When God Whispers
When God whispers, the sky turns blue.
Bright flowers broadcast every hue.
Mauve mountains shade green valleys deep
where dog and boy keep frisky sheep.
Brimming rivers run clear and true.
Forests beckon all creatures who
follow the path of bear and shrew.
Where willows arise tall, but weep
…when God whispers.
Birds relating the miles they flew
keenly warble their points of view
and I

TO AN ALLEGORICAL BREEZE OF WARM AIR
TO AN ALLEGORICAL BREEZE OF NATURE
(Apropos Of A Warm Breath Of Air)
A sweet summer breeze;
An aromatic delight:
God’s warm exhaled breath:-
My our world’s lungs soon be filled
With God’s inhaled peace and love.:-
Oxygenated
In God’s warmth, let’s seek building
A oneness nation:-

PONDERING LABORING DAYS AHEAD
PONDERING LABORING DAYS AHEAD
In the laboring days ahead,
Dawning with continuous trials,
And subsequent tribulations,
Let’s not be like sheep
In a slaughtering pen;
Rather, let’s be as lambs
In the garden of God:-
Armed with faith and hope,
And God’s divine guidance,
Let us, as the Psalms remind us,
Journey onwards to overcoming:
“Defending truth, humility, and justice”:-
For indeed, our God is a God

Dweller of our heart
Within lies a twinkle
a candle quivering
as we yearn for connection
to the source of the
radiance pulsing within our core
from our dash
of universal within-ness
glowing deep in the
heart of each of us,
and every single being,
and thing under the sun.
A spiritual stem cell
within a seed,
within a tree,
within a forest,
within a land,
within a world,
bathed and sustained

Morning Light
Tanka-Haiku Poetry Contest //Sponsored by: Oliver Mckeithan
( 3rd Place )
Written: July 30, 2025
Sunbeam warms my face,
drags me faintly from my dreams--
the hush of morning
covers me in tranquil vow,
a new chance to start again.
Sun peeps through curtains,
gets under my dozy skin-
day begins with hope.

Come to the Waters, Adaptable
I flow like a river that moves around rocks,
Molding like water splashed into cup or box;
Like tides conforming to the force of the moon,
A stream twisting through a bending valley's tune.
A soft air slipping through the narrowest cracks,
A wind that changes paths with no stops and tracks;
Like a smoke coiling around every corner,
A kite adjusting

Flight of a Butterfly
Slowly walking the path of life,
winging with challenge, joy, and strife.
I came upon a butterfly,
floating, flittering in the sky.
So lightly gliding through the air,
I came to a stop, just to stare.
Created with such symmetry,
designed to live a life so free.
Like a butterfly’s flight in wind,
harder at first than in the end.
Life is seen by our

As it Should Be
I saw you today,
in the wild brown eyes
of a doe. She studied me
with an intensity I’ve never known.
I wondered why she didn’t run away.
I heard your voice
reflected in the hawk
circling overhead. His power
magnified by elegant grace, and I
was honored to have you watch over me.
I

Protection Tree
There will never be
A story told
That does not measure
Hope so old
As in this tree
With shading bow
As here I sit
In writing now
For in this ancient
Solid form
That buries deep
Under the norm
Of human treadmill
Feet that scurry
A wisdom lies
Below the flurry
Such gnarly skin
Yet seasoned clothes
A message tall
This tree bestows
For those with eyes
For those with ears
A whisper to

Go out into Nature every day
By Michelle Morris

Lying in the grass
Surrounded by tiny daisies
I feel like I'm part of this spell
Here where Nature plies Her Magic
Here where the soil is cool
And the grass
