"Their World"

Of course, there was no re-assurance from them that they would respond to the message I had sent. Morning had arrived. 

The day had commenced as any other, unravelling out of bed, in itself a latent form of response to the foggy conversations that...

Bundle of rules elongating the short distance between a problem and its solution
Unnecessary layers compulsorily placed on a mounted ladder with very few steps
Road expectedly smooth and direct is created with uneven stones and many bends
Every step is an independent process making the system tiring...

As the sun dips lower in the sky
And the ocean turns a deeper hue
Families pack up their children
Pails, shovels, blankets and shoes

The life guard closes up his tower
His day successfully through
No one lost in the churning surf
No one lost in the ocean blue

The coming nightfall...

As spring leaps forward expectedly
Cardinals sing a familiar song;
Announcing birth of season’s new
Perched in trees where they belong.

Hyacinths bloom graciously 
Expressing their blue sincerely;
Coloring fields that once were white
They only visit once a yearly.

Spots of snow melt slowly
Revealing peridot grass underneath.
Drenched sod cold and wet
Scents...

Malaria
With it comes an unexplainable headache
Expectedly unexpected cold
And maximum loss of appetite


Malaria
The only harmer capable of nailing down even the strongest 
In its presence,
Shivering even under the hottest weather becomes inevitable

Oh! Malaria!
The balance of the strong and weak
Whose war one cannot fight with weapons of...

She just stood there anticipating his next move. She knew of his power and his strength too. He weighed ten tons and she weighed 83 pounds soaking wet. She could see the twinkle in his eyes and so she closed her eyes and counted to...

Everlasting as the ocean is blue in the sunny sky my heart constantly is asking for answers revealed to me why. However it may seem from yesterday or even last year, tomorrow is never something that I can expectedly see clear. For friends, my family,...

Crisp cold air moves in slowly expectedly.
How nice it can feel after long hot haze filled days of summer.
Gradually the chill embraces all.
And all succumbs to mother winters icy graces.
Trees lay dormant.
Water rests in a shiny crystal state.
And the ground sleeps under its insulating blanket.
Not...

Suddenly, deceitfully, the betrayal begins.
   She comes home late, lying, hiding her sins.

Suddenly, expectedly, your doubt commences.
   Questioning her story; maybe they are pretenses.

Suddenly, intently, you look into her eyes,
   hoping to determine if it is all a disguise.

Suddenly,...

My lemon-colored hair
Sprawls out
Covering the pastel silhouette. Of my pillow.
Almost expectedly. The phone rings
Piercing a silence. That lay thick.
Immediately, I answer.
It's my son.
He asks if I want the good news
Or the bad news first. I say the good news.
He made bail.
\Walking through the precinct,
My footsteps...

Don't exist for your resume alone
Live, work with imaginative
passion
 
That is anchored on principled boldness
With poise and ease born of
graced conviction

As always, in compromising the truth
Nothing there is remotely
ennobling
 
Until you can courageously say no
Even your  strongest yes
would  mean nothing

Expectedly, at times you...

Stephen was the first Christian martyr
refusing to deny Christ but to stand fast
holding faithfully to God's eternal truth
but his death wouldn't be the believers last

Stephen was full of the holy spirit
obedient as Paul taught the Ephesian church
to be constantly filled with the spirit
having God indwell...

Some people have drama every day.
Their house burned down three times this week.
They are wearing a cast on their leg again.
Their dog ran away, dragging her dog house.
Their wedding ring popped off and down a sewer drain.
They discovered their husband has three other wives.

I know...
