“Make it dark, make it grim, make it tough, but then, for the love of God, tell a joke.” ~ Josh Whedon

My mind was entombed
In the dark night of my soul.
Then it dawned on me …

YAWEH ELOHIM

YAHWEH ELOHIM

This is the first time I have posted words gleaned from someone else.  I created this little site to be a place to pair my own poetry with images from others … but these words from my pastor so richly and deeply touched me, I wanted to share them here.  As is often the case, one of my husband Keith’s photos serves as a perfect backdrop.

If you do not know this Yahweh Elohim Pastor Kain speaks of, I would be honored to introduce Him to you.  Feel free to leave a comment below, with a way to get in touch with you.

Hushed splendor

echoes through rich autumn forests,

softly laden

with a palette of Eden’s origin.

aging winter bark
cracks, moans, fades, unfurls
much like this old girl

Winter streams give life,
Yet how icy are the veins
Through which blood runs cold.

Chilled cerulean night
Ignites
Flaunts afterglow

Brief thaw, pre-spring
Sparrows share what little’s there
Charity takes wing

There is a season –
A time for ev’ry purpose
Under the heavens

(Ecclesiastes 3:3. A found haiku)

It’s best when
It’s not the hard places
That stand out.
