A writer's journey continues

At Last Found

Posted on July 24, 2025 by bigskybuckeye

Conflict’s consuming breath

Tomorrow’s sunrise waits

Evening’s beating rhythm

Will darkness be mankind’s fate?

Each hour fails to open

Anger’s agitation

Whispers breeding chaos

Peace scouting for its station

Searching for safe harbor

Bumpy shall be ship’s ride

Echoes’ explosive drift

Stormy waters’ rising tide

Calmness now surfaces

Persistence pays each debt

Voices now standing down

Courageous steps quell each threat

Tomorrow comes about

Darkness has run aground

Morning works together

Blessed spirit at last found

In almost everything that teaches our everyday life on earth, God is pleased when we’re pleased. He wills that we be as free as birds to soar and sing our maker’s praise without anxiety.

From Isaiah 43:1-2: “But now thus says the Lord, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.“

Aiden Wilson (A. W.) Tozer (1897-1963) was an American pastor and Christian author. He served as spiritual mentor for many Christians.

Born into this world

Gifted with abilities—

Watching out for self

Keeping hungry wolves away—

Nourished in spirit

Incentive

Many roads ahead

Opportunity’s pathway—

Making wise choices

Grenville Kleiser Quotes

Posted on July 22, 2025 by bigskybuckeye

A great river is not aimless. It has direction and purpose. So also must a good life have a definite aim; all its strength and fullness must be turned in one direction.

Be grateful for the joy of life. Be glad for the privilege of work. Be thankful for the opportunity to give and serve.

Grenville Kleiser (1968-1935) was an American author. Many of his writings offered inspiration and guidance for personal development.

Monday Memories: Evening with Family

Sun sets on another day

Evening calls, wanting its way

Family gathers around

Home now, love and peace abound

Night sky envelopes the land

Stillness breathes on high command

Supper cooking, hunger calls

Mom’s spaghetti and meatballs

All hands on deck, helping mom

Frenzy soon returns to calm

Television calling out

Favorite show brings a shout

Mom crochets, sitting nearby

Dad reads book, about Shanghai

Final chores, homework to do

Soon slumber stirs up its brew

Before the last light goes out

Prayers praise God, so devout
