Creative Challenge 262: Mature

Old friends visiting

Who is a friend?
One who will spend
times of joy and sorrow,
walk with you tomorrow,
journey on the road of life,
inspiring whatever is right.

Creative Challenge 259: The Key

The Key

He is always with you and me
Yet so many fail to see
That he sets us free
From a life of tyranny.

His love is beyond measure,
Flowing like a river.
The water’s never bitter,
Welcoming saint and sinner.

He gives us life without end,
So I am humbled to spend
A lifetime serving him,
My Key and greatest Friend.

Creative Challenge 258: Memory

A memory I have is typing with an old, now antique Underwood typewriter that looked something like this one. One thing I do still miss is the sound these old machines made while typing. It also reminds me of "The Typewriter" by composer Leroy Anderson, which you can listen to here. For other Creative Challenge entries click here.

Creative Challenge 255: Seek


Like this walking pathway, the pathway of our lives has many unexpected turns with high and low places; peaceful and not-so-peaceful climates; light and darkness; new and old; sorrow and joy. Like the forest that we see here along this pathway our lives see the forest; yet so often we miss the beauty and significance of each tree. Who is that looking at me? The still, small voice speaking revealing the truth that "It is not you who seek and find me, but I seek and have found you." Check out the other entries here.
