SATURDAY SOLACE
PEACE IN THE VALLEY Trees absorb the swirling power of a raging creek after a storm, They stand at attention and then bow as they receive a cold splash of refreshment, Branches whisper to each passing droplet, As if speaking a silent prayer … Continue reading

CUTTING THROUGH THE MUCK
The road is full of stumbling blocks, we see them every day, Our path is full of hiccups to toughen up the way, Our journey to eternity is filled with indecision, We struggle with all daily tasks requiring supervision, The signs that … Continue reading
