Fear gains it’s power

Loving our neighbors?

From the seeds of our distrust

Fear gains its power 

Rage’s Deceptions: A Haiku

Something to beware
Rage’s deceptive power
Corroding our souls


The next in my exploration of rage.

Counteracting the rage: a haiku

Fear births rage 

So easily exploited

Instead, speak of hope 

Countering rage with rage isn’t creatuve, isn’t beautiful. We only become more divided, leaving more scorched earth, more broken. We must remember community has value, too. 

This Age of Rage: A Haiku

In this age of rage 

Where invective flows freely 

Seek this voice of grace 

My Writer’s Brain, Awake In The Dark

​I want to sleep 

I want to write 

I want these two 

To align in 

Daylight 

Time for a Friday Haiku

A Friday haiku
What is the root of its joy?
Delightful freedom

Happy Friday, everyone!

Feed your soul joyĀ 

Just pursue your dreams
Seek out joy to feed your soul
Fight hard for your heart

May your week be filled with blessings. 

Dreadful thoughts from a young mindĀ 

​“My dad is dying”

My son’s friend was telling me

“I don’t want to go”

“Not there when I needed him”

Dreadful thoughts for a young mind
