Free

 Free

What does

It mean

Somebody 

Gave their 

Life

In defense 

Of you and me

Thank you 

True countenance

 Wandering the back roads

Down gravel roads 

Off beaten paths

I find life

At its best

Delighted

By what

I didn’t expect 

That took my breath

And left my face

With a smile

I didn’t fake

Peonies

 Peonies

And picnics

Wine and cheese

I’m ready 

For you

This weekend

Blessing

Grateful 

Is a mindset

A choice

I’m making 

In this moment

Each day

Is a blessing

I often abuse

Round

 Twirling me round

As I lose myself

In summers’embrace

Hummingbird

 Drenched

In morning glory

As the hummingbirds

Sing accapella

Yard

 Sunning

In the heat

That bakes

The clover

In the yard

Faith

 Wait

Slow

Steady

Steps

Are 

Best

Desire

 Let me 

Lay my pride

Down at your feet

My desire

This day

That brings

Sunshine

And unlimited blessings

Rebuke

 Lord

May I be

Receptive

To instruction 

Not defensive

In rebuke

Lovely

 Stand tall

You are

A special creature

Made with love

Beautiful

 Clear head

Sleeping dog

Grateful for

A new day

Saying

I’m all yours

Love to

You 

Blessings

 Showered

Refreshed

Anticipating 

Your blessings 

Hands

 Pray

And 

Leave it

In His Hands

Joy

 Lord

I’m thankful 

For love

And family

That don’t 

Leave me

Each moment 

Is a chance

To restart

And set

A new intention 

Forgiveness

 Forgiveness 

I need it

I haven’t done

The best 

Taking care

Of myself

Today

Is another day

To make right

What is wrong

Rainy

 Rainy day

Watching 

And 

Letting it be

Yes

 Smile bright

Far and wide

Letting

The light 

Within you

Become the spark

For others 

To see

🙏

 I’m having to

Just take

One minute 

At a time

And pray

That all

Will be well

💕

 Thank you 

Waking up

With coffee

And a good friend 

Making 

The best 

Of situations

That cause growth

Even if 

I’m not comfortable 

Reach

 Valley

I really 

didn't want

to meet again

in the rain

i feel you

making it known

that you must

face the mountain

that has become

Goliath

Look up

The Rock

is here

Run to me

not limping

in shame 

and disgrace

Child

I didn't make

you in fear

Stand tall

I will not

Forsake you

Take my hand

it's always

within your reach

Thought

 Lord

People 

Frustrate

Me 

Is 

There

A button 

Where

You can

Stop caring 

Help me 

I don’t know

What to do

Anymore 

Name

 Clear out

The clutter

I’m going

To sing

For I’m alive

In Jesus name

My flaw

 In your World

You tell us

to refrain

From anger

Lord

I'm angry 

at myself

Who knew

the hardest 

person

to forgive 

would be 

the one

I can't bear

to look 

at in

the mirror

having to be honest

to grow

Acceptance

at its root

Problems

aren't fixed

until they're faced

I have rebelled 

help me conform

to Your will

Mine fails

every time

I always seem

to need reminders

that my strength 

will fade

While Yours

Doesn't

I replay

every mistake

each foible 

release me

from my need

for control

it's elusive 

and exhausting

Spring Sunday

 Sunday

Spring

Day 

Stepping on 

Dandelions 

As the

Earth beneath

My feet

Feels like

Home

Easy

 Take it easy

Like a cool

Early morning 

Breeze

Sweeping wisps

Of hair

From across 

My face
