Vision Focused

Beyond darkness
Following light
Vision focused
Marking hope’s flight

Peace shining through
Sharing more dreams
Outlook’s fabric
Mending each seam

Wisdom takes hold
Growing tighter
Daylight of grace
Shining brighter

Actions aligned
Marching with trust
Tomorrow breathes
Feeling robust

Insight matures
Stumbling no more
Day’s sky brightens
Coming ashore

From the words of American missionary and Christian theologian, E. Stanley Jones:  "Whatever we focus on determines what we become."

Feeling Young

Landscape embraces warmth

Whispering from above

Fabric of spring descends

Sharing Creator’s love

 

Winter’s cold fades away

Transforming earth’s outlook

Tender grass comes alive

Following spring’s guidebook

 

Memories feeling young

Uncovering cherished prize

Charm awakens with peace

Filling morning’s blue skies

 

Today meets tomorrow

Nurturing every thirst

Breath of hope replenished

Witnessing rain’s cloudburst

 

Spring’s timely arrival

Beholding each snapshot

Precious life now reborn

Finding nature’s soft spot
