Hand of God - Flash 55

When the hand of God

Reaches out to You

Take hold, cling tightly

When you doubt it is true

The ride of your life

Fear not if you dare

Open to the unknown

Ignore signs to beware

A chance you’ll regret

Don’t let it pass by

Go with the flow

Nothing lost if you try

May In Our House - Flash 55

The Month of May

Has Been Busy In Our House

Our children have completed milestones

Our son graduates from college

A teacher he plans to be

One daughter finishes her Finance Degree

One more year for a double major

Another daughter graduates high school

College plans begin in the Fall

Besides that – It’s been slow.

TGIF for Mr. Knowitall

Tired and sore and don’t want to go.

Just want to crawl back into bed.

Even the hot and steamy shower

Did not relieve the fog in my head.

Looking forward to a restful weekend

Oh my, what a long week it’s been

Know Monday will come soon enough

So I’m enjoying myself until then

Friday Flash 55

When Is It Enough?

When 55 is a struggle to post
and the words just won't come out.

When all you want to do is cry
but instead you decide to shout.

When doing what is perceived as right
is an expecation that is unfair

When treating others well despite
it appears no one really cares.

Good Friday Off - Flash 55

Good Friday finds me off of work.

A wonderful thing indeed.

No plans are made just relaxation

It is something I desperately need

Hoping to do some reading

Writing on my blog as well

Maybe some gardening in the yard

Only time will tell.

Good Friday finds me off of work.

A wonderful thing indeed.

The Catcher of Dreams (Friday 55)

image from mylot.com

The night arrives with both

good and bad dreams.

The good dreams pass

unencumbered down and

out through the feathers.

Blessing the owner with

pleasant dreams!

What fears and other

forms of incubus

have been captured

in the suede lace of this

Indian Medicine Wheel?

Only the Dream Catcher

knows the answer to that question.

Sunset in the Cove

As the evening sky begins turning shades of blue and pale pink

I watch from my vantage point on the shoreline.

Patiently, as if in slow motion, the vessels return silently to the cove

that welcomes them back home.

Another amazing harvest and the crews are thankful for the gifts

which they have been provided.

Butterfly Blue and Butterfly Orange ~ Friday Flash 55

Butterfly Blue and Butterfly Orange

come to the meadow tonight.

The lavender night sky greeting them as they traverse

through the grassy field with only one mission in mind. 

The wildflowers blooming in bright hues

of periwinkle, magenta, and navajo white

patiently wait for the soft feet of their saviors

to pollinate stamen and pistil.
