"The Payload" 

The payload 
came crashing down
like rain expelled
from the fat belly 
of a ruinous pregnant cloud 
bilious with buxom promise

it came crashing down 
like school fish released 
from the tight confines
of a course rope...

When we met, I surely knew the yearning
Breathlessness erasing my weariness
Feelings, dreams, soothing every discerning
You silence doubts, discourage dreariness
Deep inside, I long for your spirit’s smile
I feel so thankful for this song of grace
Past all...

Tears, softly falling,
Grieving for the dreams,
Beyond knowing,
Dreams, silent, growing,
Within the spirit,
Where Jesus love is flowing,
In frequent gestures,
Wise and everlasting,
Stirring the light that lives,
Because His love restores,
His grace, in a moment,
Brings more joy than a heart,
Can...

In the heart of the Carolina mountains
There lived a boy whom she adored

More wonderful or pleasant

He gave her heart a...

In the oaks, with leaves
Waltzing to melodies
Notes of light, joy, faith
Reflected in His grace
As He rains down His love
Across the souls of ones
Who know Him as their God
The Savior of the world
The...

Compassion and understanding,
To give someone besides just me,
Music of light and laughter,
Notes of joy and peace,
A sense of assurance that love,
Yes, love can overcome anything!

I pray for the silence,
Still as the...

Presence my companion
Rising I put my two feet
On the ground

Beckoning to the heart – wonders so breathtaking,
Lifting the spirits with flakes like glitter, lustrous
Silence, gentling the thoughts and the scene,
Where feelings flood the night with soft and tender
