Connected
We move
together
through tides
and times
side by side
year after year
connected
supported
and never
alone
for our hearts
are connected
as one

Gideon’s Challenge – Decorated
Decorated
A moment
of distraction
and a spark
of pain flashes
as knees land
in soft soil
and a stone
digs in
The curse let fly
as feet are gained
and hands brush
at stains
left behind

Gideon’s Challenge – Dreamy Moments
Dreamy Moments
Lying in the
back seat
with eyes
on the sky
out the window
fresh air
crisp and cold
swirling
as deep breaths
slip in
and out
slowly

Gideon’s Challenge – Light Play
Light Play
Lighting shifts
into a moment
of surreal beauty
as low clouds
and sunshine
clash
to create
pops of color
on a
misty morning
leaving time
for a
breathless moment
of awe

Gideon’s Challenge – What I Need
What I Need
Words are
often reassuring
but
it’s the feeling of
safety
and security
that comes from
your presence
in my life
that counts
far more
than words
ever could

Gideon’s Challenge – Meditation
Meditation
Take a breath
deep and full
and let it out
slow
as eyes
close
and the sound
of birds
fill your ears
on quiet
mornings
each day
