Spring nature and endeavour
Daffodils’ mild scent does permeate the air.
Through the fields dogs do dither then tear.
Rabbits serendipitously spotted that sunny yet showery day.
Many an egg the local farmer’s chickens does lay.
Easter hunt, easter hunt school laxation-professor
Does bear the brunt.
Buttercup, buttercup held bashfully to her face.
Out in the fields, they fiercely chase and race.
Horses, horses are ridden

Just an extra inch
In sports as life a missing extra inch
That winnows winners from whiners of fate--
Faced with no way forward, those who’d not flinch,
The rest of chaff gets stuck whilst at the gate.
Easy never comes even tiny pinch,
A seed on its own sprouts, but not sans care,
An inch of care and life is

Hard work I am not afraid of it, in fact, I will welcome the challenge and try to make it fun
To be

Unending Endeavour
All my idols are dead and my enemies are in power. The man controls the hour try showing blooming flowers growing over coffins and hiding something. We walk and take a step only to be pushed back by men in stolen power, stolen valor falling to our death. They say we are at rest

An Artistic Endeavour
Draped in gossamer she holds her pose
perfume surrounds simple musk rose
Artist works on colour palette
Striving for tone of light brunette.
Attic is high with wonderful light
Grecian column painted optic white
Spray of green foliage on ancient cobble
Painted with precision brush does not wobble.
Distant cypress against indigo sky
Canvas holds image that will never die
It hangs in gallery forever

Triumph In Every Endeavour
Verily fulfilling my utmost best
Such makes me triumphant along life’s race
For God blesses earnest diligent zest...
Indeed, I trust* His empowering grace
Driving performance, upholding faith-brace.
Thus, I pray that in every assignment
Be it home chore or teaching endeavour
May the Lord see my sincere engagement
As service with joyous heart’s sweet savour
Midst His great partnership of good favour.
*Isaiah 12:2
