Here



The sound of the rain
A velvet breeze
Summer comes again
In the light of each morning
All that is needed is complete.

The clouds roll away
Your face in the mirror
You invite me to stay
As dreams become years
All that needed is here.

Is that how you planned
The days spiral away
The future left in your hand
Every path barely seen
All that is needed is now.

Kept



The whisper in the darkness
Rising in the wind
Assuring me of a day
Of your love coming in
My heart is forged in grace.

You are ageless
Chalked into the sand
By the weight of the stone
Delivered by your hand
My eyes are opened to love.

All things are in you
I am a living psalm
Every revelation you gave
Engraved me into your palms
My life is kept in your hands.

Expectant

 


There are no tears hidden in the moon
You bear the wounds of my embrace
My friend was innocent
His splintered hands with ruptured grace
Satisfies my expectant heart.

Now

 

Time is short
The tide turns
Words of understanding
In your fire burns
A letter of your grace

My eyes are fixed
How do I let go
And manage this mercy
With each word you wrote
You open my eyes to love

Into your loving embrace
Grasping at your mystery
Breathing free
Your new life victory
For the time is now.


Release

A spark of love

Ignites a forrest of beauty

Each flame of goodness 

Consumes each cobweb of pain 

Into a fire of divine delight.

Restored

 RESTORED 


Somewhere deep inside our muddled hearts
We know the loss is real
And that truth
When held
Will heal.

Cling

For every sip of my bitter cup
For every tear of my degredation
For every promise I might cling on to
You have come.
