Premium MemberAll You Thirsty, Come to the Waters

I strive to place God as the be- all and end- all of life
  I know He watches over me as a caring father.
        When storm clouds rise high in my sky,
      I look up to Him for guidance.

Premium Member Too Precious to Contain

Perfume of tremendous worth,
Emptied from an airtight jar,
Left a sweet fragrance in the air,
As roses on a spring morn.

Promptly brought a harsh rebuke,
Labeled as a wasteful sin.
Others had an insightful view,
It’s too precious to contain.

Basic goods must always flow,
Not withheld with selfish greed,
By the “haves” from the “have not” poor
We must respond to their need.

If

Premium MemberWoman, wipe away your tears that flow like rain over the thirsty earth

Woman, wipe away your tears that flow like rain over the thirsty earth,
I see the depths of your soul, amidst fears that dance in the shadows,
We will walk through battles, side by side, in silence and noise,
Together we will find the path to healing and blooming beyond the pain.
Do not let sadness weigh your shoulders

Chasing A Thirsty Dragon


Here’s your prescription,
 a remedy so small.
For worries that weigh heavy,
 and pain that beats all.
The ivy of your troubles,
 the vines of disarray,
So take another dose,
 armor up for today.
It’s a cycle that spirals,
 a loop with no end.
The sticky glue of addiction,
 a false, fleeting friend.
Euphoria dances, 
tempting the mind,
As phantoms of pleasure

Premium MemberThirsty Johnny



Johnny sat bored at a swimming parade,
became thirsty watching the retrograde.
Dipped his head in the pool.
but felt like such a fool.
Silly boy thought it was blue Gatorade!

Premium MemberWhy Not Be Friends

Thirsty Donkey went to the flowing stream,
Shocked to find a tiger, about to scream.
"We are friends, both need a drink",
Tiger said "calm down and think,
Not being enemies, let's be a team".

Premium Memberthirsty valleys

dry thirsty valleys 
sheltered by high dreams around 
~empty rivers through~

grey sorrows slide down
the big warm naked mountains
~stormy above us~

 hopes paint a rainbow  
~pouring raindrops from heaven~
quenched mouths for a while

Premium MemberThirsty

Come to me..
And I will quench.
Umbrella free..
And I will drench. 

Fill your rivers..
Every one.
Morning grass..
I rest upon. 

Cut the rock
In Canyon Grand.
Cool you as
Your skin is fanned.. 

Descend to earth
As sad clouds cry,
Restore the arid 
Desert, dry.

I feed each seedling
Help them grow..
Science spells me
Two H, one O 

I shift with ease
From glass, to sky
Can drip

Premium MemberThirsty For Your Light


Be the rising Moon in my dark nights, for I am thirsty for your light.
 Rumi 

Thirsty as a dry and parched rose in the dessert 
Her liquid light of effervescent blue is calling me  
Invitations of the highest order, she is moon and I am a 
Roseling, seeking skies in a fibrillated night,

Premium MemberThe only shivers thirsty for life that dance in memory

The only shivers thirsty for life that dance in memory,
Are those moments, bathed in the pure light of love,
When the heart, an untamed bird, leaped from its nest,
And we ran through dreams and realities, with a soul in love.
In the silence between us, clocks lose their purpose,
And seconds, like butterflies, break their wings in their
