A slice of life on 10 acres in the woods. Thoughts on raising 4 sons, guiding 4 grandsons, keeping up a 35 year marriage, maintaining friendships, finding memories, and trying to follow God on the journey.

Dusk
A strange vibrating
outside my kitchen window
A hummingbird frantically
beating his wings
against the glass

Stuck
His tiny beak
impaling the screen as he
struggled there,
beating his wings
against the glass

Trapped
10 seconds of terror
Rewarded for his effort
by freedom and
flight and was
gone...
