the air. Leaves fall with vigor.  

Proactively Dealing With Fear

Proactive or not

Fear demands our attention

This calm, Autumn night

Reality and Possibility

possibility
Where is the boundary
Between reality
And possibility?

In Motion

​Dreams of motion

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Sunlight’s glaring strength 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>The forces of life drive hard 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Each day waking 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>I’m the same bed

<

p style=”font-family:"”>With different views 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Outside this glass

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Wheels sparkle in the day 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Transitions happen 

A #midnight #haiku

In this deep darkness
As this day transformed to new
This eerie silence?

Resisting the night

Darkness holds its own 

Rest is deceptively hard 

The street-light’s ally  

The Passage of Heartbeats

Each moment passing 

Fading into memory 

Waiting on sunlight
