Best Rewards Poems

In ode to all who succumb
through wayward passages
lined of scribble notes
dripping ink’s savagery,
staining cursive patterns
in Sylvia-like depressions

Jarred bells ring
down lost tunnels
around each dark corner…clang
from steeples we chase
and beds we lie
draped in sadness
and shapes of
poetic happenstance

Tear drop vinaigrette
spiced of leftover lifetimes
drizzled on leafy desperation
bids a tired...

Baby, Cant we just stop and begin again
Satan has got us in a headspin
I refuse to just let him win
We are on that bumpy road of sin
Please baby, let's stop and begin 
With Gods love growing Within

For our spirit runs so deep
While we reap the...

I know your deepest fear, what you dread the most,
Still, your own desire you're preserving as a ghost.
You're guided by your arrogance; on your ego you rely.
Haven't you ever heard, the ego's known to lie?

You play your silly mind games; you think you are so...

he felt part of it

in his fourth year
he graduated from it

Now, he has a job

I seek not a robe of glittering pearls and rubies shinning bright
Give me a modest dress only not shorter than my height

A handcuff, a collar or may be, a shackle heavy and tough
The adornment for me should compliment the stature of my love

My foe wishes...

While some are always compelled to incite
Others reap rewards by being polite

Civility is challenging when views contrast
But much is gained when anger's surpassed

The social conventions of propriety
Reduce stress in a multicultural society

Acceptance of others' points of view
Even without concurrence carry you through

Exploring through debate, avoiding...

It will certainly raise the eyebrows of believers
May attract righteous indignation of the devout
An unsympathetic reaction from the indifferent 
But only a few blessed admire its vast benefit.

Free from the bindings of daily rituals any longer
Enough time to chase cherished pursuits at leisure  ...

Silent servants of the night unseen
Employed in task of uplifting men
Rendering to none evil for evil, send
Victory where brokenness had been.
Indefatigable humility, inexhaustible kindness
Christ-centered love glowing with light
Each so blessed alone knows true delight.

Rich are the sunsets that overcomes blindness
Earth's heroes unsung recorded there
Willing hearts...

I trample your attempts to banish me, 
smashing my fist with a blow 
of such crushing force 
that your gusty breath stills 
under this serpent's weight, 
as your poison races to rend my chest 
and fervent eyes split the night 
searching for faceless fears;
but evil...

We fell in love and married young,
others said we couldn’t know.
Who else could truly know my heart,
or which way we should go?

We all must choose the path to walk,
and how we’ll live each day.

if we take God along...
