Preaching the Word every Sunday, in the spirit of affinity and accord.

I always knew that I would preach, for I had...

Learning is ever fun studying alone. 
Enjoying hitting the books exploring to the prime, 
Is always great in crazy zone.  

We are never satisfied unremitting. 
Each hardly goes a...

Chained angel is brought forward
To face his dark charges
Jury of angels in the Divine court
Has forbidden him to have an advocate
He is satisfied for he feels he can defend himself
What a pity!
Order! Order!
Here the Judge...

The arrival of spring is a double delight,
Both a welcome revival and winter's good night.
It's a frigid departure, emotional lift,
And a planet refurbished, and God-given gift.

Spring is hope and renewal, a play unrehearsed,
When the cold's...

Justice adjourns in Civil Law.
All must hear my voice.
I entered the Court Room insecure.

I stand as he enters the room.
The Judge begins deliberation.
Justice adjourns in Civil Law.

The injuries I have are the cause of litigation.
My...

It’s ironic, when I think about it…as the years pass…
the more and more I grow
the more and more I come to realize…
all the things I do not know.

My parents and my teachers helped me learn…
They...

As we walk barefoot in the sand we quickly come to understand
a lesson we would love to teach
That an enlightened grain of sand is one that comes to understand

CESSATION

That pain is like treading on bottle tops
Or stumbling into some hidden caltrops
Suddenly, as when some lightbulb pops
The welcome relief when it finally stops
Like making big gains on currency swaps
The blood pressure and heartrate drops
Yet...

Today I awoke carelessly
jostling my sheets about my bed
without a reason to check the time.
I check my email to find a familiar message;
another job rejection.
This makes an even fifty.
The cannons of black confetti my parents...

In brooding dusk they gather from the East
Arrive in twos and threes upon the trees.
Autumn beeches, now devoid of leaves,
Begin to darken as the branches heave
And teem with animated rooks.

And jackdaws too, all jockeying for...

A DOG'S LIFE. 





The dog is crying in the corner and his tail is between his legs, 

The dog is cowling like a child that's been sent early with no supper straight up right to...

When driving in Colorado or Nevada, 
where twilight crimson rays on canyons burn, 
into ancient layers of blood red strata -
on crooked roads, don't take the wrong turn.

They say, in these parts, a lonesome cowman's...

A conjunction of interests fills the hallow cries of the pleading
Dissonant voices squall the eerie tendrils of agony as if the windswept heath adjourns its 
decay

Degenerate efforts subdue the coexistence of love and hate
Concupiscence unsheathes...

So winter shows me yet again
No hint of snows we just get rain
Far too cold it's just the same
Far too old too feel the pain.

Blue crisp mornings bring a treat
To see your yawnings freeze
Birds brisk...

Comfortable Walking Shoes
Tattered, dusty soles
Complete with holes

Brisk Weather
Summer heat adjourns
Autumn wind churns

Beware Flying Objects
Acorn hits head
(Better than lead!)

Washed Out Trail
Moist air foggy
Makes ground soggy

Watch Your Step 
Trip on stump
Foot sports lump

Evening Falls
Better hustle home
Lose map?...
