Heaven Bestows
Catherine yawned today
made no mention of the prix
she had to pay
Love is a cussing word
She did the best she could
Gonna reinvent the wheel
The swallow always knows
and the doughty willow
fades to grey
And how heaven bestows
whispers to her flock
but we turn ourselves
into vessels of hope

Winter Bestows
First sight of fallen white virgin snow
Tats lace patterns on window panes
Grandma's breakfast stirs the house.
Wood burning flames chatter
In the old fireplace.
Festive winter
Children take
In its
Lace.
Charm
World cloak
In loose flakes.
Tinsel snowman,
Red Birds rustle the
Winter evergreens, and
Denuded trees by the front
Open porch greeting passersby.
Sun melts deep, shadows seize a cold night.

Suppressing all that hovers,
truth saved by ivory silk covers-
I long to feel the calm life used to give.
So, I tarry and stroll along shores of woe,
stacking sandbags against the river of
tears I sacrifice just to feel the silence…

I thought in time you’d heal from my devotion
as your

The Awe Autumn Bestows
When Autumn rises, I shall seek her awe,
for crimson leaves descend with their soft grace.
On canvas I see sites I long to draw
while feeling the cool breeze against my face.
Some colors shade the dark to bestow light.
Medallion grounds with beauty in my view,
the rays ascending down from heaven’s sight.
The birds fly south

God Bestows Blessings
God
bestows
great blessings…
plenteous, precious
overtaking* us
with heavenly treasures
while we hearken unto Him
and diligently do His will…
…ministering as faithful stewards,
…serving with joy, pleasing Him by faith’s might.
*Deuteronomy 28:2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.
