step out on the rocks
just beyond the water’s edge
sunset’s siren song
a stately monarch
perched atop a bright orange throne
each flower a home
cicada chorus
swirling in the Southern heat
opened oven door

Homecoming
The light of music
shines underneath my heart’s door
like a child come home

Soul Shine
the water, like glass,
reflecting the setting sun
mirror for the soul
For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God in the face Christ.

Fireside Father
In a hearty fire
the smell of hickory smoke
a boy and his dad.
In memory of Glen Duncan (1935-2007).
after the rain came
the sun, in the azure sky
turned brown into green
He has made everything beautiful in its time.
Ecclesiastes 3:10a (NIV)
Twenty-two years ago, this summer, my life hit rock bottom. By God’s grace, I’m still here. Friend, if you’ve been there, you can make it too!
The glistening grass
a sassy wren sings along
with the breeze at dawn
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.
Lamentations 3:22-23 (NIV)

Spring Surprise
warm wind from the south
quickly turns cold from the north
weathervane whiplash
“The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.“
John 3:8 (NIV)
