January

It is his first snow.

“Daddy, the ground is all gone!”

“Son, it will come back.”


June

What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.

He has made everything beautiful in its time.

Maybe you have it all wrong.

Only time will tell.

On the snow-fogged peak

the lonely evergreens smile.

Such emptiness. Joy!

Haiku Joy

Whose Joy?


This joy that I have,

the world can’t take it away

It belongs to God.


You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace;

You know, brain swamping?

When you’re open to ideas,

just not nothin’ new.

Christmas and 🌹

Like many a porch,

but with something so much more.

Christmas and roses.
