I saw our first leaf fall It surfed the breeze I’m sure I heard it whisper, “All is change.” As it passed.

Life & Landmarks
This year has been chock full of pivotal moments. Painful, dark, scary ones. Bright, blazing, hopeful ones. Exciting, joyful, precious ones. Dull, boring, repetitive ones. Such is life, they say. Made up of the beautiful and painful, side by side they sit as salt and pepper at every meal in a year saturated with grief.Continue reading “Life & Landmarks”

Hemingway was told early in his career to excise most of the adjectives in his prose. His novels became bestsellingContinue reading “Ten Commandments for Smooth Writing”
a christian carol
At this time of year, advent reflections light the hopeful way to Christmastide and like Charles Dicken’s trinity of ghosts in A Christmas Carol, advent visits us with memory past of His glorious entry into hostile and foreign territory- hope birther. The present now- darkness shatterer. And promise future- curse breaker. Hope Birther— field shepherdsContinue reading “a christian carol”

It’s another November without her. I remember the low thrum of bagpipe. I turned in the wooden pew peering toward the back of the church as the piper’s mournful tune emerged. Her kilt swung solemnly as she walked up the carpeted aisle. Tears flowed, sniffles all around me, I wiped my noseContinue reading “the waning”
