For Timothy Lee
I floundered, lost myself to then be found.
I shattered, broke as pieces to be glued.
His love restored me newly, wholly-bound.
No man have my emotions better viewed.

No love so warms my life as does his heart.
No face in smile could better stroke my joy,
or...

When our lives come crashing down
around us like a  hurricane
the Lord will build us back up
and restore us once again
 and as he picks us up piece by piece
all our  hurt  and pain he  will release
he will melt us and mold...

In the quiet solitude of evening I come before The Lord.
In the secrecy of my chambers I seek His presence.
It is here that I kneel before my Master and bare my soul.
Tough I fail Him time and again He will receive me.

Though I disappoint Him...

Sweet silence of a Sunday morn,
The world of weekday chaos shorn,
Not even the honking of a horn
As traffic idled,
Held back by the arms of the Law,
Impelled to wait, with tempers raw,
Stewing in the sun's hot maw,
Impatience bridled.

And as I stood outside a shop,
Wondering why the...

This is a part 2 poem. A continuation from a poem called
The Day The Running Stopped. A Bio.


The tennis racket crashed down upon him
A boy just two years old
His Grandfather came in and saved him
Before life became dark and cold.

The monster came again in third...

Protracted for your attention
Expected for a phone call 
Broke down in tears
Jolt where things went awry
My emotions went mute
Silently built up animosity 
My heart grew resentment

Realize hate turn into rage  
Let down intrude into my quintessence
Prayed for forgiveness
Ask God to heal our bond
Held on...

Restored Was His Heart, Soul And Might
   (The Woodsman)


Hollow place in the woods most deep,
now unmolested by man or by beast.
Reserved for a wise visitor's return,
a promise he swore one day to keep,
when starry night holds a big feast!

Life called the woodsman far...

My name is Shawn and I want to make that clear
It seems like I am no longer wanted around here
Washington state has done for me all it can do
Then I got a simple act of kindness from a guy like you
His name is Mike and...

Caught up in a cloud to meet my Lord and Savior
As I look around me
I can hardly see my house now
Cause I have risen wow
Miles away I still pray as I soar up to the skies
There's a new home awaiting me ahh ahh ahhh ah
And...

Your heart’s devastated; watching dreams
trickle away like the sands of time.
For after having loved an Angel,
betrayal has you feeling like slime.

Your naive heart was broken by lies,
and yet, lingering feelings persist.
But, exposed to reality's light,
shadows of love no longer exist.

You wade through oceans of emotions;
exploring...

Once faced with propositions I would rather not have done
I left the place that kept me bound
The life I chose, at last, the right one

A broken soul, a broken heart I kept hidden for so long
Lost hope, no dreams
Within myself it felt so wrong

To finally...

I was so angry inside, and God said, "give your worries unto me."

A revalation, deviation, a strong hold on my will.
A clouded judgment, a bright idea, something had a hold of me.
I sifted through countless writing's, searched through every loophole.
Till I came upon one.

My testimony...

In nineteen-eighty-five, so long ago,
a dark red B M W became
our son and wife's new car in Germany
while stationed there as Army officers.

Though many cars replaced it since that time,
the B M V remained with them
because their son eventually declared
he hoped it would become his...
