You light up the sky:
thin streaks of pure electricity;
powerful and vast;
the prelude to nature’s rumbling thunder;
a reminder to all … More God’s light show

The window above
Dec 8, 2017
I sit on top of the mountain:
hearing the Chinese tourists behind me,
Americans too – that unmistakable New York accent,
The French and Germans,
other Europeans,
Indians,
those from elsewhere in our continent.
A tapestry of humanity… … More The window above
Morning Light (The Abode of Peace)
Nov 17, 2017
I’m captivated by the glory of early morning light
hitting our beloved, majestic mountain.
That timeless memorial of this place,
Put here by the One Whom no man can match,

Stolen moments
Oct 30, 2017
Over a decade later,
I sit here again.
My beloved rooftop.
My fortress of solitude.
My former home away from the stresses of life.
I close my eyes,
Shut out the visual perception.
Experiencing only my other senses… … More Stolen moments

Suburbs lay quiet,

Birds alone, birds in flocks.
People in flocks, gathered in the single, man-made vehicle of flight. … More Book 2: Rise
Book 2: World-view
Sep 17, 2017
Keep the world away.
Don’t turn on the radio.
Keep yourself away from the ideologically-tainted programming that entrenches itself in your home via the TV.
Reject their news media.
Their sensationalism.
Their obsession.
Their unhealthy fascination. … More Book 2: World-view

While the world goes on below,
I am free, I am calm.
A place, so far from them all – yet
close enough to reach quickly. … More Book 2: A bird’s eye view
Memories of a past life
Nov 14, 2016
Warm days, spent playing in the garden.
Oblivious to time,
Free of all responsibilities.
Childhood
in it’s purest form.
It felt like every day was sunny – no matter the season… … More Memories of a past life
Let it flow (part 2)
Dec 1, 2015
This is a follow-up that’s long overdue. It’s almost 2 years now since I published part 1 – which was a look back on some of the more creative posts on this blog over its history. I’d intended to do the follow-up a few months later, but like so many things in life, it never … More Let it flow (part 2)
