THE END?

Seething at the core,
brewing under pressure
Suppressed.
Fierce energy building
like a volcano ready to blow
the world awaits extinction.

   Climate change?
   Political upheaval?
   COVID uncertainty?
   Take your pick.
   If I knew the answer,
   It wouldn’t be
 

 

 

THE END

Every Block Tells a Story

 

Every block tells a story
of passing glory, of new beliefs;
a changing of the guard.
One pharaoh dies, another rises.
 
Fallen columns, buried statues
names replaced, faces changed,
plundered tombs, secret caches;
mark the passage of the times.
 
Carvings in the stone,
writing on the walls,
clues of life and afterlife
buried by desert sand.
 
Every block has a story,
Every column has a tale.
A legacy once written, 
forgotten but not erased.

ON REMEMBRANCE DAY

Dedicated
to all those families mourning their loved ones, who for whatever reason, departed unexpectedly.

COUNTING BLESSINGS SERIES - A Birthday Hike

 

YOU’VE GOTTA LIKE A BIRTHDAY HIKE

where maple, oak, pine and more
spread a carpet on the forest floor,
paths through golden arch of trees,
the gentle whispering of a breeze,
fresh fall fragrance in the air,
a woodpecker tapping over there.
That is where we have been
In a perfect Canadian scene.
A glorious gift I’d like to share.
Wishing you could all be there.
