Retreating
Waking up early
Catching up from yesterday—
Bit more snooze can’t hurt
Challenging
Hiking endless trails
“Invigorating” you say—
Always one more hill
Intervening
Daily plate too full
Unplugged social media—
Valued time freed up
Life may not always feel like a picnic, but at least one can stick around for desert.

I dwell in possibility.
Life is a spell so exquisite that everything conspires to break it.

Nature lives forever
By her Creator’s hand
Nourishing spirit guides
Sunrise greeting each day
Life revolves ‘round her grace
Lighting earthly journey
Gentle winds bring comfort
Music from nature’s band
Breathing with its rhythm
Grassy plains stretching far
Lofty mountains border
Sharing abounding life
Beauty arrives by air
Birds of many colors
Singing nature’s chorus
Majestic trees arise
Redwoods reaching heavens
Scaling fate’s boldest heights
Creator’s view from clouds
Seeing creatures below
Serving nature’s purpose
Rivers ever flowing
Dogged spirit guiding
Reaching each shining sea
God’s time always endures
Creation spawns nature
Breathing, living, endless
