What Child is This?
Today at our little church overlooking gulmohar trees and a blue December sky, the question was asked,“What does Jesus mean to you?” I don’t like Q&As; we could be judged in these sessions, but this morning here there are people in their teens and twenties and the few of us other gen. humans. They are… Continue reading

Be that Star
A Christmas Prayer: “Let me be that Star, Let Your Life blaze through my inadequacy, Gaze thru’ my shadows with Compassion, with forgiveness and the kind of tender mercy You’ve stood for, Oh Gentle Saviour, arrest my blindness with Your freedom to be who I was made to be, in the Light of your power.… Continue reading

Joseph’s lost head & that Other fantastic Noel!
We took them out one by one. Joseph has lost his little clay head and there’s no time to fix him back so I cover his torso with a tiny cane head piece. Can you spot Joseph? Our son Johann is blind and yes he put out each figure like last Christmas, but this time,… Continue reading

House with roof in the floor
Once upon a time there was this one roomed house with a thatched roof, and it was a nice house to a nice couple. They were happy people with enough peace and joy to go around this season and the next. Farmer Jose and wife grew potatoes and onions, they were not rich they were… Continue reading

I said a prayer for you today
I prayed that you would be given the gift of sight, but God in His mercy allowed me to see His Light all around you. Now I ask that you my child will pray too, this prayer for others: that thru’ your journey via the valley of shadows, you will leave footprints that lead another… Continue reading

Street prayers
Great perils have this beauty, that they bring to light the fraternity of strangers. – Victor Hugo. I called this one Street Prayers after a recent Haiku Jam starter, “Corner of the Street,” but maybe it was inspired by a visit few evenings ago, a visit by a little face in a shop window. The face… Continue reading

Healing Rain let It fall, whisper Its Secrets: ‘..it’s too late..’
The lyrics of a song done with my lefty guitar (will upload when theres courage to do that:). Words run off me and I can’t think except watch how healing walks in. No evidence, it crawls in a millimeter at a time. Then two steps back. Yes I’m a dreamer but positivity alone has never… Continue reading

Have you seen someone inhale music thru’ their ears…
My Jeff (Noel – no one else would put up with my messy paint tubes and books in corners and centre stage of my life), when he listens to music it’s like he’s breathing it in via ear phones. I’ve not seen someone savour music the way he does; it’s his profession (Sound) yet him… Continue reading

Lest we forget
I was born of the dust, where Light fell like a stairway, ’twas calling calling, Child of the Dew, ‘fore you even knew it, I know you.. Before you were born in the womb of galaxies of Stars, you & I were summoned to breathe, by the breath of God – falling like Dew, Lest… Continue reading

Cold bench at Hyde Park.
My Ma and Gran went at Christmas like heaven would have a heart attack if they didnt. I’m not the high octane happy worker bees they were, not me, but this Photograph got my attention just when energy levels were belly crawling. There I said it. Continue reading

When Healing comes
When Healing came It Bled. It Crossed boundaries. It broke Itself like Bread and poured Itself out like Water. All of a sudden there were too many visuals now, too many verbs and adjectives. This had been a desert, no oasis. Now, a Garden. A Garden with no room except a crude stable and hay.… Continue reading

Arrival of Departures
The Yayyy & Ouch: As 2020 signals her arrival who’s ready for another spin around the sun, another 365 solar exposures? I’m just about tucking into December, unsure that I want any change to scheduled yuletide calendar- perfect days here wreathed with red print ribbon and a graphic babe Jesu swathed in glossy paper. It… Continue reading
