They flowed easy the tears of her
In her core was a kindness’ river
With a heart of gold a love too pure
Her bags were full with pains to endure!

Married at teen and a widow too soon
Her youth dark dimmed an eclipsed moon
Dragged to abyss and feasted upon
Bereft a blood she could call her own!

A wonder her life though ravaged much
Growing not hard she broke to the touch
Would come to grief at others’ pain
Her cheeks overflowing in sobbing rain!

As a child I felt at a time now far
On one short span spent with her
When my innocence could easily tell
Neath her frame was an earthly angel!

Wasn’t a beggar returned from door
A stray unfed to die on the road
She was there with a saving aid
Her own life though was left unpaid!

As I write this rebel locked tears
Break floodgates of long lost years
Reveals from the mist a haloed face
Of an angel of love and godly grace!

Once again the light of day shines forth
And the drunkenness of dreams subside
Sober thoughts embrace the moment
Slowly this brokenness mends inside

Oh, to be young again cries my inner child
To deprive this nature of life so vile
As the thought slips away I sadly smile
I ponder my days, so many more miles

To be with you again, my body sustains
To share but a moment, my mind remains
My soul lets me know that there’s life to be lived
Deep in my heart there love yet to give…..

A building of darkness

Fitted with opaque doors

***** curtains hangings

All lights are out

No place for light

I am one who was left alone

In this dangerous and fearful

of mind play

I only have one light

My wisdom which was
Covered with stupidity

Like a dim cloudy day
I don't want to escape

But I just want to fight back

A question in life to complete
Should we make it complicated
Let's make it sweet
stop and enjoy
what we suppose
Don't obsess on what we already know
The Holy Spirit has control
The answer in life will be complete
If we give Him our faith
We will enjoy the journey with true belief
I have no regrets in my past, glad I had that blast, it helped me gain knowledge to get me through, yet, I praise to Lord that I finally found you! Thank you, Jesus :~)

I searched for what could not be known
Refusing to surrender I walked alone
It comes to light, that which cannot be seen
Below the surface of what we once believed

I fell in love with a cheating heart
Upon a rainy day
I only wished that I could sleep
And make it go away
Jumping off the cliff of chance
Into the great unknown
The depths of knowledge are far beyond
The fabled streets of gold...

down the hill
over the train tracks
through the  abandoned
farmer's market
parking lot
past  last fall's  crispy
refugees
follow the stark tree lines
right up to
those normally plain
windows
glimmering   golden
   like stained glass
with sunrise
painting every pane
on  God's house
  on the hill
Letting the dog out the front door  early one morning last week  , I was  entranced by the sun rising.It's been so  drab and gray  this year  .   The  light play on the windows  of that church on the hill  parallel from us  was  so  wonderful .No photo could have done it justice.

Failure is rooted
Deep inside of me
It may be the
Definition of humanality
The more I try
The more imperfect I become
Burning out the pride
Inside of me
Is a task in which
I strive to succeed
At times I find it
Very over powering within me
I fail because pride over rides
When I succeed
I have, at last, reached
The understanding
This is why The Lord
Sent to us, His Son
My mind has been opened to
His graciousness, love, and guidance
His will drives me
To overcome
never ending human battle we must not succumb
We each need to reach down and find out what our purpose is.
Whether we are teachers, writers, singers for our purpose is.
To use our gifts to Glorified our Creator and God Lord Christ.
To reach into our self's to see what gifts that Christ gave to us.
So that we can start using them everywhere that we may go.
Revealing to the world the things that he has done for us.
We do not need a stage to do this either, we can do it on the street.
We can exclaim to everyone whom passes us by the great things that he done.
Actually in Christ time on the earth, that was how the people he healed did it.
The flesh  desires,
the soul/spirit  convicts,
and the mind  decides.
It's a God thing.

Thanks for all Thou dost provide!
Thanks for times now but a memory,
Thanks for Jesus by my side!
Thanks for pleasant, balmy springtime,
Thanks for dark and stormy fall!
Thanks for tears by now forgotten,
Thanks for peace within my soul!!!
