About this Blog

This is not a music blog, it's really a poetry blog - at least, that's my intention right now. But there's some reasoning behind the musical reference. When I think of dissonant chords, I think of musical experiences of tension or discomfort that sometimes leave one longing for resolution (but that certainly make things more interesting)! So that is the general theme for the poetry I'll post (at least right now, I will probably change things up as time goes on.) I realize poetry is a pretty subjective experience, so if you don't like what I post, that's fine with me. Feel free to leave comments as you like. I do have to warn you that many of my posts may be spiritual or religious in nature, so if that isn't a topic you are comfortable reading about, you may want to make a virtual U-turn. I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon), but the views expressed here are mine alone. Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy the posts!

Blue sky


I am grateful
For bits of blue
Seen after many days of fierce weather
When the storm breaks, and the heavy woolen banks are willfully thrust aside
a little.

I am grateful
For the brilliant hem of white that rims that sudden opening
And for tangible, visible rays of light that pour forth
From the heavens to the earth
(a glimpse of celestial glory?)
Sending heavenly sustenance.
