Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?
Daily Prompt

I love the language arts – both work and play for me.

holiness
and humility
Christmas

new year
on the horizon
simple lines
of barns and trees
in the fog

sometimes it seems
the older I grow
the more simple
my poems become

and yet they are
supported by years
all the ways life
challenges and grows

and I am grateful
for every day
and look forward
by God’s grace

rereading
a few poems
and pages
to hear an
author’s voice

different voices
create new songs
harmony

Be still,
and know that I am God . . .

From Psalm 46: 10
