The sea gulls shriek at
the waves working
to move the shore.
They still laugh
when it finally shifts.
And so do we.

The God of the Jews and the Gentiles.
The God of the Jews and the Gentiles
is one and the same deity.
He loves and he cares for his children,
no matter what faith they may be.
Agnostic or firm non-believer,
his kindness and mercy extend
to ev'ryone here on his foot stool --
on him alone we can depend!

Two Haiku.
In the winter
can the song remain
after the bird has flown?
This winter wind
brings no comfort --
like the handshake
of a dead friend.
Sustaining the law of the land
Sustaining the law of the land
is what we are called on to do;
as citizens and as a flock,
we honor, obey, and eschew
all mobs and the bunk they embrace
if we are to see our God's face.

Two Haiku.
A bad blow
makes the nail
bow its head
In the food desert
a child sees a cabbage --
what is it? she wonders,
biting her nails.
Today's timericks.
Joe Biden, like old Honest Abe/wants his country bad to save/More partisan than dogs and cats/is he the one to heal our spats?/Right now the bigger question looms/Will Trump vacate the White House rooms?
Banks will lend a helping hand/when you borrow fifty grand/They will keep it quick and fun/All they want's your first born son/Your friendly banker likes to loan/so he can squeeze blood from a stone/Luckily my credit score/keeps all bankers from my door.
When I fill my car with gas/I'm offered pheasant under glass/fresh ground coffee and baguette/imported cheese, let's not forget/My local station is inclined/to serve me maple bacon rind/This gourmet splendor is a treat/too bad they ran all out of Heet.
Whoso believeth in me and is baptized shall be saved.
Buried under water for a moment of my life,
a wholly new existence and enjoyment became rife.
This simple cataclysm is available to all
who dare to cast aside the world's distracting deadly pall.
Authorized by Jesus Christ, his servants do invite
people without number to sink and then be light!

Be still and know that God is God.
Be still and know that God still reigns
over mountain range and plains,
controls the sky and vasty deep,
and all His promises will keep.
Oil the hinges of your heart
to open up a brand new start!

Today's timericks.
Biden asks for trillions more
to keep folks from growing poor,
and to spread the blest vaccine --
so I'll take a limousine
to the nearest CVS
to start spending his largesse.
Democrats in Congress, busy?
So much so it keeps them dizzy!
Arraigning Trump while backing Biden
makes their ulcers start to widen.
Republicans are more discreet --
but they will always drag their feet.
Curfew time in France is six
for Parisiennes and hicks.
This should stop the virus spreading,
but romance will need retreading --
sugar daddies home so early
will make mistresses quite surly.
