One Single Impression: Nest

.

Nest

O once I was free as a bird.
Came along a pretty pullet,
changed me then--a roosting fellow,
a bird who is no longer free.
Now I'm in at seven each night.
I share her table and her nest.

One Single Impression: Marriage (a limerick)

.
Marriage

Little Margie had a crush on Georgie
Kissing was her skill--you bite squealed Margie
They tussled on the floor
Ouch, Margie cried for more
Soon Momma said, marry her she's pudgy

One Single Impression: Struggle

Struggle

My struggle is not
with the world, it is within
Deeper than within,
not with demons or people
My struggle is not
with them, it is purely me

A contradiction
hereby looms, had I been pure
no trouble would be
Troubles I have, I have sin
Though Jesus has saved
clearly my will vies with His

Pay Devil my dues?
Could becoming a monk help?
Live on the mountain
pray every day all day long?
Come close to the Lord
surely He'd purify me

The church we visited here was on the main drag Dubrovnik, Croatia.  I cannot tell you the name or its exact location without looking at my guide book which is currently out of pocket.

One Single Impression: Nature

.

Nature
 
Mother calls come be
feast your eyes sooth your nostrils
grandeur yet so close
