The Angels Sang - spring


The angels sang in the silent pines
but it wasn't a song from here -
the setting sun shone sideways,
sending its light where none should appear.
Where is the veil that separates 
 when is it drawn aside?
Love exists on both sides now -
thank you Lord Jesus 
for taking us across the divide.

Peaceful Evening -soothe my soul - winter/spring



Peaceful evening
soothe my soul,
reassurance of a healing power
that we don’t have to control.
Let the birds
sing it to sleep
or send the snow to bring silence to all;
peaceful evening
soothe my soul,
as hues of blue
so faintly fall.
