I Seek

Lost in the view
Of the red and orange sunset...
Gazing out to the horizon,
Staring at the sheer stillness of the water
I seek myself; I ask myself
Who am I?
As I search for more.
To seek answers to my questions,
And reaching out thirsting
With my open heart;
Understanding and not struggling,
Not holding back...
Grasping onto love that can move mountains:
God’s love

A Day

Today, I battled…
Today, I cried.
It was one of my worst days.
I heard critical voices
In my head~
I almost fell down.
I sat and prayed to God;
climbed my way back,
And gave thanks.

Psalm 105:4

I weep no more,
My sad eyes sleep.
Close not my eyes~
Awake, awake!
See, see;
I see His face
My heart is filled with glory!

Their Secret

The sky was mysterious~
A tiny burning lamp, carried by small children
Lit up the path of the dark earth…
The glowing light guided the way to unknown secrets
Of the charmed woods….
Not afraid of the darkness they chattered away,
Eyes aglow, searching,
Listening for any bustle, any magic,
Any sign of fantasy creatures….
Passing the crystal waterfall,
Which sprayed diamond bubbles of water
Across their tiny faces,
They sighted the secrets and stopped still
Not afraid; this was their dream…
They giggled amongst themselves
Pondering….
Their secret was theirs
Never to be told….

I Rejoice In This Moment

I snatched up today
The mist in the morning
A shining sun heating up the golden earth
A diamond day with its beautiful sky
Soft clouds floating softly by
The smell of perfumed flowers
This hour is mine
To think
To pray
To talk to God
Now, with the closing of this day…
I rejoice in this moment

Listen

Listen to your thoughts
Hear the beat of your heart
Free yourself of unhappiness
Make time in your life to live in peace
And breath in the Love

What Can Be

Life does not have to be
A product of the environment.
It can be a performance
Of peace,
Free of hate.
Life can be musical;
With Christ overflowing.
The environment will change
When we feel God's love.
Open up to the environment around you;
Save it.

Unending and Beyond

The treasury of ancient trees
Tall and majestic timber
Their unending beauty
Created centuries ago
Reaching high in the
Direction of the heavens
Extending and stretching
Anticipating beyond

Essay on Isaiah 55

God is above all.
God's word is powerful; everyone can seek Him.
Great happiness explodes to those who come to salvation.
God can be experienced; everyone can belong to Him.
Even though we don't fully understand everything that happens,
He shows compassion to those who turn their back on Him.

Echo

There is a stirring in my soul
Refreshing all my memories
Old and new;
A new day is calling.
The gentleness of its beginning,
Soft light of daybreak
Awakening, beating, breathing
Around me
An echo of yesterday...
The whispering Spirit
Comforts me.

Together

The entrance is opened
It is ours forever.
There is no wall of division
To hide behind;
All standing together.
Wide and tall,
Hands joined and reaching,
Hearts longing,
Smiling; connected
As one.

There is Hope

Lost
Is a riddle
Of the universe.
It breathes
On misunderstandings
It can gnaw away at your feelings
Causing solitude
Panic and desperation.
There is hope in
Recognizing who you really are;
Who you will grow to be
Will be an ongoing challenge
Filled with the Spirit
of God.

Dreaming

Dreaming...
Images of fairies dancing in the midnight;
The moon so light and bright.
Sightings of shooting stars;
Falling to make many secret wishes
Where wings of beauty are brought to life.
The hearts of fairies radiate love.
The forest alive with dancing butterflies,
And wild honeysuckles sip up the morning dew.
The blowing wind foretelling secrets
Of Earth's Creation
Breathing...
With hopes and goodness.

Yes

We are called
Through prayers
And quiet tears
Silently falling
To the whispers of God love;
To the vision of his realm;
To reaching out.
We are called;
Yes,
We are called.
