Hello Blog!

Two things today...

ONE: The garden is LOVING the rain!

Here are Daffodils #2 and #3. More on the way. These currently sit on my desk. The tulips rise a little bit more every day; I'm a bit worried they are getting TOO much water! (my mother says its fine though.)

TWO: I have started "Clouds".... here is what I have so far:

both grey and white
simultaneous
dark and bright
bring forth rain
throughout the night
blockade the sun
stealing its light

crash boom crack
lightning strikes back
thunder resounds
its' rumbles abound

These are way fun - particularly when the poems get more attention than my senior project and other things that graduation hinges on.

When I have time to blog about serious things, that will happen too... after March 5th i think.

sharing a goodie.

This song has been on my mind for awhile (weeks), it's called "Walk the World" by Charlie Hall (Give Us Clean Hands, Center, Marvelous Light, etc.). 

The chorus is uber sweet:

Let my life shine,
Come and let my heart shine
As we walk the world, 
we lift the bread and wine

Like the stars shine,
come and let our hearts shine.
In a dark world,
We lift the bread and wine.



first blog + poem

I like to write; many people dont know this. Write what? Poems, essays, songs, rambles, anything really about random stuff (random stuff = Christian things and nature things mostly, and alot of the time, they go together). Sometimes they are silly, other times they are serious - or somewhere in between. I tried to blog once, but I failed horribly.

anyway, here's the latest poem:

Hail

there's none like it;
i find it quite swell.
ice in the sky,
failing to melt.
hitting the ground,
bouncing to and fro,
little pitter-patters,
too dense to be snow.
