Random Thoughts on a Rainy Autumn Day
This season of my life has brought about many changes. Good changes. God changes. There’s peace here. And lots of it. Days are not as busy and hurried as they used to be. But still my mind has not caught up to the pace of my life. I still overthink, over compensate and have a…

Hope When Life Hurts
Life hurts. A lot. No matter our demographic, pain, heartache and disappointment touches us all. From the time we exit the womb, until our last breath, life can hurt; a lot. There are times, when I’m in pain, that cynicism creeps in to take over my thoughts and it paints a picture of doom and…

A Mother’s Thoughts Before Bed
It’s a challenge to think of your adult children as anyone other than the babies you carried, nursed and rocked to sleep on this hard days and nights. As anyone other than the children you got off to school, played hide and seek with or taught them to tie their shoes. Or the teens you…

It’s life-altering when we are known, when we connect with others deeply in being known. It’s life to a lonely soul and water…

FORGIVEN
Soft eyes that now give way To a thousand apologies Past demons Chased away by mercy and forgiveness Peace, the voice that beckons Love the song that sings to the broken Humble voice now whispers Where once rage lived there Quiet. Resolved. Living free. Living loved. Living.

AUTUMN SONG
Sweetly on the breeze He calls me To the quiet Unbreakable Silence To come away And live Leaving the days gone by To pack them away And cherish The falling leaves His hand held out To lead me To peaceful rhythms Surrender the noise His soft whisper Bids me to stillness To ponder Reflect And…

SILENCE
The silence is deafening Where the secret lives It mocks and scorns Taunts and poisons Weaves the lie The fault is hers Here is where The menace moves Salivates to confuse Here in dark And shadows deep Perversion awakes The innocent weep The moon is full Alighting bright Illuminates The room at night But still…
