Gideon’s Challenge

IMG_0136Undergrowth

Sheltered
by the drape of fern
and tucked
among
sweet leave’s decay
new life
finds purchase
in damp earth
even
in winter’s chill
and as the warmth
of spring approaches
new life
will grow and grow

IMG_9449Love Languages

Sweet nothings
are not my forte
nor expensive gifts
and moments
of pda
are often lacking
as are confessions
of emotions
and yet
somehow
you still know
the depth of love
I feel for you
and I’m left
wondering how

IMG_0494Within Raindrops

Come closer
and see
what lies beyond
when reality bends
and light
shifts
to show
what often
remains unseen
in a world
turned upsidedown
in a world
suspended
for just a moment
in a drop
of rain

IMG_0282Coming Home

Pieces start to
fall in place
bit by bit
as things
thought lost
and gone
return
to fill in the
spaces and gaps
left empty
that we don’t
even realize
were left
open and lost

IMG_0247Holding On

Hold on
just a little longer
as the wind blows
and the leaves
rustle by
on the ground below
cling
just a bit longer
with bob and sway
as cold bites
and seeds fall
and spring’s promise
becomes
a little nearer
every day

IMG_0184Sunstroke

Everybody reaches
for a taste
of the sun
never realizing
that it’s
in the shade
we find rest
and peace
for the warmth
fools us all
into thinking
that it won’t
someday
burn us all
to a crisp
