Deafening rapid fire blasts Shatter the transluscent margins of Silence with Harrowed cries gasped Howls echo from one side to the other Of the heart’s vast arena with a repeating chorus of ruing Pleas Of the gone lost Groaning for home in...

In the Twilight of Her Tears
In the Twilight of Her Tears by Michael R. Burch, age 19 In the twilight of her tears I saw the shadows of the years that had taken with them all our joys and cares ... There in an ebbing tide’s spent green I saw the flotsam of lost dreams wash out into a sea of wild despair ... In the scars that...

Coming Back to You
You keep searching for me, On streets of hopelessness, endlessly. Your eyes see through my life’s despair, A silent witness to the burdens I bear. Your heart longs for my return, Oh Lord, your love forever burns. Reach out your hands; don’t let me fall, I hear your voice, your faithful call. You keep searching, though I stray, Your eyes watch through my coldest...

A prodigal son prays
A begging bowl, I scarce can pay thy debt, Let me then indebted to thee remain For life, to cherish thy bounties I get, If I wish to give, wonder what’ll ye gain? So then, I opt to sing paeans of praise— A lay man plunged in hankering a heart, A grateful toast to thee is all I...

Prodigal sheep
Jesus, you say bring home my sheep You say be a shepherd like perfect You I say my sheep have gone prodigal They have my credit card, I say resigned At least they buy cheap wine on my dime They’ve discovered tobacco, too They won’t come home, I’ve tried My mind has escaped me, I bleat But, my body has returned to the...

Premium Member Return of a Prodigal Friend
I lit a candle and began to pray that Monday morning and a sense of familiarity hit me without a warning when from back of the church, I heard a distinct voice. It was one I hadn't heard in decades, but I dare not rejoice until I knew for sure it was Jordan, a friend from the past. Had he...

Prodigal Son
The need for the paddock to be cleared, was bad. The old man tried digging, but failed and he was sad. For he was too old and his son was no longer here. His son was innocent, but he was in jail for a year. He had written to his son, telling him about the...
