The Soul in Me


Do you ever see wild animals?

I ran in the middle of Alaska snow

As long as I ran I did not know

There were always a wild creature

Soon waiting for me .

It could have been a moose who looked

As I ran by and turned and took

Another way always seemed best

Among the snow and quiet unrest

A moose is kind but unafraid

And has chased after me, many a day

Then there were the large ravens flight

Who ran and skipped and flew in-spite

Of seeing me just ahead

and never reasoned never dread

A red fox came by once and peeked

Then on his way with his swift feet

Snow brown bear in the distance

Bison’s caught some resistance .

If you venture to go running in Alaska terrain

Be prepared for anything from snow to rain

Embracing Darkness: A Journey Through Advent


Just sit with me in the darkness 

As Advent moves in.

You do not have to fix it,

Please, just listen in our silence.

Just sit with me,

in the darkness. 

Because someone sat with me,

I was ok,

the darkness soon faded away.
