A World
A world once
So green and fair
spinning in air
now dipped, drenched
in a Savior’s red blood
only way to
cover its darkness
Media
Media
Voices crying out
From every street corner
Vying for attention
Willing to grab, garner
In any way, your eyes
Which leads to
The heart
The inner you, do not
Let the world
Of you have
That part
These voices,
Indiscriminately cry out
Led by the great deceiver
Ceaselessly they shout
From
TV, magazines, airwaves
The Internet
The world in chaos
Do not give in, let
Them have your
Thoughts
Deluded by the greatest
Destroyer of all life
Father of all lies,
Murderer
Do not give them or him
your time
The World & its Media
Walk with blinders
Put on by one more
Clever than man
This Satan,
Do not let him have
Your hand
Do not be led
By his cruel heart
Instead give
Christ
That precious part
Of you
Which shall never die
Your spirit,
Created to be
Like the light
Meant to live in, see
God’s eternal glory!
Praise God!!!
City of New Hope
City of New Hope
Celestial spires
Rise high
As angel choirs
Sound, rejoice
Holy saints walk,
Rub elbows
Side by side
In a city so rare
Where golden is the air
Encircling every face
Settling, leaving a trace
Of its shining glory
Walls there
Sheer, translucent
Rainbowed in ever
Changing colors
Saints live, worship
In joy with each other
The nearness, life of
Their God
Filling every crevice
Perfection’s glory
Fulfilling every wish
Throne room of
Grace
Three working as one
Joy lifts each face
To see their God
Forever
My human words
Are inadequate to say
Express the glory
Of even just one day
Within this place
Where perfection holds
Its complete sway
The world’s divine God
Lives here
Abolishes every care
Hungry, yearning
For you to dare
To aim for such a place
Reach higher
While you still have the time
He sits enthroned,
Waiting
For you to reach for
Him & His home transcendent,
This Heaven’s light sublime!
Leaf’s Lace
Leaf’s Lace
Leaf’s lace
In water
Frozen for all time
Your clear crystal glory
Only brings to mind
A forest’s giant
Rough bark glazed
Painted in winter’s whites
Glistening, waiting
In a cooler’s sun’s light
I walk through
Boots all full of snow
Enjoying the dripping silence
Of this cold day’s glow
Nature waiting
All quiet, sleeping for now
As it comes in unannounced
Spring’s breath blows gently
Stirring to arouse
Lost & Found
Lost & Found
The Lost, afloat
No anchor for
Their boat
Drifting
In the dark
Searching, searching
Only a small light
Gives any sight
Within the heart
Only an empty
Darkened sea
Carries the small boat
Without hope
For land’s safety
But, oh, the found
Never do they run aground
In trouble
Son’s light shines
To light their skies
Eternally overhead
Guided in Hope,
Love, Faith
They enter celestial gates
In Triumph!
Paradise beckons
Perfect Father awaits
Take the next steps
To make sure you sail
your boat through
God’s Golden, Celestial Gates!!
Rainbows, At Last!
Rainbows
Rainbows, bright
This light, enwreathed
Around your head,
So thick,
upon your face
Sometimes only with
Difficulty can I trace
The smile of your lips
This great gift
You give
This life,
Our existence,
The breathing
In and out
Of You
A Spirit so ancient
So Holy
Wishes to dwell
Within your heart
This explosion
Of joy!
Giving to each &
all a complete, Fresh Start
to Life
Receive Him in
let Him retell your story
Do not reject
God’s living, eternal Glory!
At Last!
Swept up
As You pass
In a love
That will last
Beyond the
Moon’s light
Orphaned,
Cold, alone
In darkness I sat
Then You smiled
On a lost child
Found at last
Taken into
Your forever home
Where only
Eternal love is shown,
Radiating
Off your face
I run, in haste
Why do not all people
Literally chase
After You?
For the answer
To this
I have not the slightest
Clue
Why all men do not
Literally stumble,
Tumble over each other
To reach the bottom
Of your throne
