Heaven's Glow

 Remembrance is fondest,

when thought of you 

in every great 

or tiny pew.


Forever you are near

or far

so I left the door ajar.


Push it open

and walk on in

because with you

I have no sin.


Humanity would have me bow my head,

instead I set my gaze

on Heaven's Glow.


And within my memory

is what I missed

without rebirthing

an ancient past.

The Puddles Of God’s Speech

 There’s a chain on my point of view,

contained by perspective’s shady skew.


Found peace pouring into The Puddles Of God’s Speech.

A sidewalk screaming at me,

but I can’t see ahead of me.


The rain lets up.

I ease  my gaze from outdoor view

and feel the solace of the windows cue,

 His speech once more.


A moment we had, rejoice and be glad-

For these are the times we know

 what keep and what to throw (away).


So wisdom stings

like the tearing of butterfly wings.


Wings I cannot see beyond

the sidewalk of falls

and knee-scrape heartbreak.


Wisdom is the chance

to breathe in a cool summers breeze,

while standing up on tattered knees.

As We Walk

 I can build

on your love.


Creator, I am,

a servant

to the debts of history.


A profound loneliness,

a new loneliness.


Uniform in mission

to build onto your love.


A reminder-

we are the people

who leave our blessings

behind us

As We Walk.

You Bet!

 Around the corner of hope lies

 a great big grand surprise.


In darkness idles

the worries inside.

   Hold back

 for a lack

   of confidence. 

An unknown treasure

of the greatest measure.


Who can see around

the corner of hope?


We are concave

sits melancholy

punishments of the wall.


“Have I done my time yet?”


“You Bet!”


But I took one for the team

     or so it might seem,

    and happily embrace

   the hit of seeing someone happy

                 at my expense.
