Troubles?

The "tree of troubles" may

cast its shadow

upon your life,

but it cannot block the beauty

that lies beyond

if only you will believe.

Through a Glass Brightly

"The broken pieces of our plans
The fragments of our hope
Acquire a perfect symmetry
Through time's kaleidoscope."

(Phyllis Cochrane)

Light over Darkness

"I saw that there was an ocean of darkness and death but an infinite ocean of light and love flowed over the ocean of darkness" George Fox

Poetry from the Woods

Many trees, each unique:

strong, weak, short, tall,
some old and falling down.

Trunks, leaves, branches:

some falling off,

still bleeding.

Roots exposed:

some poking sprouts struggling

against the wound of the ax.

Some sprouts will grow:

reaching toward the sky

living, breathing, free.

Growing upward

yet connected to the earth

close to their roots.
