An inner strength builds inside, it fills my empty soul,
The encompassing love present when my life was askew,
Needing a reason to get up every morning was my goal,
Volunteering at hospice gave me more, filling...

Tree LightingI joined the crowd last night to watch
The local Christmas tree
As it officially got lit,
A lovely sight to see.
Although it’s not my holiday,
The festiveness appealed
And as the neighbors gathered ‘round,
That spirit was revealed.
A choir was accompanied
By instruments of brass
And caroled with enthusiasm
No one could surpass.
The...

We all bring gifts to give the needy
Light the tree and sing our songs
As everyone seems to get along
Especially bright this time of year
Everyone...

Prayer of a Midwife On Worldwide Candle Lighting DayI woke up this morning
Something special on my mind
Today I must light a candle so that
Their Light May Always Shine.
I light it for the babies
That didn’t make this world this time
They died before or after birth, hope
Their flickering light will always shine.
So many couples...

by the light of the silvery moon

in the Shenandoah Valley
the firelight flickering bright

tell stories some are true some are a lie
but by and...

Chasin LightingChasin’ Lighting – In Honor of the CUA Crew!
Several rickety rides held together with the faith of the ages,
Sages some might say, turnin’ pages of things old and things new,
The chosen few, riding with the storm,
Lighting flashing on all sides,
Switchin’ gears from fears of...

Lighting BugGlow little lighting bug,
Let your bright light shine
as the air and midnight hour
all but intertwine.
Flicker with the neon glow,
just like when I was a child
watching from the shadows
of beauty-free and
wild.
You are but a treasure,...

Glowing ToadPurple twilight darkens the day.
A green tree frog jumps embracing
an ashen bark. His eyes open
to silence, as it stares within
inches of a small flickering,
iridescent lightning bug:
as it brightens up the night.
I am mesmerized and amazed
as I watch the green tree frog jump,
gripping the tree bark...
