Hope Runs Strong

100_1102

Hope runs strong in the heart broken,

yet searching the horizon,

believing in the healing

with a measure of success,

plundering

the kingdom of despair.

Our Hopes and Dreams

20170628_132524

All of our hopes and dreams, the visions

we have for ourselves,

will only come to pass

if we press forward,

moving beyond

the ruins of our lives.

May your spirit be strengthened.

Amen.

Tea and Chocolate

20190914_122429

I grew quiet today drawing in, with some reading,

some poetry with a unique culture of love

while the snow outside is melting,

dripping from the pine trees,

and somehow I feel more

when I’m quiet,

a sense

some part of me remembering

the importance

of the inner life,

and of peace

while drinking black tea,

having a piece of chocolate

of the highest quality.

Are you taking care of yourself during this busy season?
