I couldn't find my opening; I had tried all I knew. Eventually,...

All these memories, All the joy, All we love, The real McCoy, A fast paced life, No time to stop, Plenty fizz in homemade pop, We did so much, We crammed it in, Somewhere safe, It's stored within, My mind is all I have to view, Those precious moments, Made with you, I try to think more of them, Instead of the trauma...

As the twilight came into view, Moon’s gentle glow grew and grew, Silencing the music of yesterday As the stars twinkled in play Remembering her joy and peace, Winds blowing their press release.

Pouring out love that will forever last, A...

All I have of lasting value is my heart to give the antiques in the attic just gather dust plastics become brittle and metal to rust cloth disintegrates and if sentiments on cards alone what true value is a poem? as museums need constant renovation -- an indentured in and out curator -- while the heart stays with me everywhere I go -- awake or asleep unlike tides that...

A LASTING BEAT In life, there’s a rhythm one can feel The constant beat, a chain of islands The time signature is almost an avatar Until a last long note in that final bar That hands the baton over to silence But a performance that is always real ...

Poetry is the exquisite expression of exquisite impressions. - Philibert Joseph Roux After the rain falls Cleansing the air, the earth With a music beyond words… My spirit praises the One who created it all for us. After the snow falls Painting the world in wonderful Whispering grace through the heart… My soul thanks the Creator of every snowflake, each sensation. After the leaf...

Many pastors criticize me for taking the Gospel so seriously. But do they really think that on Judgment Day, Christ will chastise me, saying, 'Leonard, you took Me too seriously'? - Leonard Ravenhill (June 18, 1907 – November 27, 1994) His words, they silence the doubt inside His grace, it whispers humility – not pride His love, compares...

Hesitating, I feel his pulse Racing, like the winds breathless Whisper, through the oaks, the pines, Forest’s redemption – erasing the melancholic Fading stars, glazing a summer sky, Embracing the mystery of two hearts, Two lives, pressed together – like petals, Saved in a bible, between the verses, Where yesterday’s psalms call, blessings Pure as the moments just before Moonlight reflects on the sea, a...

Silky sunsets surrender to sweet serendipity's sway As soulmates stumble upon each other's shining way Tender touches tantalize, tempting tender hearts to stay In tender tranquility, where true love's torches sway Luminous laughter lingers, a lovely, lingering sound As lovers' lips lock, lost in love's lush, lavish ground Gentle gazes glide, gathering glimmers of golden light Illuminating the path, where passion's...
