Years After, I Have Buried You

I am standing ready. Your coat I will not wash Until I see your eyes, for it smells like you. I need to take a whiff of it so I can remember. I am standing ready to see you walk into the house, To swing your grandchildren up into the air, To hear your laugh again. To watch you smother...

Since eternity past God the Father Son & Holy Spirit dwelled in unity and sweet fellowship. Then Three-In-One decided to make a marvelous universe with an earth for life to dwell.

The Son of Love's Union
The Son of Love’s Union Two hearts swelled to twice their size the day that you were born As we counted, very gently, ten fingers and ten toes then your daddy sweetly touched your little turned up nose Two hearts fell in love with our new squirming bundle of joy Wrinkled...

A man beyond his years Lay dying in his tears Of past and nevermore Bleak death beyond the door Through raging eyes they flow The tears I so well know As they are mine and flow like wine On my soul bleak death shall dine...

Christ Child
In eternity past, the Father asks the Son to go down. Having equal Love for humans the "Yes" comes fast. When Creation leads to time, the world waits for 4 BC Marking the start of the end of Satan's long rule at last. Did Satan laugh at the poor setting for Jesus' birth here? A cry in a cave for...

A Dark Tale
I laugh as I think of it now, the dire warnings of hell Nothing could scare me it didn’t matter, on this teaching I never did dwell. I wondered why one dark night, again begging for sleep. No fear of death of dying no foolish promises to keep. It was then I found the answer as I slipped down...

My Father's Pen
The ink flows in my veins, it drips as I cry I figured life was joy I was wrong, for there is much evil walking in our streets Lies upon lies, death herself points at me Who am I to pretend of joy, when I break inside I bleed, I shall not bare any seed O' how I desire to be...
