Observed early this morning:
jet streak
through the pre-dawn sky
connecting the dots
Observed early this morning:
jet streak
through the pre-dawn sky
connecting the dots
tiny dot of star
filling your place
in my world
sailors we be
the stars above beckon
in the dark sea

Free e-Book:
My e-book, Silver Morning Song, is free on Amazon this weekend, Nov 22-26th, so if you enjoy reading inspiring poems and short stories, do pick up your copy.
Here’s the book blurb:
“Silver Morning Song is a celebration of the delightful world around us, together with stories of the foibles and complexities of the creatures that occupy it. Here you will find accounts of folks facing decisions, rumors, health issues, temptations, anger, envy — and you’ll see the wisdom granted to help them find their way to a solution.
Through parables and short stories, in a voice sometimes humorous, sometimes serious, the writer shares valuable insights into human nature and Christian living, interspersed with poetic descriptions of the natural world and the changing seasons.”

oh, these friendly stars
what name has God
given each one?
the shaggy moose
wades into the lake — see how
the stars all flee
fishing by starlight
we glide our boat
right over Orion
the scarecrow’s coal eyes
through the lonely night
glitter like stars
moth meets our windshield
one quick flash and it’s over
a falling star
dusk wanders the heavens
lighting each suspended star
Chinese lanterns
