Beyond the archway, across the rocks

Where mist does linger and flowers flock

A climb, thousands of miles to the top

The mountains create a beautiful backdrop

Snow covered, white, against the bluest sky

I journey to my cathedral, in the heavens, high

My worldly place, an earthen sanctuary

Where I can go to, beyond the contrary

Of inhumane faces, and misguided beings

A place I know my God, is ever so freeing

Rest easy now, my dear friend

Let the angels be your wings

To carry you, safely home

Where the carolers do sing

Songs, to lift your heavy heart

So you know you’re not alone

Music, the heavens will impart

Hear the gentle trumpets blown

Rest easy now, my dear friend

Far away from the world at war

For God has lifted you up to Him

Your burdens are no more

Dusk ~ #writephoto

This is my first attempt at Sue Vincent’s Photo Prompt.  Every Thursday, Sue posts one of her pictures, and asks you to write based on your perception of the photo.  For more info, visit Sue’s blog.


A single light, one which shines ever so brightly, graces the heavens and earth, with a single spark. She illuminates the passing of the day, while readying the oceans for the evening tides. Crepuscular rays, emitted strategically over mountains, add to the aura of her beauty. White clouds, sailing peacefully across the water, remind me of a soft comfy blanket, waiting patiently to tuck me in. All is perfect in my world, as I breathe in the closing of today, and drift into the dreams of tomorrow.

Orion’s Belt ~ #poetry #NovemberWriting

I am, forever, a stargazer
A watcher of the night
The stars become my lantern
In the darkness, they’re my light

But there is one who shines
In the sky, such sheer delight
A mighty huntsman, sword in hand
Oh, what a glorious sight

Orion, among the heavens
His distinctive glow in the sky
A belt that shimmers brightly
Three kings, all seated high

Let him guide your journey
You can feel his woeful plight
But mind the tail of Scorpio
Lest you, too, feel his bite
