To The One I Leave Behind

To you, the one I leave behind, I write,
Not clothed in grief, but wrapped in tender song.
Though parting comes, as surely comes the night,
Our souls have known a bond both deep and strong.

No tear can dim the love that once was ours,
Nor silence steal the echoes of your name.
I go where time dissolves like falling

Full Care

Each dawn arrives with thrills forever new,
Each sunset brings delight beyond compare.
Allow the good Lord to comfort you, 
Like a mother comforting the child in her care.

Let us enjoy the best seasons of our lives,
Let His everlasting arms cradle tight.
With trustful hearts, where hope and peace revive,
The dear Lord’s arms surround us day and night.

Heaven Rejoices Over Us

How we live our lives really matters most,
For heaven’s gaze is fixed with deep concern.
Eternal issues rise - a sacred host -
And from our choices, timeless truths we learn.

It matters to all who stand dear and nearby,
Especially those who love and look to us.
We are charged to live godly, not just try,
With hearts full of

Premium MemberAll About Love

No matter the subject, poetry,
somehow, is all about love -- 
Love, a poet's bread and butter. 
Staple stapled to the writing
tip of his forever pen, and the backside 
of his often used pencil. Falling in and out of. 
Were it not for Love's addictive nature, 
a poet's heart's habitual affliction...there would be no poetry.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you can see through your own reflection,
you have glimpsed the intuition that dwells deep within.

When you see yourself reflected in the moon and stars,
you have glimpsed the Creator.

When your face gleams from the joy on the face of another,
you have glimpsed the heart.

When your heart embraces the pain and suffering of another,
you have glimpsed

BONDED STIFF

Our love knows no swiftness;
Its tied and bowed in stiffness:-

Our life of love, is no played game;
Rather, it's an everlasting bond attained:-

May our love always be like a royal evening ball;
A loving affair desired and wished for, by one and all:-

May this precious bond between you and me, ever be,
A God-granted blessed bonding, deemed

And, so, with the dawn
of a new night, we met
for song and dancing. 
Stars are made for wishing...
while suns are dear sources
of life.

A Man Of Wisdom

With measured words, he speaks his mind,
A sage and thoughtful leader, one of a kind.
He listens deeply, with ears that hear,
Not to respond, but to understand, and calm the fear.

His vocabulary is sparse, yet rich in meaning,
Three words suffice: "yes" or "no", his heart keeps beating.
He stands by principle, unwavering and strong,
No mere yes-man, he

I

Am still here
Heaven and earth 
Negotiate custody terms


Heaven became resentful

With every payment
A part of my soul is severed

How can I go to heaven incomplete?

Make Room For Him

Make room for Him - the God of miracles,
He is a wonder, mighty in power.
Our God is multifaceted, with many Names,
Lord, Saviour, Healer, Baptizer, and Deliverer.

Rose of Sharon, the Lily of the Valley,
He is who He declares - I AM, the Lord.
This season, He is moving with certainty,
On our behalf, His Hand wields Heaven’s sword.

You and I

In the realm of love, where hearts entwine,
You and I, my love, reign supreme, divine.
Like Roshani and Siddharth, our love will shine,
A bond so strong, a love that's truly sublime.

We're the King and Queen of Hearts, a love so true,
Our hearts beating as one, our love forever new.
Like Romeo and Juliet, our love will stand

Yah Protect My Heart

Oh, Yah, shield my heart with Your divine might
Grant me a heart like Yours, where love shines bright
A heart that's not hardened, but tender and true
A heart that loves without bounds, and forgives anew

A heart that cares for others, and gives with an open hand
A heart that's selfless, and understands the plight of the land

Premium MemberWhen God Whispers

When God whispers, the sky turns blue.
Bright flowers broadcast every hue.
Mauve mountains shade green valleys deep
where dog and boy keep frisky sheep.
Brimming rivers run clear and true.

Forests beckon all creatures who
follow the path of bear and shrew.
Where willows arise tall, but weep
	…when God whispers.

Birds relating the miles they flew
keenly warble their points of view
and I
