Premium Member Our Place in the Sun
I was an eminent, solar physicist, like the blushing rose, craving renown. Each butterscotch morning I drove to work, and toiled until red sundown. The observatory was the place I loved, keeping watch on our nearest star; Like a pale moon that sits staring all night, its gaze near, anyplace we are. I studied intense sunspots daily, as has...

Like a seedling reaching for the sun's warm rays, Each of you helped me to find my poetic way. I peeked out, apprehensively. Yet you danced and shouted, "Hurray, hurray! Come, with us and pen your way!" I still am growing word by word, Sometimes words flow, other times, so incredibly slow. So many times, I desired to stop. My pen covered and wet with salty...

My Place In the Sun
I only tell of sunny hours... That grace my countenance supine. For dark clouds mask my daily task, Until i welcome back sunshine. While passages of time elapse, As seasons etched upon my face, From springs first...

Where meadows gleam and blaze after a rainfall, beyond balmy hills appears an inimitable rainbow that His mind wanted to create, not manually draw... feel vibrant life as you breath joy and wait for nightfall!

A PLACE IN THE SUN Through each disconcerting walk of life Till all my explorations cease All the vulnerability I’ve got culminate I have lost the kiss of peace. In a place next to the sun I gladly soar Hoping to be near God, ending my inner war. I loathed my ostentatious life Yearning, in spite of all my fears Land me safe in...

Shelter from the shattering storm. I seek you God to keep me warm. Deep in my heart I have no doubt. My wounded soul is turned about. He gathers me in His comforting arms. Shines forth to keep me from all harms. The radiance from His beautiful face lights my journey and brings me grace. With a band of cherubim by His side Lord...
