• ~The Decision~

  I gathered my wits about me…
  Not daring enough it seemed…
  To be viewed as a louche lady…
  Whose character teetered on shady.
  I wiped my hands on my pinafore…
  Now sullied and stained…
  Not crisp and pressed…
  As it had been before.
  Oh, if only I had not left home…
  If I had not walked out the door!
  But there was no turning back time…
  This lot, this moment…
  The decision to go there…
  It was mine.
  I had participated…
  With reckless abandon…

• ~They Served~

  In days gone past…
  As memories last…
  They served us well.

  And some lived to tell….
  Of the lives lost…
  Of war’s hell.

  Reliving moments…
  That will not die…
  Giving their all…
  For you and I.

  Friends taken…
  Lives shaken…
  Serving with loyalty…
  To protect those…
  Such as me.

• ~Traveling With The Spirit~Sunday Snippet~

  TRAVELING WITH THE SPIRIT

  Guide my heart
  Guide my hands…
  Still my fears

  As I stand.

  Ever ready
  To move ahead…
  Stagnant thoughts
  Shall I shed.

  Driving onward
  Into lands unknown…
  Soul fixated
  On the Throne.

  Days and miles
  Pass swiftly by…
  His loving presence
  From on high…

  Shelters and nurtures
  Whispers and sings…
  All to His glory
  Will He bring.
