Tranquility’s Home

Posted on March 28, 2024 by bigskybuckeye

Driving life’s busy highway

Just needing some time away

Leaving busy, urban noise

Seeking tranquility’s home

Recharging worn batteries

Favorite place, freedom roams

Returning to hidden lake

Aligning with nature’s bond

Feeling every peaceful breath

Slice of spirit’s “Walden Pond”

Stirring calm with each sunrise

Refreshing body and mind

Leaving behind each trouble

Life as Creator designed

Enjoying one more sunset

Viewing water’s dancing light

Witnessing lasting comfort

Lake’s rhythm, now taking flight

Bringing each melody back

Life finds its own steady track

Renewal

Facing each mountain

Pausing, take time to refresh—

Energized to climb

Replenish

Daily feast waiting

Feeding every cheerful heart—

Laughter’s nutrition

Reclaim

Warmed with lasting joy

Cold feelings evaporate—

Welcoming sunrise

Gentle Morning

Posted on February 15, 2024 by bigskybuckeye

Gentle morning wakens

Far horizon brightens

Life stirring, yet hidden

Tiny shadow lightens

Leafless sentinels poised

Dignified, yet quiet

Nature’s hungriness growls

Winter’s empty diet

Eager deer stands alone

Daylight now discovers

Prince silently feeding

Thicket grants him cover

Dawn’s light show on display

Warm colors welcome day

Like geese flying above

Dark clouds flutter away

Lone blue heron overhead

Harmony dropping in

Landing on calm waters

Gentle morning’s check-in

Wintertime Morning (Haiku Series #265)

Out of Sight

Landscape’s stillness breathes

Each treasure waiting beneath—

Warm, snowy blanket

Clear Sky

Faithful rising sun

Drawn in by its reflections—

Brr . . . it’s cold outside!

Anticipation

Eager sentinels

Giants seem absent of life—

Tree buds wait for spring

Faith’s Heavenly Sunrise

Posted on December 31, 2023 by bigskybuckeye

From Genesis 1:3: “Then God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.”

Horizon always glows

Light penetrates dark skies

Spirit opens hope’s rose

Raising faith to baptize

Daylight shall never bend

Angelic voices praise

Saints welcome every friend

Sharing faith, peace ablaze

Blessed day never ends

Creator’s light feeds all

Love shall always transcend

Taking faith’s righteous call

Every day always bright

Fields golden and ready

Sunlight’s descending flight

Feeding faith, rock-steady

Mercy flowing downstream

Faith’s heavenly sunrise

Eternity’s light beams

Witnessing Savior’s eyes

From Revelation 22:5: “And there will be no more night; they need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever.”

Father’s Gift

Posted on November 8, 2023 by bigskybuckeye

From Psalm 118:24: “This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.”

Each morning sunrise

Father’s gift to thee

Heaven’s brilliant skies

Mercy offers free

Coffee friends meeting

Father gathers all

Grace pours out greetings

Kindness fills each y’all

Kitchen’s window view

Father sharing peace

Each tender fescue

Life’s renewing lease

From each faithful seed

Father’s blessed prize

Harvest’s bounty feeds

Thoughts forever wise

Day’s fading sunset

Father always here

Night’s trusted cornet

Rhythm always clear

From Psalm 42:8: “By day the Lord commands His steadfast love, and at night His song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life.”

Umbrella catches each drop—

Splashing through puddles
