Life hurries past us . . . too strong to stop, too sweet to lose.
There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm.
Willa Cather (1873-1947) was a writer known for her stories of living on the Great Plains.
Morning’s gentle voice
Invitation welcomes all
New day rising
Creator’s spirit comes to call
Next steps contemplate
Opportunity at hand
Always present
Creator’s breath covers this land
Mind absent of thoughts
Tranquility extends grace
Empty page waits
Creator’s own words embrace
Time seems to stand still
Sky’s expanse frozen in blue
Quiet breeze stirs
Creator’s peace channels breakthrough
Darkness encroaches
Patient light chases away
Innocence dreams
Creator’s perpetual way
Hidden in forest’s depths
Creator’s kingdom reigns
Moving with quiet breath
Feeding nature’s unbroken chain
Spontaneous landscape
Creator’s rhythm sings
Breathing beauty’s freshness
Witnessing all that summer brings
Trees towering above
Creator fills each scene
Overflowing with peace
Reaching to heavens, grass so green
Tranquil waters roam free
Creator’s grace gives back
Nourishing youngest plants
Equipping wilderness backpack
Busy traffic drives by
Immune to forest’s sigh
Missing treasures within
Creator frames sunset’s goodbye
Along every coastline
Lonely beaches listen
Whispering spirit
Morning sunrise glistens
Along mountain ridgetop
Confidence thundering
Whispering echoes
Distant breath wondering
Along valley’s river
Creator’s pulse renews
Whispering promise
Tranquility flows through
Along horizon’s light
Reassurance remains
Whispering pauses
Sun’s setting windowpane
Along meadow’s stillness
Harmony’s joy conceived
Whispering spirit
Nature’s rhythm achieved
Thunderstorm cuts in
Night plunges into drama—
Rescued at sunrise
Dancing all alone
Searching for tranquil partner—
Sunset’s peace steps in
Scaling mountaintop
Unveiling fresh perspective—
Creator reveals
Creator’s gentleness moves
Ability to reshape
Another day, now embrace
Tranquility’s landscape
Creator’s eternal eye
Hint of tomorrow takes shape
Daily treasures, just embrace
Joyfulness fills landscape
Creator’s vision gathers
No longer covered in tape
Nature’s portrait, soon embrace
Harmony paints landscape
Creator’s elegance breathes
Images fill each dreamscape
Trove of delights, let’s embrace
Time’s patience frames landscape
Creator’s quiet outlook
Peacefulness never escapes
Innocence, always embrace
Silence sketches landscape
Glorious morning
Creator’s comfort surrounds—
Amongst blue heavens
Giants reach skyward
Creator’s breath welcomes rest—
Capturing stillness
Night’s invitation
Creator’s landscape finds peace—
Slumbering sunset
Searching for answers
Sometimes hidden in darkness—
River’s steady dreams
Searching inner peace
Fresh outlook always arrives—
Storms fading away
Searching for light switch
Positive vibes energized—
Plugged into sunrise
From Psalm 118:1: “O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His steadfast love endures forever!”
Giving thanks, praising Father
His enduring, steadfast love
Faith today, hope tomorrow
Embracing grace from above
Kneeling in daily prayer
Father listens with patience
Faith today, hope tomorrow
Transforming our impatience
Taking refuge with Father
His righteousness leads forthwith
Faith today, hope tomorrow
Overcoming evil’s myth
Surrounding witness of light
Father blazes road ahead
Faith today, hope tomorrow
Nourishing with daily bread
Grasping wisdom of Father
Skies no longer full of gray
Faith today, hope tomorrow
Directing our best, His way
From Psalm 118:24: “This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.”
Morning’s quiet retreat
Offering sunrise view
Taking splendor’s front seat
Sky sketched with clearest blue
Sanctuary of peace
Spirit’s closeness abounds
Renewal of life’s lease
Stillness felt all around
Harmony’s joyful tune
Brightening this new day
Filling every full moon
Mountain’s peak never gray
River’s gathering dreams
Shaped within ancient hands
Journey’s endless bloodstream
Tranquility’s heartland
Tomorrow always waits
Offering one more chance
Tasting now, nature’s fate
Spirit’s refreshing dance
