Where Eagles Dare (+1)

Carving his message in a tree

while high above the ground

Wondering what that boy would think

in the future to have found

Would his eyes be open wide and sharp

the wind to call his name

A treasure for only those who climb

—intrepid to proclaim

(The New Room: January, 2024)

Living On ...

If life is

purposed

rich and wide

 verse is your reward

A written

portrait

left behind

— called to meet the Lord

(The 1st Book Of Prayers: January, 2024)
