Living for the RemnantsOnly God and prayer can heal it:
The dreadful wound your loss has made.
Find thankfulness and never quit;
Embrace what you have left today.
When melancholy cords arise
Cast dissonance far, far away
Let gratefulness revive your eyes;
Embrace what you have left today.
If you still have someone to love
And a place where a bed is made
You have more than enough...

Angel’s Heartbreak is ProfoundPreferential treatment does hurt.
Jealousy swept under bedskirt.
She pinches the harp in background.
Those black and blues strings, plucked, resound.
The eldest withdraws with lone words,
Tends to the notion of firebirds.
Flames of wind, harassing, unbound.
Those black and blues strings, plucked, resound.
Not love, nonetheless - of first things.
Very little under her wings.
Harping and lost, in tears she drowned.
Those black...

what is realwe are living light caged in form
in heart God dwells; feel His touch warm
let not fears and desires nonplus
nothing’s real, not even us
myriad illusions amuse
yet be what may, they can’t confuse
life is is dream, why for then fuss
nothing’s real, not even us
dwell in silence, rest lower mind
leave imagined knowing behind
what do we as ghost...

MemorializedTo the veteran; daughter, son
We honor you for all you’ve done.
Throughout the land, our flags we raise;
A grateful nation gives you praise.
From general to private class,
Unsung heroes and honored brass
Receive our broken, heart-felt gaze.
A grateful nation gives you praise.
No benefit nor medal pin
Begins to fill the debt within
Each fallen tear reflects a glaze
A grateful nation...

renewal continualbreath by breath as we are reborn
we sense soul’s vibrance stretch and yawn
there is nothing we need to do
watching the pulse of bliss renew
kundalini does so endow
grace divine in staid stillness slow
each hue’s new, like the morning dew
watching the pulse of bliss renew
space flickers and time holds its breath
when we imbibe love’s healing meth
with each...

ShepherdsThe treasurer they called Judas,
In his folly and imprudence,
Sold his Master for silver’s stock;
The shepherd who betrayed the flock.
The fisherman they called Peter,
Tasked to build the Church and lead her,
To be her foundational rock;
The shepherd who cares for the flock.
The scholar widely known as Saul
Adopted the new name of Paul;
He saw the light on one...

God's Will
Kyrielle Sonnet
They search, phones held tightly, spellbound
moments parting in the background
phone screens, maybe the newest pill
Time won’t stand still, is this God’s will?
They’re seeking this life’s cutting-edge
is it their hearts and souls they’ll pledge?
from where they stand, life’s all downhill
Time won’t stand still, is this God’s will?
They know that life moves by, passing
finger on...

Peace and beauty begin the day
In morning I hear the Blue Jay speak
The rising sun leaves a bright streak
for miles through the window, I pray
Beauty and peace begin the day
This creation so much to see,
amazes me repeatedly
Gratitude fills my home, I stay
Beauty and peace begin the day
Birds come for their breakfast outside
A feeder, word spreads far and wide
I feel that...

the Dance
dancing in the wind, a stillness
rushing thoughts, tis’ mental illness?
breaking through the peace in soft light
gusts pause over the ghostly night
songs awash with flowing feelings
the hand of God, posing healings
amazing love makes it alright
gusts pause over the ghostly night
trembling gusts of wonder and hope
rustling over hearts so they’ll cope
this music will surely excite
gusts pause over...

Oh, Afterglow, Sweet AfterglowDouble date; in a car’s back seat
could he hear my heart wildly beat?
Love songs played on the radio.
Oh, afterglow, sweet afterglow.
That long first kiss had been so great
I couldn’t wait for our next date.
I daydreamed of how things might go.
Oh, afterglow, sweet afterglow.
Once more he held me in his arms.
“Son of a Preacher Man” had...

Unfailing LoveBorn with a bend to stray away
Deliverance, Lord I need it!
My hope’s in God for each new day
Unfailing love, Lord I see it!
My strength alone, insufficient!
Lord, for help, today I plead it!
Knowing you’re my “all sufficient”
Unfailing love, Lord I see it!
Falling often, so prone to sin
You call to me, “Just release...

God Is Amazing
Unsettled by rustling, wind sings
etched in the heart are gentle wings
breaking through the shadows, a light
God’s amazing peace and insight
Fragments of hope fall on the soul
those who know He has full control
music to hearts who are contrite
God’s amazing peace and insight
Wisdom comes from humble prayers
precious love from the One who cares
beyond our dreams, with love...

Love conquers allWe fall not prey to ego’s ploy,
so we dwell in peace, full of joy.
Notice there’s no energy leak,
when dancing with love cheek to cheek.
The world external, we’ve let go,
having relinquished our ego,
yet we’re strong, not feeble and weak,
when dancing with love cheek to cheek.
Life is but a dream, played in jest,
wherein we’re ensconced in heart’s...

Free but Dead!At dawn, the world began to wake,
Rushed below as the bustle breaks,
A body smiled, drained of its breath,
Hm, It was me - free but dead!
Shocked in silence, they stood in blame—
"How dare she die? What a big shame!"
"So Gross, she died yet wears a smile!"
Hm, It was me - free but dead!
Through heaven's lens -...

Render me Mercy
The sound of music heals my soul
This for sure I do justly know
Have pure Grace from the skies above
Render me mercy with some love
He is a bass player so true
And heals me throughout with his blues
Will his fine show include white doves
Render me mercy with some love
My love adores his nice tunes
She brings him gifts...
