Spring’s Trumpets
Orange & yellow
Your colored voices ring
So clearly
Displayed for all to see
Piercing thru to my heart’s senses
Oh the purity in your joy-filled glee!
Trumpets splashed, splayed
Spreading further outward
Declaring that beauty again of
One more of our God’s filled days
I stand absorbing your attractions
So welcome from this world’s distractions
Down leafy vines toward the earth
You throw yourself, never hesitant
Oh, to sleep as you in a bed
So deep & green & pleasant
So, I rejoice as on my way
I am allowed to watch
Your graceful heads sway
Within each passing breeze
Thank you, God, again
For the beauty of your earth
My day I am allowed to begin
Watching as You bring back spring
And the joy which only that can bring
Reminds not only of a physical rebirth
but that in each new reborn spirit
lies Your own unspeakable worth!!
Love’s Sword
Love’s sword flashes left
& right
Truly a most intimidating sight
In some hearts causes joy
In others only strikes pure terror
But,
When it’s through
For each & the every of us,
The me and you
Will it shine so crystal clear
Those who have loved and
Held His Christ so very dear!
The Race
It matters not how
The race begins
It matters only how
The race will end
From the very start
There will be times
That may truly
Almost stop your heart
But never fear
The Scriptures say
There is for race-winners
A much more glorious
Day!
As you step across the
Finish line
Through death’s portals
Or when God ends for all time
satan, sin, pain, evil’s darkness
The greatest prize you will win
You will be allowed forever to trace
Looking into that Most Beautiful Face
The One who loves you the most
All will be allowed to at last boast
In that cross, that shed blood
Which unleashed into infinity
His Passionate & Incomprehensible
UNENDING LOVE!
REVIVAL
Something needs to be
Revived
If it has
Fallen asleep or
Died
Lulled into languor
Or is it a stupor
Apathy maybe
It will take more
Time to fully see
In more of the wealthier
Countries
There is less bending
Of the knee
Faith in a Christ appears
To be dying
More & more we pursue
Earth’s pleasure
To receive a momentary bliss
Ah, the sensation
Of an entertainment’s kiss
Driving forces beyond measure
Revealing more & more
Where are our heart’s true treasures
As perhaps pure faith languishes
More & more numbers show
It’s almost vanishing
Is there hope for it to
Be reviving
For this every true believer
Should be sighing
Return to me, I will return to you
Words of God lying
Available still to be reviewed
In plain black ink on a page
So let’s begin the work
It will not happen by itself
Holy Spirit let us pray
That once again you will
Rule all our nights & days
Lord Jesus, Holy God
It is only through your power
& your blood that any are ever saved!!
REFLECTIONS
We were created to be
Reflections
Mirrors of someone
Greater, Higher, Wiser
Purer
Easter gives us our chance
To once more dance
At the foot of His Throne
Held enthralled within the golden glow
Of His Beauty
But all of that dance
Requires for us to return
To that which so many spurn
Obedience, submission
To God’s will
So reach for that opportunity
To once again live in unity
With someone so beautiful
That submission to Him
Only brings about a win
For you of perfection’s glory!
Easter II
Easter is a time
To remind
Of this earth’s re-birth
A removal of
Our own sin’s curse
It was an absolute win
Of Jesus the living Christ
As He gave us a chance
At a totally new life
A REBIRTH of His Paradise
As He stepped out
Of a darkened tomb
He was giving us a chance
To come out of
That darkened womb
Of our own evil rebellion
Easter is as in
His Holy Book
A telling of that story
Wherein is revealed
God’s greatest glory
His Mercy, Grace &
Forgiveness
His love for us so great
He was willing to put at stake
His own SON’S LIFE
The greatest sacrifice
So on that history-shattering day
We were eternally saved
Out of His Greatest Love
From forever being thrown
Into infinity’s blackest abyss
