A winter warmer by garykingphotography.com

sherbet skies
speak the truth within lies
and the beauty has been burned in my soul

From:Sherbet Skies by Cheyenne Ringuette

Without warning, without expectation
The pier lights become less intense & fade away
They bow to the dawn and disappear
Reappearing at dusk in an un-darkened cape as a shadowy figure.

From: Pier Lights by Robert Sheridan

Greenan Castle by Jim Richmond

I had a picture in my mind
Wisely crafted
I took my time
Purposely painting stunning hues
Striking in their pleasant views

From: Castle in the sky… by Betty Jo Hilger

the sunrise dune by antonious (www.anthonyaphoto.com)

Stay, O sweet and do not rise!
The light that shines comes from thine eyes;
The day breaks not: it is my heart,
Because that you and I must part.
Stay! or else my joys will die
And perish in their infancy.

Daybreak by John Donne

Scrooge by ilina s

How long will you assault me?
Would all of you throw me down—
this leaning wall, this tottering fence?

Psalm 62: 3

Winter burn by garykingphotography.com

Not for me the furnace glow,
Rage of fire and ashen doom;
To sweet earth my bones bestow
Where above a lowly tomb
January roses bloom.

From: I Shall Not Burn by Robert William Service

A Path to Heaven by Brian Hathcock

I pray
Today
That He will heal your human heart
and help you face tomorrow
With a renewed sense of
Courage
Strength
And wisdom.
