How much do you loveDo you still love me Jehovah. If you do, why are my troblems so many. Why are my enemies like the grains of the sand. Why is calamity my predator. I am afraid to chose, to talk, and to act because the repocussion is like an untimely bomb. I chose to serve you, and yet...

Our Better AngelsDon't meadows soften the uneven routes?
Aren't wavy seas engulfed by endless shores?
Don't rugged trees have within them sweet fruits?
Doesn't truth shield the cores of mores?
Stumbling blocks could be used as stepping stones.
Thorny paths can turn into floral beds.
My inner shrine has secret sacred zones.
To till my soil of soul, I feel no threats.
Sunbeams are spread...

The birthright
Do not mistake silence for peace,
nor obedience for order.
A chained heart can smile,
but it does not sing.
There is a flame born in every soul—
not to burn,
but to become a lantern.
To lead.
To warm.
To remember the path home.
Freedom is not permission.
It is not granted by paper or throne.
It is the breath between thoughts,
the courage to speak when...

Even nowEven now,
with your hands still stained
from the thing you did not mean to do—
you are not beyond the river.
You are not lost.
Even now,
with the bridge burned,
with the silence ringing where love once stood,
there is a thread still holding you
to the center.
Even now,
when shame has folded you small,
and the mirror shows nothing but smoke—
there is a...

Blue-Eyed BoyBlue-eyed baby.
Eyes as blue as the ocean.
Hair as blonde as the sand at the shore.
Blue-eyed baby, how you’ve changed my world.
Blue-eyed boy, how you’ve grown.
How I love you more than all the shells in the sea.
Shine, my beautiful blue-eyed boy, may you brighten the day of everyone you meet as...

Blessings UnusedWhat is a color
obstructed
What is a sonnet
untold
What is the price
of reluctance
Tainted in silver
or gold
What is the weight
of your damming
What is a blessing
unused
What is the lifespan
of choices unmade
Measured in freedom

White Lace CascadesWhite lace cascades,
string beads of light
fall from a quiet sky.
There’s a soulful eye-gaze—
not quite seen,
but deeply felt—
as if the night itself is watching,
studying the stars,
navigating galaxies of hope
with nothing but longing for a compass.
Turned out.
Opened up.
Like a Christmas present—
torn,
but radiant.
Laughter and freckles
etched into knowing.
The past,
just a sigh in the wind.
The future—not yet arrived.
It is now.
And...
