Poetic Messages
#155. I Want You Lord
I want to be with you, O Lord.
I want to sit beside you, Lord.
Jesus, do you remember me
when I knelt under your stars--skies?
I want from you something to say.
I want from you something to write.
Jesus, will you bless me, guide me,
anoint my steps with your healing?
I want you to show me where to go.
I want to see you--Beloved One.
Jesus, Take me. Take me. Take me.
I want only to be with you.
#82. Fresh New Day
Stars show,
sky darkens like midnight navy.
Moon glows,
then comes morning.
Sunlight shines,
waking my life spirits.
Rain drops,
cleansing - for a fresh new day.
#80 Living is Art
Want to express your inner life's beauty?
Become willing to make changes to feel
the personal truth of your life's long reel.
Living is art...work to create it.
#72 Grandma Passed Away Today
At 94, Grandma passed away today.
For weeks, she awakened to call my name.
She recognized her children and their friends.
She said "hello" to all her grandchildren.
She slept again and awakened again.
Her senses seemed all right, moving in flight.
Finally, she closed her eyes and said. "good night."
#159 Is Anybody Listening To Me Cry Is anybody listening to my cryknocking at the door of your heart?I’m asking if you would share my painand rejoice within my claim to joy.
Is anybody listening to my scream?Are you just phantom hosts in my dreams,all alone in the quiet of the moonlightwaiting for someone to come in?
A small voice from a world of mensings out to the traveler’s call.Answering my cry in the stillnessof the night, beneath the star-filled skyunder a world of it all.
Travelers join on the journey that’s going byand knock a second time. #62 Together As One We were together as one. We separated—everything gone. You said I ruined your life. I said when you left, you ruined mine. Many years passed, brought new days. I am reaching out to forgive you. Forgive me and take my hand. Let's be together as one again. #32 My Heart Aches for UnderstandingMy heart aches for understanding to fill lonely voids,deliberating alone, unavailable to others.Nourish my troubled soul and heart with infinite strength,then will come sustenance with love, as I watch and pray.Fill my longings with redemption, but don’t leave me alone.Take me to withdraw to your deserted place to pray.Be my unfailing companion. I want to be yours.
