When I think
Of all the things
That have disappeared
Gone away
Happened yesterday
My heart joins forces
With my soul
To help me understand
Why it all had to go away
Yesterday.

Feel The Presence
May 27, 2021
Feel the presence
feel the rays of sunshine
happiness and gratitude
infiltrate each waking moment
everyday.
Breathe it in
wash away
dirty anger not needed
not felt nor experienced
no, not in any way.

The Help I Need
May 26, 2021
The help
I need
I fear
is near.
I hope
I pray
it will guide me
thru today from yesterday.
I need
I fear
I hope
I pray.

Thunder Clouds Fill The Sky
May 25, 2021
Thunder clouds fill the sky
I ask myself
The reason
The reason why.

Thee

Delicately
I embrace thee
Softly
I caress thee
While with my whole heart
I unconditionally
Love thee.

I Know You’re There
May 20, 2021
I know you’re there
I’ve felt your sweet breath
upon my face, my hair
your soft voice sweetly calls
from somewhere, somewhere
but I don’t know where
your steps direct my feet
they lead me in a way so discreet
I can’t falter nor wander
you guide me, guide me there
I feel no despair
you are with me where’er I go
I know, I know you’re there.

Hold Me Close
May 19, 2021
Hold me close, hold me tight
Let me feel secure
Throughout the darkest night.
Let my tears disappear
Feel safe in a land
Vacant of fury, anger
And awful, awful fear.
Hold me close, hold me tight

Total Effects
May 18, 2021
Total, total effects
Seeing them, feeling their cause
Aand
Certainly their effect
Blessed they say
Cursed say others
Somewhere
There is the answer
The total effect of what has been.

I Look Out
May 17, 2021
I look out on the earth
and see
things going on their way.
Birds sing, flowers bloom
bees fly
pollinating all they can
they try.
How can I not see beauty
beauty
there in front of me?
Thank the Lord
for you see, he has done this
all this magnificence
all this beauty.

Cold And Freezing Rain
May 14, 2021
Cold and freezing rain
Falls from the sky
Falls
Taking no blame.
Only pours it’s heart out
Letting drops fall
Again and again
In cold, freezing rain.
