a bike on the rocks
two lighthouses grin: “look, look!”
at water’s edge
Tag: summer poem
only the bravest
dare to thrive on the edges
fearless free climbers
Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine.
Isaiah 43:1b (NKJV)
Do not dwell on bad
or bad will only turn worse
water the flowers.

This is a repost of one of my first summer haikus, written in July 2020.
pink lady slippers
keep watch, as the setting sun
peeks between the clouds
the morning after
birds singing in the brisk breeze
thankful for the rain
Let us acknowledge the Lord; let us press on to acknowledge Him. As surely as the sun rises, He will appear; He will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.
Hosea 6:3 (NIV)
and in summer, too. 😊

Adaptability
Sitting center street
Stands the ancient, mighty oak
The world goes around
step out on the rocks
just beyond the water’s edge
sunset’s siren song
cicada chorus
swirling in the Southern heat
opened oven door

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.
2 Corinthians 4:6 (NIV)

Ode to a Toad
An ode to a toad
Who calls out from his abode
To his wife on the road
“Watch out, mama toad!”
There are things on the road that rumble and run.
Things that will squish you to dry in the sun
Let’s not forget our marital roles.
What would I do with 100 tadpoles?
