What now remains
dusting of glorious past
the winter’s demise
*
the winter’s demise
none weep over your passing
as white turns to slush
*
as winter turns to slush
we sing of new days ahead
look not to what’s spent

The prompt from Carpe Diem is Zansetsu “Remaining Snow”
I stand on the edge
where darkness
with a forked tongue
licks at open wounds
into my weakness plunge
I stand on the edge
where darkness
grasps at my open cloak
causing me to fail
bruising my last hope
I stand on the edge
where darkness
stealth it lies in wait
comes with razored teeth
knowing I’m the bait
I stand on the edge
where darkness
seeks for my demise
swarming to my end
disgusting are it’s lies

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
