Becky’s Haiku: It’s Slippery out there!

North wind spins frigid

Air: water puddle freezes.

Where you step, beware!

I have attempted yet another haiku challenge from Ronovan Writes blog using the words “spin” and “water”.

Becky’s Haiku: Feel and Space

img_20160131_155346268_hdr

Winter wind blows to

Fill all land and space til I

Can’t feel my numb face.

No more going out

In the cold; must stay inside

And let the wind blow.

Yes! Stay warm indoors

And dream of Spring when lilacs

Bloom and grass turns green.

And broken, keep in firm faith

And dare to hope again.

In view. Breathe frosty air while

Snow falls fresh and new.

Becky’s Haiku: Be Still

Be still and know I

Am Lord; rest in a quiet

Place inside my grace.

Psalms 46:10a (Holy Bible New International Version):

“Be still and know that I am God.”

Becky’s Haiku: Power, Fame, or Grace?

splash-of-autumn

We desire power and

Fame; so in life we race but

We just need God’s grace.

Becky’s Haiku: Petals of Grace

img_20161001_093249005

As autumn gently

Departs, drifting leaves like loose

Petals touch the heart.

A Heart that deeply

Yearns for an unfilled dream yet

Through time it does learn

To remain hopeful

And still believe in Jesus whose

Love never recedes.

It is that hope and

Trust in him who keeps the heart

Sure and safe within.

Inside his blessings

Of grace showered on us like

The softest snowflakes.

Each morn, he reaches

Down from heaven to help me

Be content within.

For it is his aim

That I journey each day in

Peace along the way;

A lasting peace that

Gives hope to proceed knowing

He’s always with me.

So I may live each

Day with a hopeful heart touched

By petals of grace.

 In this wooded park

Past the tall rushes, one might

Hear a singing lark.
