Is That You, Lord!
Passing by the Church
Come! a voice seemed to whisper
Me myself with God!
Tiptoeing alone
Pausing at giant statues 
Walking to and fro.
Faces fixed in place
I can almost hear them speak
staring long enough.
Candles flickering
Shadows dancing; is that You?
Marbled eyes peering!
I believe in miracles but I don’t believe in magic; EXCEPT for this one experience.
It’s been so hot lately here in Washington State this quote hit the nail squarely on! 
Post inspired by Eugi’s Weekly Prompt “Magic”
It’s Sunday again, time for The Sunday Muse, a photo prompt!
Always moving forward
While looking back
Seeing whats beside you
Prepare for what’s coming.
It may be closer than one thinks.
This weekend our challenge here on Weekly Prompts is Invent Slang!
Examples —> ————>
My attempt at inventing slang!
MON MC meaning
Mask or Not my choice my body
For Fandango my attempt at a limerick
Once upon a time lived only Adam plus Eve
They lived happily neverending they perceived.
Meandering, a long, slimy slithering snake
I feel someone is about to make a mistake!
From that day on, the world seeks to find a reprieve.
Looking everywhere trying odds and ends
We all do hope someday to make amends.
While time marches; listen hear the tock-tick
Solution is within; this limerick!
Try this! What do you do on your weekend?
OBSERVATION
One day while enjoying a stroll
Pondering things within my soul
I came across this twisted tree
Interesting it was to see —
Created by nature, I thought!
My camera, the one I brought
Captured this dance music and all!
Although the tree was rather tall
A tiny dancer soon appeared —
My snatched image, my souvenir.
All happened while taking a stroll!
My post was inspired
Your Weekly Prompt – Observation – July 6, 2020
OPPOSITES ATTRACT This challenge is all about “opposing forces” and the use of antithesis in our writing. Our words this week are:
– ascend and descend
– hope and despair
My post in the form of a Haibun with Haiku
God indeed works in mysterious ways. Take life as an example. There are those people who are their best when they are at their lowest; in other words, they seem to sink or descend to the lowest point before rising to ascend to great heights. That is the way of life, and even God Himself fell three times when He carried His Cross before He rose. He never despaired, but hoped for our salvation.
All called to follow
Up down, to and fro we go
Heaven is our goal
Look and See Beautiful PAINT CHIPS, let’s all write a poem.
A Haibun with Haiku
I wonder from all the different types
of Hydrangea, my grandma’s hydrangeas
are best. Look, see her lime hydrangea
like a key lime pie, the smell. A fragrance so
sweet, mystical, not overpowering.
Today, however, no lime pie. Let’s settle
for a banana split. Our gratitude for that
will be overpowering for sure. After all, it
runs in the family!
From heaven above
Flowers falling down to earth
Thank you for the scent
Get out your thinking caps and join the chips
Oh! Put a spotlight; “things-to-do list.”
Fog dims my view things I might have missed.
Start arranging what is essential.
This job, I hope, to be quite simple.
Need a vivid imagination —
A pyramid, a broad foundation.
Plus fragrant tangled vines of Jasmine —
Many hours of work begins, Amen
A menu from bottom to the top
Pull to and fro as bubble gum pops
Back again forward turning to twist
Singing and dancing so go this list.
A well-done job finishing at last
Once and for all look back to the past.
Done! Now as visiting my hometown 
Finally satisfied I sit down.
Look and see that same old tired scarecrow.
Still standing in the sand. Oh, oh, oh!
I see with my mind’s eyes, God-given rights threatened!
History is changing from what was to now dismay. War, we are in it!
Peace jeopardized! Why?
Anti-Christ is here, and the stage is being set.
These actions are plain “goofy” and are meant to destroy America.
Don’t believe me? Watch and pray; don’t waver back and forth!
They, those who envy peace and prosperity, are your enemy!
Is this what you want for your children?
