JEHOVAH CANDY JOY

JEHOVAH CANDY JOY

i love morning worships when

just before the sky sings and the trees stretch

i get to open your Word and stuff my soul like a child

eating cotton candy at the fair for the first time

everything about You is delicious

IF YOUR DREAMS ARE VAGUE: A Poem

IF YOUR DREAMS ARE VAGUE

if your dreams are vague

then your purpose is vague

then your focus is vague

then your future

if your future is vague

then your passion is vague

then your asking is vague

then your giving

if your giving is vague

then your need is vague

then your hope is vague

then your prayers

if your prayers are vague

then your answers are vague

then your faith is vague

then your God 

From the book THE TRUTH ABOUT LOVE 

PRAY FOR ME

you can hear me now
because i’m silent

you can read my thoughts
because they’re
running down my face

*
sometimes it’s the little things
that can do the most damage

the little hole in your balloon
you huff and puff
but you get nowhere

*
today the winds are stronger than my strength
tonight my weakness is weaker than you think

pray for me
or i’ll be gone by morning

From the book THE TRUTH ABOUT LOVE

Sun Drop

this summer
i hope we end each day
watching the sun drop
satisfied we’ve spent it
giving the sun something
to shine about tomorrow
