Prompted By the Sun

life rises from its shadows
the weight of winter forgotten
frantic chatter, a staccato
such joy found
just outside my door
a morning of my becoming
sparrows dancing in the yard
stir flights of fancy
sparrows dancing in the yard
a morning of my becoming
just outside my door
such joy found
frantic chatter, a staccato
the weight of winter forgotten
life rises from its shadows


Premium Member Purple Blue Prompted Picture View- -

God sees us in a picture prompted view…
Royal blues of blacken purple hues
I caress you aside of the universal clouds
I embrace you in the darkness
Of your gentle uplifting silhouette
As the moon winks over my right shoulder
Up I lift you ever higher
I cherish our true selves
As our shaped naked spirits feels the caressing of 
Royal blues of blacken purple hues
Of our gentle uplifting silhouette
blacken purple of Royal blues hues
As I uplift and embrace you
Twit the clouds, the earth and the moon…

Prompted By a Quote

As an answer to the all too common vitriol and truculence
I seek to anesthetize such behavior with the gifts God gave me
From a mouth that can produce venom flows milk and honey
From a base and vile self seeking "quid pro quo"
Comes the blessed parry of a forgiving heart
When people ask why I don't act as they would
The only response I could ever give is...
"Because God didn't give me what I deserve."
