North wind with Jack Frost and wayward winds
Santa loading sleigh, but let’s begin
Good little tykes and terrible twos
Awareness sets in, eyes sparkle truth
This never escapes your inner . . .

But he wondered
How many she had heard

Not belonging to one
Noon belongs to no one; the shadows don’t wait;
they rush, blend, mingle, finally evanesce.
Noon belongs to no one; no shadows. Brother . . .

From finite
Garner nostalgia
From olden days;
Golden rays,
Green boughs,
Soft meadows,
Stars reflecting hope.
The elder watched
The constellations, . . .

In those who are . . .

Around the Christmas Tree the tiny faces are aglow
As Daddy reads the story of Jesus
and of what happened on the night when he was born.
Then he says a small gentle prayer.
The thrill is getting . . .

Between the care to take a smile
genuine

and the volition to uncurl fingers from a tight little fist

Christ is my Lord and Savior –
Holy is His precious name;
Redemption He brings to everyone, for He is…
Immanuel – which means “God is with us”.

Sundays of a Monday man
A Monday man has Sundays behind him too
when he lights a candle; kneels; pray for nothing.
A cat saunters through the time lying down . . .

Crashing softly onto the knap of her neck, swollen from the night’s
Of lifting weights at the local Sonic while tipping . . .

I have scars you could see
Deep in my heart for you and me
My head would guide you by
My heart could but we could die
Far away you've gone
Here and now my pain flames still burn
Fresh . . .

Up in the sky, my hearts eye remembers.
A time of very long ago in another time and place
When my love was far from human
Today we call them demons, but they were not so then
The Light Eternal . . .

And see turmoil, fear, discouragement
Threats of war and the massing or fearful weapons
Of melting glassier and drought
And are "distributed . . .

a whisper of a cashmere scarf
confectionaries’ sugar on her glossed lips
plump little pout

Making other plans
Chasing tails
Chastened tales
You understand
Too much
Not enough
Drop kick me demons . . .
