Lonely silhouette
you are leaving me behind
in silver moonlight
*
In silver moonlight
I walk on my frozen tears
nothing to call back
*
Nothing to call back
barren lies my horizon
when you are not here
A beautiful snowy prompt by Carpe Diem Haiku Prompt
I sat looking
Waiting
Hoping
for One last glimpse
of us
***
There we were on our bench
the picture so clear
sweet summer fragrance
eyes only for each other
***
You held me tight
beneath the maple trees
emanating warmth
even in the fall breeze
***
Words they heard
in our lover’s embrace
carefully conveyed into the night
as though they had done this before
***
You were only a breath away
whispered never “let you go”
gave me hope for tomorrow
yet I am here all alone
***
That love so strong
had one weak link
more than tears rusted through
our loving embrace
***
So I make a vigil
before our bench
I cast my love
into the frosty night
***
Into barren arms of naked maples
and cold winter air
“please hold my dreams tight”
they hear me whisper
****
I listen for hopes of you
things not spoken my dear
perhaps no one will hear
but maybe they will get
through to you
This poem is in honor of the men and women whose love was separated forever by disaster the day that Pearl Harbor was attacked December 7, 1941.

Love had burst a hole
in her resolve
she succumbed
mesmerized
by his affection
***
Gasping for air
she came up
for a stiff
gust of
reality
***
The spell
was broken
reason returned
love
crumbled
***
Her life is a barren
cloudy
lifeless
afterthought

Learning to live by the indwelling life of Christ.
Gud skaper noko nytt ved sitt Ord og sin Ande, vi kan ta imot det i tru og få oppleve at han gjer sitt verk med oss. Hans skaparkraft verkar konstuktivt i våre liv og skaper noko som er verdifullt for oss. Naturkreftene verkar nedebrytande, i fylgje entropilova, men Gud er Ånd og det som er født av hans Ande består. Jesu frelsesverk er fullbrakt og fullkome. Han er den siste Adam, som er ifrå himmelen og som for oss har vorte ei livgjevande ånd. Han gjev oss den Heilage Ande frå himmelen av berre nåde. Han gjev oss det evige livet.
Looking ahead, without looking back (too often)
Thanks for following a cowgirl on her crazy life journey.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. - Edgar Allan Poe
