…joy


Walking blindfolded, but I have trust
In the arm and voice that guides me
Without sight I see the soul
My eyes cannot lead astray
Focused on her words, her thoughts, her heart
A key to communicating is revealed
Speaking openly, I too address some feelings
Fear fades, understanding is felt & peace resides
In it all, honesty is offered willingly
To grease the [...]

Day 2: Service

picture books for unmet kids
dishes done together
open ears for lonely hearts
smiles changing weather
Boiled down, its pure intent
A goodness for mankind,
With one and one united
There’s a joy in life to find
a peach with dripping goodness
sandy shells with pearly tint
sharing hidden spiderwebs
a picture of innocence
Honest words give service
An honest heart does too
Thus your gift of kindness
Has drawn [...]


There once was a lad ‘o long time ago
His bicycle, to be sure, was grand
The whitewalls were sturdy, the breaks in their prime
No equal did it have in the land
One sinister eve the man and his bike
Decided to challenge the law
Thought he, ‘If I’m quick, ‘ol Trixie and me
Can run and never be saw…seen.
So along [...]

Captain or Crew?

Life keeps coming
I greet it and smile
Yet each moment, all the while
Divvying my finite time
Unorganized and unaware
I’m tied to my commitments
Passenger status replaces commander
I’m now captained by my life
Time set aside with friends
To pull my thoughts, to meditate
Refreshes and brings a light,
A semblance of ownership again
Goals are important once more
Attention daily spent on realignment
While many [...]

Back by popular request…well, alright, I just wanted to put it up here, but anyhow…it’s an oldie, but a goodie, one that definitely has withstood the test of time…in fact, I think it may be the only one. )

Drifting away almost imperceptibly with thoughts of a peaceful day
Oh how rare the moments that rejuvenate me, awaken, and enliven my soul

Thoughts & Feelings

Tears fall and like rivers flow
Bitterly your life does bite
Stirrings within do covet those stings
Meant to teach the soul
The sky cannot hold your lofty dreams
Nor the oceans drown your faith
On the wings of wind your fears do flee
And light burns within your breast
Passion, that fuel which feeds imagination
Rises to conquer mountains of disbelief
Your heart speaks [...]

Mysterious Ways

God speaks to man. This I know.
From Eternity to Eternity his knowledge resides.
In Him, believing man finds miracles,
And the faithful man’s fear subsides.
Before our time here we walked and talked with Him.
We learned and grew to meet this fleshy life.
More specifically, our trials were known and we prepared
To continue in truth ‘mid eminent, ample strife.
God [...]
