Haikuing the Song of Songs 2:7, 3:5, and 8:4 (Read 'em!)
A Tanka
Repeated refrain:
"Don't stir up love 'till it's time."
Control your passion;
let it simmer for a while.
You'll lose no joy for the wait.

I'm thinking of reading Fleming Rutledge's The Crucifixion, using @derekvreeland.bsky.social reading plan. Problem is I'm a very slow reader. We'll see. (Dates on the photo need to be adjusted).

This morning's gospel reading landed well on this dark day for our Province.
Jesus said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life."
(John 8:12) 🕯️
If years were letters, the average human lifespan would not be longer than this sentence.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.
"Grace and peace to you..."

Yes. Not many. Thankfully, it's also the name of a large chain of nutritional supplements stores, so it balances out.

Never mind jobs you had, tell me five classes you took at university.
1. Golf (In which I met my wife. Never took a more life-changing course.)
2. Remedial English (French is my first language)
3. History of the Israeli - Palestinian conflict
4. French-Canadian Litterature
5. Italian
Rude 😂 😭

Haikuing the Song of Songs 5:10; 7:6; etc (Read 'em!)
While the Lord favours
the heart over outward looks,
these lovers are not
indifferent to beauty.
She's "beautiful". He's "ruddy".

The secular "monk mode" is very much lacking in Psalms.

I can park here "until the end time". Is that already, and not yet?

A Tanka
Jewels, lilies, a
heap of wheat. Twin fawns, mixed wine,
Lebanese tower.
Metaphors and similes
stir the imagination.
