i knew before the need
i loved before and after the seeds
my mistakes are weeds forgiven
in the friendship garden we live in

a "thank you" is a rare thing, take note when you see one, protect their environment, this world will never be the same without them

wake up ready to fight evil of mind
work every day against the pain
rest your head knowing that behind
the Holy Spirit moving good to gain

the hunger of a true and lonely heart is quenched with a spoonful, but the evil one is a glutton

i guess love also takes the path of least resistance, this is why my heart always thinks of you

tiny hand
grabbing a finger
while feeding
small hand
helping turn page
story reading
scared hand
gripped tight
crossing street
teaching hands
putting school shoes
on nervous feet
cheering hands
for the brave
confident soul
waving hands
for the loved
leaving the fold
holding hands
tears come fast
through cold bed rails
for the last

gifted, a ticket on
train, three sixty five
another, trip around
bright, tomorrow's sunshine
blessed, this old car of mine
beautiful, these spinning rocks
conducted, by the great I AM
enjoying, this crazy ride
until...my ticket clocks
