Servant
I am but a mere servant, whose master’s sandals I am not worthy to fasten. My visage, grimaced by toiling ground overturned. I climb walls that crumble beneath me, as mistakes blister to the surface. How can I wear his name when the pride I carry is my own? I give the wrong impression, as I pass out...

Basket of fruit
I come to the garden to gather fruit from a tree whose roots have no end. The Gardener robed in light with shades of peach and arbor green, crown of thorns, pierced hands extended. I approach as He hands me the garden garment to wear in the fields of plenty. I spend time with the Gardener as He...

Take a Walk with Me
We find the winding road laced in floral lights and morning dew. Each rock, a stepping stone toward our final step. Grace fills our lungs with every breath, another day of life ends in setting sun. Tonight, the Seventh day begins, in obedience I take my rest, count the blessings as if finding four...

Contentment
Pirouette light dances through the shadows of morning trees to the music of crowned glories and quiet prayers of heartbeat. The night exchanged a vow with morning, the moon with the sun, the sky bears their honor. In the mystery of time, circle of spokes moving forward, we ride its avenues through...

Same Path
Webbed feet waddling toward wet pieces of bread. Tasty morsels for geese straying from the gaggle. I sit next to a stranger, an old lady, snatched by Alzheimer's, glazed over eyes, robotic motions, throwing popcorn, forever lost. Two careworkers sit behind, chattering, keeping an eye out on our...

Homing Instinct
What a refreshing thought, to know you're not afraid of me, like those ruled by control or the need to possess. It's the essence of wings that attracts, but strings of fear that pull the bird out of the sky and strip it of flight, feathers, and song. You let me fly close to God knowing I will return...

Unending
From this silent grotto covered with vines and scented floral dreams, you hear my call. Heaven is the essence in the longing, the edge that keeps me looking toward a higher flight, a longer lasting night, deeper satisfaction. One touch is all it takes for the unending to stretch to eternity

Golden Sunset
A red tailed hawk makes an appearance against the golden sunset sky. The dry farmlands beckon him to find the mice along its endless stretch. Crisp, evening air move puffy clouds along the skyline, as I become one with the vision before me. Another day to give thanks and realize I am part of...

Death
"He will swallow up death for all time, And the Lord GOD will wipe tears away from all faces..." Isaiah 25:8 What is exhibited by death except a robbery of all my joy? Grim reaper you poison my life and take a piece of my soul every single day. You steal the candy from the child, the sun from sky,...

Exponentially Yours
I asked if God loved me and then He sent me you. He had to remain in Heaven. Speechless, my spirit soars now in gratitude. I glean of this, our mystery, with a heart of an apprentice and the eye of star-struck wanderer. Companion of exhiliration you enchant me with your verse. Weaver of dreams, you...
