We live much of life amid unique choices. Joy is anchored in The One beyond our life.

Driving at Night
Blooms of light, so red and white
along the murky road.
Headlights shovel away the night
as darkness piles its load.

Steady beams of white and maize
continually march this way.
Knobs of white stand on display
as signs we must obey.

Multicolored lights dance free,
proclaiming wares for sale.
Gasoline’s the sign I see
for thirsty car’s detail.

Green signs, yellow signs, and red,
a book, that car lights read,
preparing us for what’s ahead
to wisely drive each deed.

The droning of each passing mile
can rock us near to sleep,
but we’ll be home in a little while,
where pillows rest us deep.
