Fall is brewing Leaves spewing Brittle remnants of the past Love thrives in bold color Beneath the valor Lies death Slowly taking Breath forsaken Shadows beckon Wait ... Is that all we get to do is wait? Waiting Is hope Waiting Precedes every resurrection ~~~ The Lord is good to those whose hope is in … Continue reading The Wait

Rising
I stand in the valley With ashes at my feet My heart once broken now burned Holy flames Tamed My past Put it in its proper place at last Letting die All seen from the child's eye Hopeless, loveless Barren, soul-less For it is He Who placed me in the valley Lie down with Me … Continue reading Rising
A Vision of Heaven
And the rain, she comes Pounding Sounding strong Do I belong? Here in the atmosphere Humid Dripping with hatred Threats treading On holy ground Prisoners bound Some taken, some turned Where are those not shaken? Where are my brothers and sisters Who walked, never balking in faith Am I alone here? Bending never Proclaiming my … Continue reading A Vision of Heaven
Heaven’s Reflection
Reflections of what could be Heaven Beyond the blue And clouds so true I could be looking at Jesus In this puddle No I am befuddled ... It's only trees Shimmying In the pool of water But wait ... There in the corner Is a circle of light That one could see day or night … Continue reading Heaven’s Reflection

Been privy to the awakening? … Continue reading His Rain
His Sky is the Limit
Pastel whisps Summer sky strips Begging To reveal an angel's wing Poking To show gray clouds making Cloud formations, All His creations His moon slivered some nights Crafted to complement the earth just right A sunset Steals your breath A sunrise Awakes joyful tears in your eyes Where would we be without He? Lost Formless … Continue reading His Sky is the Limit
An Ode to Those Who Have Migraines
A migraine In the mundane A pounding in the brain Head full of lead Would feel better if it bled That being said Please leave me alone Resting at His throne Where He invites me home The cause they say Unknown today But maybe that doctor down the way ... I … Continue reading An Ode to Those Who Have Migraines
The Holy Pearl: A #Poem
Ocean deep Where mysteries creep Sunk low to the bottom Lost and forgotten Until the light Shines bright On the open shell Story upon story she could tell Fish and anemone are puzzled The light, its source leaves them befuddled Unsure who to follow They now can see, as much as the shy oyster will … Continue reading The Holy Pearl: A #Poem
