It would make sense
that upon my awakening
as the birds begin their morning song
the sound of rain would accompany them
Tears are falling
down heaven’s grey cheek
and landing in the lap
of the soil of the earth

I will be taking some time off from online life to focus on quieting my heart, my schedule, and spending time with my family for the next few days as my uncle passed away last night in Texas.
Please keep our family in your prayers, especially his two daughters, who are my age, and have now lost both parents in what appears to be a time that was too early in taking them.
Thank you.

I’m really glad I clicked on your website link! I am confined to a motorized wheelchair and love riding, as you love bike riding. I’m also a Christian author. I read you were taking some quiet time. I know how important and enriching this time with God and our loved ones can be.
Have a wonderful Easter!

Through time, may find true peace and through silence may you find reason.
I am sorry for the loss.
