Relationship

To have a relationship is to invite rejection
And in that thought, there is room for inspection
Why should we have one?
Rather a thought than a question.

What is the worth of having something that must depart?
Those who have one can’t be presumed to be too smart.
It was in the beginning that relationship began
All before God formed even one hand

Beside Still Waters

I could feel it
I was in a room I had been long before
A smaller me, but the room remained
As it had been
Long ago.

I felt stifled, breathing came hard,
Something happened here
To stifle creativity
My person had been drowned
Beside still waters

Let It Snow

First real snow today. Perfect timing as this is my first day of fall/winter vacation from classes. I like classes, but by the end of ten weeks, even with only three classes to the usual five, a break is welcome. Something about ending a semester, that at least on the day of their demise, I can think of nothing else to write about. It is a relief to be able to read only what I want to read, and not have a paper due. For the next seven weeks, I only have sermons. Not bad. Maybe I should start those Christmas cards; cards that looked so unappealing this morning. A little snow on a day that a semester ends is snow appealing!
