Girl
Young, pregnant
Crying, hiding, contemplating
Student, daughter, girlfriend, woman
Worrying, praying, dreaming
Painful, joyful
Mother

A soldier breathing his last breath

A scarred wife left behind

A father-less son now contemplating death

A son-less father losing his mind


                             ~Christopher Thor Britt...

The sharpest sight may blind become
All prejudice left behind
When wisdom's tongue becomes dumb
No mercy shall we find

Justice too does sometimes peak from
'round her tattered blinders
When scales are tipped, she then cries out
As freedom slowly binds her

                              ~Christopher Thor Britt...

I see your name here and there
Suddenly, I can’t get you off my mind
I catch your fragrance on the air
Remembering when your lips touched mine

I feel your presence all around
In the night and the sunshine, warm
I would give all, and all again
To hold you once more in my arms


                       ~Christopher Thor Britt...

I am the wind thru the trees

The apple blossom on fragrant breeze

A solitary sunbeam on a cloudy day

The rhythm of life as the tall oaks sway

 

I am the stream teaming with life

And the orchard, sweet, when all is ripe

Before creation was spoken to be

I am that I am, and I am He

I am words on paper, a melody on the air, 
A conscious thought with subconscious intent
I am father, son, brother, friend

I am a poet, singer, and seeker of truth; 
A man with questions, a soul with possibilities
A past without regret, and a future yet unrealized

I am a lover and a leader
A dreamer and a doer
I am me

                           ~Christopher Thor Britt...

Slowly dancing in the wind, swaying as to music
Rocking like a ship at sea to the whims of air and water
     Her face shone bright with the tears of heaven

By consorts of every shape and hue, this elegant lady stood 
White on white, her gown shown among those dressed in like manner
     Looking upward, she opened to the rising sun

                                                                          ~Christopher Thor Britt...

Life breathes life into its children
As gently as a breeze in its unending, unyielding journey
Comes forth from the hidden place.

The very breath of God fills each vessel
And then passes on to the boundless beyond 
From whence it came.

Our spirit, a fire fed by this invisible power
Ever seeks to yoke its strength and harness its potential
Like life, it slips through the fingers of a careless grip.

                                                   ~Christopher Thor Britt...
