Hearts Away From God

Hark!  Evil rear its ugly head once more

And lives racked with fear and anguish hold sway,

As hearts away from God bring to the fore

Mankind’s dark side goodwill would hold at bay.

Farewell To Winter

Sun grins from ear to ear.

Mind’s eye heeds tale of Cheshire Cat,

As winter fades from hearts?

Farewell To Winter

(Haw River at Bynum NC USA)

Mare's Nest

While springtime pauses, catches forty winks,

State driven turmoil simmers in world spheres.

Aye, said mare’s nest invites mob rule, methinks,

Till chaos wanes once good sense perseveres.

Benign Doldrums

Cold breeze nags treed slopes

Budding trees catch forty winks

Doldrums cloud good vibes
