The Wreck On Gastons Hill
I watched as the old train chugged heavily up the hill.
Puffing and puffing the smoke completely shadowing J. Gastons’ saw and
paper mill.
Then I saw what looked to be another train coming...

The Unpardonable Sin
A long time ago the devil rebelled,
caused some of God's angels to go into Hell.
He thought that he could be like God.
His pride dug the pit that removed him from God.
Now he goes around seeking...

SOUL OF JULIA
By the golden bough I watch, Julia,
through the winds of darkness.
You touch the golden leaves with your strange smile.
Where do your thoughts drift on this winter's night?

And do I dream of love?
Yes, often and always;
the possibility of finding love haunts me,
but I realize that in this world of illusion
nothing is as it would first appear.
In our world to have is to...

Bloody Muddy Monday (With Apologies To Rudyard Kipling & Alfred Tennyson)
Assailed upon all sides; trapped, like a rat without his cheese.
Though I wore quite fancy shoes, there were no socks upon my feet,
When I fought the heathens and, met defeat, at the Pillar Of Muhamete.

God Is Not a Church
Is God a church of forgotten people?
Is God a loveless creed?
Does God reach down to the masses
and love them in their need?
People forget how to be people,
singing familiar, unfamiliar songs;
hiding their fears and guilt
behind their...

Bertha's Coming Home Tonight
The old ones have all gone now
up those Golden Stairs.
There's hay stacked for the horses in the barn.
They're grubbing up potatoes
and stacking corn stalks high
'cause Bertha's coming home tonight
up those Golden Stairs.
Willie is laughing and...

Reason For the Nativity
REASON FOR THE NATIVITY
Streets filled with confusion and gloom.
When Jesus was born, there was no room.
Caesar Augustus had decreed
each family return to their own country
to pay their taxes, from debt to be freed.
So, Joseph took...

Conversation Between Father, Daughter About Mother's Death
HOW DEEP IS YOUR TRUST?
What's it like to die? asked the child
looking into her father's eyes.
He held her hand tightly,
and walked away from his wife's grave
bringing the child with him.
Death is the same thing as...

Two Old Women
There were two old women in a town.
The healthy one often wore a frown.
She never helped an earthly soul,
nor saw the beauty of life unfold.
All she thought about was herself.
How she could save and keep...

America's Future
It's no longer good enough
to be American and free.
People now coming to America
imagine riches without loyalty.
It's a "me only" government.
It's a "me only" job.
And the people in power
use their position to rob.
It's a curriculum emphasizing
color...

An American Story
World War II teachers taught children patriotism.
Now America doesn't instruct them
about that "ism."
Instead we debate if allegiance to the flag
is a worthwhile custom or merely a drag.
Americans must be politically correct,
but the President determines whom...

timing is everything

Our Lord Is Coming Back
OUR LORD IS COMING BACK
You search to find new meaning

You travel to gain knowledge
from a distant star.
You go to the moon

Now Is the Hour
Now is the hour for us

Where the Bad Animals Go
WHERE THE BAD ANIMALS GO
One day I asked nine-year-old Keven,
Do all of God's animals go to Heaven?"
He said, Janet, I don't know,
but I think ordinary logic will show
that some of God's animals do go,
and others...

Depression Corn
Grandma planted Indian corn
carefully in the sod.
She had no more money,
but she did believe in God.
Grandma watered what she'd sown.
She said a silent prayer.
A few months later healthy corn
grew in the clearing there.
It fascinated me

To broaden our horizons

Warp to the contact
Await and we shall see

The Artist Pays a Price
THE ARTIST PAYS A PRICE
The artist pays a price for art.
The world won't applaud what he'll do
They'll sneer and pick his art apart.
The world won't accept art that's new.
The jealous will warn him he won't...
