I Pray

Where did time go that you grew to be so?

Where did time show us a smile?

I look on the shadow of who you once were

I know my heart will be sad for the while

I took on a new place when you came in my life

You brought me happiness and gladdened my heart

You were smart, you were pretty, you were one of a kind

You were special, right from the start

But now you whither in a shell of that girl

You live in tatters and rags

How sad my heart is to think of you now

How you will soon have nothing but bags

No friends to call out to, no home to live

You gave it all up for nothing but air

I don’t understand the choices you’ve made

But you know that I always have cared

I remember you starting to go down that road

I remember you were just but a girl

You were too young to know cool from wrong

You thought you were the top of the world

So now I see you and know you aren’t mine

I know if I speak you will turn me away

But know that I love you and know that I care

Know that my heart hurts, and for you, I pray

When light and shadow begin to play We look at things a different way The once obscure can come to light The ostentatious more contrite The details of the inner shell Free to dance in freedom’s swell Look to see the hidden world In amazement let God’s love unfurl 🌸🌺💕🌺🌸🌺💕🌺🌸

Last Wednesday Night

When I think of Jesus on this Wednesday evening which would have been only two days prior to His unimaginable torture both by man and in hell, I cannot begin to think of what He must have felt. Did His mind race with anxiety and fear? No; for perfect love casts out all fear. […]

From the Shadows

From the Shadows Here in the shadows where I like to hide Deep in the darkness is where I abide I look at my sin and recede even more I’m shamed and in agony right to my core I look to the light unworthy and shamed I hear the gentlest of whispers […]

I Rest in Your Arms

Spring Feeling

Spring Feeling I hear the springtime circling round The songs of the birds, beautiful sound My son in the back yard playing guitar The sound of a woodpecker somewhere afar The golden glow of the sun as it begins to set The stars aching to show but it’s not their time […]
