Knowing Heart

There’s a knowing in your heart
There’s a kindness growing
There’s a truth right from the start
The vows you made are sowing

The seeds of goodness promise
A better way of life
The songs of promise mesmerize
The darkest depths of strife

Listen to your heart, listen to your soul
Let your true-nature guide you
Through the delusions of this world
Endure with kindness, clarity

A Journey in Motion

I lace my shoes 
tight around trembling feet.
Morning fog drifts over the edges of the road 
and I stepped into the chill.

Each pace is a heartbeat, each breathes a quiet prayer.
The way extends beyond sight, its outlines softening into mist, yet I move unwavering.

Memories press like weights, old doubts whisper at my back but the

A FORCE SO POWERFUL

I didn't understand,
God was holding my hand.

I was lonely,
God was holding my hand.

I was hungry,
God was holding my hand.

I was sick,
God was holding my hand.

I was depressed,
God was holding my hand.

I was anxious,
God was holding my hand.

I was scared,
God was holding my hand.

I was bitter,
God was holding my hand.

I was regretful,
God was holding my hand.

Ode to Petunia

Petunia is the plain little sister
who gets overlooked and passed over.

She’s not the pretty one,
always quiet and reserved,
not classy, fancy or graceful.
She takes backstage at every turn.

No games, no false pretenses.
She’s frumpy, floppy and flimsy.
Her scent is unrefined,
not confused with real perfumes.

She’s somewhat of an ugly duckling
but when the going gets tough,
we can’t help but

When my Life Changed

                                         When my Life Changed

          

Wary Glances are Cast;

Wary glances are cast;
They look at me now
But by tomorrow -
I'll be as dispersed vapor.

If rumors shot bullets -
I'd be in the grave.
Thank you, Lord – I'm alive
But I wonder, what for?

The Promise He Had

They said he couldn't the path was too steep,
But dreams don't belong to the ones who sleep.
With fire in his heart and a storm in his eyes,
He walked through the shadows, aiming for skies.

A man on a mission, his purpose was deep,
A promise to honor, a vow he would keep.
He stumbled and fell, time after

Popeye

The sailorman named Popeye
better known as Olive Oyl’s guy
seemed nothing more than an affable fishmonger
until he downed spinach to make him stronger

A CRACK IN THE SIDEWALK: When My Life Changed Poetry Contest

A CRACK IN THE SIDEWALK
Poem written for and submitted to “When My Life Changed” Poetry Contest, Kai Micheal Neumann, sponsor.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Early morning, sun dripping gold over weathered fences.
     I was running, feet rhythmically striking the pavement.

Then a sudden jolt, my foot caught in a yawning crack.
     I remember

The Day the Beast Lost

I woke each break with cast a shadow on my chest,
a nameless weight that stole my needed rest.
It spoke in lies I dared not try to fight,
and turned the morning darker than the night.

I laughed in rooms so no one saw the ache,
while every smile felt brittle, thin, and fake.
It fed on doubt, on all

Nature of The Beast

It stalks in silent corners of the mind.
A whisper, jagged, dark, and undefined.
Its claws creeps walls we dare not show,
eyes ecstatic where our hearts should glow.

It scoff on mistrust, on every hidden fear,
gnawing at the edges of what we hold dear,
A silent growl underneath the laughing sound.
A truth too fierce to face the day unbound.

Which Hill Will You Climb

If your choice is to climb the higher hill
You’ll need more supplies and a stronger will
For as you climb supplies will diminish
And some will be needed when you finish

If you’re looking for fun and a small thrill
You’ll find it better to choose a small hill
Choose one you can top in just a short span
With several

Broken

Never imagined an emotional blow
Could crush a bubbly gorgeous girl's world,
For whom the universe was an enchanting lore,
With bird's songs and flowers in the vase!

                       The garden turned barren,
    

Strength to turn and walk away

I have told my story before in a different way, long before I became Speaks Volumes. I still consider it original, as new readers may pass it to someone that NEEDS to hear it.....
