POWER WITHIN
Miles and miles of timber, Kissed tenderly by the early, morning sun, The sound of rushing water from a stream nearby, Smoothed by the caress of the dawn of a new day, Cascading, Swirling, Crashing, Descending. We often fall, We … Continue reading
BEACHED
Cool, refreshing waters wash up on an empty, tranquil beach, The final days of summer have washed over us and we are spent, Our days pass so quickly as we grow old – or not at all, Time escapes and … Continue reading

Sunlight dances across brilliant blue skies, Weaving a kaleidoscope of light and color, Twisting and turning through boughs and leaves, It balances just the right amount of a warm, comforting glow. Each fragment of fractured light disperses into brilliance, Tiny … Continue reading

No this isn’t the mystical little town of Brigadoon, the magical town filled with legend, love, tragedy and beautiful music. It.might be though. This is a town just north of the great cities of St. Paul & Minneapolis, but it … Continue reading
BIG GOD, LITTLE ME
I stand in Your presence my God. Your strength surpasses the skies, I can’t comprehend an ant such as me could possibly gaze in Your eyes, I’m created in Your image, yet sin has caused a great distance, To wheedle … Continue reading
ARTIST’S SKETCH BOOK
Sitting by the open seaside, gazing at the sky above, Reaching for the clouds in heaven, dreaming of a perfect love, Dreaming, waiting, hoping longing for a glimpse of heaven’s door, You can’t find it on this planet, if you … Continue reading
HE LEADS ME BY STILL WATERS

ON THE WATERFRONT
Reflections of a summer day, the range of many hues, The gentle breeze on mirrored lakes, the reds, yellows and blues, The sailboats take their daily cruise, the colors quickly change, While God remains in heavenly skies, the seasons to … Continue reading
SATURDAY SABBATICAL
When we search for distant places, When we walk uncharted lands, Our hearts are filled with wonder, Our minds hold no demands, A trail that leads to winter, A path beside the sea, A walkway through a forest, Whatever it … Continue reading
FRACTURED FRIDAY -BRIDGING THE GAP

LIFE LINES
(This pencil drawing lives on our living room wall. It is one of my favorites works of Pauls art. The detail in every inch is like the patchwork of our lives. It has won awards.) Each line is like a … Continue reading

THROW BACK THURSDAY – GOD’S IMMENSITY
When my husband worked as a naturalist, he would demonstrate what the world looks like from above. He also highlighted the fact that we don’t often realize that we may be walking over an entire living community without even knowing … Continue reading
SATURDAY STILLNESS
Words intertwine through the tapestry of my mind, As the flying shuttle weaves its way through my thoughts and emotions, Each new thread engages the fabric of my being, I am pushed, enveloped, integrated, tied in knots at times. Each … Continue reading
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
CALM AFTER THE STORM
The sky declares the glory of the Lord, His power rises in the turmoil of a storm, He stirs the clouds with His little finger, And they obey, Gathering into multitudinous troops, They bow before Him, They join together to fill the … Continue reading
