the wind makes familiar songs

on the chimes of change

Morning by Morning

the chilled morning fog

rises to the warming sun

reflecting fireside


Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.

Lamentations 3:22-23 (NKJV)

Finding Joy in Autumn’s Cloudy Days


good news of great joy

one cloudy autumn Sunday

sunlight through stained glass


But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.”

Luke 2:10-11 (NIV)

Autumn’s Broom


wind rakes dusty leaves

across an empty courtyard

*constructive conflict


*If one intends to lead, they must bring their people along with them. Otherwise, it’s just a lonely walk.

Autumn’s Last Leaf


the brisk autumn breeze

unwavering frigid rain

last leaf on the tree


Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.

2 Corinthians 4:16 (NIV)


This haiku was inspired by the first song on Willie Nelson’s 76th studio album, “Last Leaf on the Tree.” and “The Last Leaf,” a poem by Oliver Wendell Holmes SR. and a short story called The Last Leaf, by O. Henry.
