Writer's Notebook

Do you enjoy writing or reading poetry?  Most of the posts on Big Sky Buckeye are filled with poetry, but I also share short stories, photography, and a few surprises along the way.  You are invited to sit a spell and find something you like.  I enjoy sharing my curiosity through my writing.  You are welcome to like, comment, follow, share, or reblog a post.

The tabs at the top of this page offer quick access to my most recent posts and quotes. Additional tabs allow you to check out older posts dealing with the themes of Christian and general poetry, short stories, and other posts.

Big Sky Buckeye has been in motion since October, 2018. After retiring from teaching after 40 years, I was looking for a place to land. It has been a welcome blessing to meet other writers and readers.

My wife is also a gifted writer in her own right. She published her first book in July, 2025. With a theme of Christian family, BITS ‘N’ PIECES OF MY HEART, offers an outlet for her love of Jesus. The book is filled with short stories, poetry, and devotions for more mature readers. For younger children she shares energizing activities and fun songs. Her book is available on most online bookstore sites.

Faith’s trust in God grows when we stand in the light of His grace.

When our lives are filled with peace, faith, and joy, people will want to know what we have.

From Deuteronomy 31:8: It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; He will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”

David Jeremiah (born 1941) is an American pastor and Christian author.

Gentleness of sunrise
Balance breathes again
Sharing wonder of light
Landscape sings “Amen”

Another soul wakens
Patience gathers near
Offering way homeward
Today, never fear

Joy softens hardened heart
Grace deals one more hand
Playing out game of choice
Hope’s journey shall stand

Waves of freedom compose
Tomorrow’s high road
Navigating with trust
Life’s spirit reloads

Harmony overcomes
Each moment to prize
Uplifting from heavens
Tender at sunrise

From Psalm 121:8: “The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time on and forevermore.”

Tomorrow full of hope
Grace offers blessed place
Scaling life’s icy slope
Trusting Lord’s steadfast peace

Father’s eternal plan
Heaven’s angels rejoice
Imparting truth to man
Speaking through Savior’s voice

Heavenly depths of love
Holy Spirit imparts
Lasting hope from above
Filling Christ’s perfect heart

Man’s sorrows turn to joy
Joined with Spirit so bright
Walking with Christ’s convoy
Embracing mercy’s light

Resurrection’s clear day
Jesus bears every weight
Forgiving sin’s decay
Opening Heaven’s gate

From John 16:33: “I have said this to you so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you face persecution, but take courage: I have conquered the world!”

Sometimes one finds himself so consumed with the joy of another day that he needs to pause to pray for others seeking Christ’s peace.

Grace defines you. As grace sinks in, earthly labels fade. You are who God says you are. Spiritually alive. Heavenly positioned.

From Ephesians 2:4-5:  “But God, who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which He loved us even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved.”

Max Lucado (born 1955) is an American pastor and Christian author.

Day’s Early Outlook (Haiku Series #382)

Refreshed

Tender morning rain

Nourishing landscape’s spirit—

Heavenly bounty

Embodied

View of morning sky

Peeking above lofty trees—

Life rises to light

Anticipated

Chill of morning air

Catching each northerly breeze—

Summer winks at fall
