I saw
you
falling down
I saw
rocks slip
crashing
all around
No sound
could
I hear
no breath intake
no cries
for
God’s sake
Only
falling
falling down.

Falling Down

The Answer
August 1, 2025
Already heard
the answer
Made my decision
right or wrong
Will believe
in
that answer
Made clear
and
so profound.

Let Me
July 30, 2025
Let me
see
feel
the magic
in
the world
the land
Let me
step
upon
soft ground
but not
deserted sand
Let me
envelop
myself
in
generous
spirituality
Let me
not
say
anything
that
isn’t real
Let me
be.

Can You See Me?
July 28, 2025
Can you see me?
Am I
close to you?
Are my lips moving
singing
songs
of
love?
Do my steps
follow
the righteous path
or
veer into
what’s called
a
disastrous class?
Are you there beside of me?
Can I hear
your voice
singing words
in
a pleasant melody?
Do I know
if
I fall
you’ll be there
picking me
up
Supporting me
Till the trail ends
and
we have made it
We are there.

I Have To Seek
July 22, 2025
I have to seek
I have to find
the answers in this mess
make it
Divine
I reach out
I ask
they look back at me
they don’t answer
blank
is
all I see
I must seek
I must find
all
the answers
to make my world
a place
of
peace
So
Divine.

I See The Beauty
July 18, 2025
I see the beauty
The magnificence
In all the land.
As I stand in awe of all
She reaches down
She touches me
She touches all.
She understands.

My Heart Shines
July 16, 2025
My heart
Shines
A smile comes
Spreads
Across my face
The sun beams
Bright
and
Victorious
The clouds
have
Cleared
All
is
Right
I will
Persevere
I will
Succeed
I will be
Victorious
Today
Tonight!

Hold My Heart
July 8, 2025
Hold my heart
hold me still
let me see beyond
the gate
far, far across the hill
take my hand
let’s walk we two
to a place
where forgiveness
reigns
and
gentleness
is a way of life
There we’ll stay
living
in
perfect harmony
Oh, yes
that
would be nice!

You Come To Me
June 24, 2025
You come to me
you tell me
things
I shouldn’t hear
I shut my eyes
not to see
what you’re
showing me
I close my mouth
not to taste
the bitterness
you bring
to me
I run as fast
as I can
putting safety
between
what you are
and
what I don’t want to be
No don’t come
please
anymore
to
visit me.
