Freedom
There are things I know that you will never be sure about. My life was easy, you have gone through more than me but I understand the world just the same. Every path I take I take with uncertainty and conditional faith, every path I avoid I avoid with thought and assuredness. ...

Eyes
Bright orbs that shimmer, secrets yet untold, They pierce the dark and trace the fading light. Through love and loss, their silent stories hold, A world within each gaze—so soft, so bright. They search the hearts once open, now concealed, Reflecting dreams that linger, lost in fire. Some truths they guard, while others are revealed, Mirrors of passion, sorrow, and desire. They cast...

Glorious Love Time has shewn his face, but free A date the waiting soul to be. Upon thy bed he lay barbed to the sky She wonders if it's time to say goodbye. His finger folds a curl on her hand It's if as though both two should understand. One last look his eyes bid to a view Her loving face...

While The Sky Still Burns
Drink deep the wine of the waking sun— Its golden breath spills over trembling hills, And morning, that fragile and flaring drum, Beats wild against time’s shrinking quills. The hour is ripe with unsung fire, A tapestry woven from wind and flame. Step out — no fear, no false desire — The world does not wait, nor call your name. The robin’s hymn...

Premium Member From where I sit
From where I sit. The dark gray clouds, producing the rain, that continues to tap, against the window pain. The absence of blue, in the sky above, brings dreary thoughts, a life without love. If God in his heaven, could answer one prayer, and send me relief, lift darkness and despair. It’s not a perfect woman, my heart truely seeks, but loving and warm, true heart that...

John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” I walk past the sorrows breaking through my silent plans – plans my heart borrows from the song flowing through my hands… song of light, a seeker, believer resting...

Premium Member Sweet Blessings
The moon and stars surely wept as night fell and my kindness slept, breathing out a prayer of hope to get through the storms, just cope walking on the night, a shadow lonely and lost, oh how I owe my heart and my soul, all that I am to this Savior who became a lamb slaughtered by those He died for making a way...

Why does the sun sympathize
Why does the sun sympathize with the man in the black shirt who is delirious with success? That looking at the window is the door to all happiness For him, an effective way to achieve this is with a pair of shoes And put the gold in his shirt pocket The sun was at my toes as...

You are grounded
You are grounded Here on holy ground The leaves of the trees Are floating in the water Because there are trees Near the lake that my Father Made with his holy hands Many years ago And also the birds are now resting on the trees Branch I spend the morning here on the lake First thing in the morning And there are nobody else At this time of...

Premium Member In Duty's Name - A Linking Pin Sonnet for Memorial Day
Duty calls from valleys deep and wide, Wide like hearts where brave resolve does bide. Bide the storms, through fire and endless rain, Rain of trials met with a calm refrain. Refrain from fear when darkness clouds the sky, Sky holds hope where eagles dare to fly. Fly with honor carved in steel and soul, Soul forged firm in sacrifice and role. Role...
