Facing Forward, Pursuing Progress
I have plenty of moments when I don’t trust my gut. When my heart screams out, but I don’t believe that it can be right. I’m working on that, though.
I deeply value the arts, and have encouraged many to pursue that path. Even when it’s likely they’ll not attain wealth and privilege. So, this post sings to me.
So, I pray you find your place. Find the beautiful place within yourself. And share it boldly.
this late winter morn
a sign of impending spring
waking to birdsong
within the darkness
listening to the rainfall
the night's progression
a few hints of snow
guarded by the bitter cold
graced by the starlight
sunlight's gentle way
moving slowly over snow
clouds cover the sky
Another day with snow. This snow, though, has settled in. Nothing new during the day.
I created this in Canva, which is a lot of fun.
in the winter's sky
mountains rising through the wind
beyond bitter cold
the morning snowfall
soon to be trampled by life
fading in the sun
The past few mornings have featured snow. Usually it’s melted by early afternoon. I’m grateful that it’s not become a giant ball of ice overnight.
while the clouds moved past
winter's power continues
sleet and snow descend
this winter rainfall
gently upon the rooftop
silence of the night
sunlight in the cold
bitter frost upon the grass
the grace of my coat
It’s been a cold couple of days here on the PNW. Looks like it’s been quite cold (brutal?) throughout a lot of the US. I’ve had the additional annoyance of fighting a nasty and belligerent cold. The remaining symptom: coughing. I’ve had to reschedule one dentist appointment, and that looks like it’ll become two. Sigh…
I hope 2025 has been kinder to you.
