If Summer Could Go On Forever

sunflowers would
shine their cheerful light
through winter’s dark night

Navigation

in uncertainty
I can only steer
by faith

Faint Light

the woods
hold onto night
and cast it into a dark day

Hope’s Devotion

even as
winter’s darkness gathers
color and light persist

Through

finally seen
the exit
from darkness

Breaking Out Of Darkness

a shaft of light settles

on the blue diamond delphinium

saved from the pounding rain

Deliverance

in the gathering darkness
inexplicably arrives
the light of hope

Darkness Gives Us Light

and so
the breath of snowfall
can be seen

Lightness

slowly falling light
easing us
out of the dark

On The Night Stand

like a candle keeping
the dark, bitter winter
at bay

Darkness Softened

the black and white
of night snow
in moonlight

Heaven and Earth

between
the darknesses
a path of light

In The Troposphere

thunder heralds
the gathering darkness
fronts collide

Purpose

beauty draws us
out of the darkness
into the light

Passageway

through darkness
into light
the journey’s substance

Navigating Darkness

troubled times
the lantern needed
even in sunlight

Lightening Sky

in gathering darkness
the weathered barn
endures on

 

All Of It

hope lives
in residence
with the darkness

Amidst Darkness

color and light
salve to the worried
world

Faith

be still
in the darkness
for the light will find you
