Christmas Nostalgia

Another Realm
November 28, 2020 One day I’ll see, not just with eyes,To Heaven’s gate with angels rise. Where warmed by Jesus’ shining lightI’ll see in full as He gives sight. I’ll see beyond the sun, the moonHis light will radiate like … Continue reading
Some Day
November 28, 2020 The day will come, we’ll roam about.We’ll be set free to hug and shout. No longer locked inside our home,Where will we go? Where shall we roam? If we’re set free, immune this spring,I’ll pack the car; … Continue reading

Seasons of the Past
So many Christmases agoWhen I was young with eyes aglow, I’d wake up early, check the treeTo see what Santa left for me. The years flew by, the seasons changed.Priorities were rearranged. Soon came the days when I was grown,And … Continue reading
A Different Pace
December 14, 2020 The early days of my careerI kept the pace, always high gear. I helped develop and invent.So many days and nights I spent. I fed the furnace of my soulThe red-hot heat of burning coal. My life … Continue reading
Melancholy Warning
December 13, 2020 Most days I write words meant for me.I later ask, “Should others see?” If words I write share how I feelCan they perhaps help others heal? I never know if I should share.Although exposed and feeling bare, … Continue reading
